M.A.N.D.Y. - DJ Awards 2009 nominees

M.A.N.D.Y. are amongst the nominated artists for DJ Awards 2009. On this occasion they were interviewed to find out more about them.

Q: Congratulations on being nominated in the DJ Awards 2009 – what was your response when you heard the news?

A: The call got us when we were on an expedition in Greenland and I tell you, we couldn’t believe it! We sat there after days and days of not talking, looking at each other and smiling through our frozen beards. We couldn’t talk as it would have been a danger, because we would have risked that our tongue will frozen in 23 seconds. It was a very special moment we will always remember…

Q: The DJ Awards has some special awards not voted for by the public – one of which is “Best Ibiza Track” – what is your biggest tune of the Summer so far?

A: Unfortunately there are no real big hits yet. Lots of good tracks, but nothing that is crossing all boundaries and genres… maybe there’s still one to come…

Q: The DJ categories are decided by the voting pubic. If you win, what will you do to thank your fans?

A: We could take one year off from DJing and write a postcard to every single fan!

Q: What is the best thing you’ve ever won?

A: When we were younger we won quite a lot of medals in ski and judo competition

Q: Where are you DJing in Ibiza this summer?

A: Our first gig was at Wonderland, which was a very nice night. Then we played for Monza – we’ll be back there for the closing on 1 October. And we are playing Subliminal Sessions at Pacha in August. So another fulfilling year on the party island…

Q: The winners will be gathering at Pacha on 24 September to collect their awards – would you rather be raving in the main room, grooving in the funky room, chilling on the roof terrace or splashing the cash in the VIP?

A: Those who know us know that we are everywhere and nowhere. Like ghosts we run around and disappear the minute you see us. The fact we are two makes it easier. There’s always one M.A.N.D.Y. somewhere…

The DJ Awards 2009 will take place at Pacha/Ibiza. To find out more about the event go to www.djawards.com
