Interview by Amanda Ferrario

DJs travel a lot. They are probably the people who travel most frequently, sometimes even twice in one night. In fact, they often play in a location and 4 hours later in a total different country. 

We are used to see them in the “god-is-a-dj” mode at clubs and festivals, before huge crowds, but how are DJs when they get off the decks, in their private traveling routines, out of the spotlight?

For the first episode of this series we interviewed tINI (Desolat), one of the most acclaimed female artist in techno and house music.

Where were you before this interview? Where are you at now? Where will you be next?

Before, in my bed in ibiza.

Now? getting ready for my beach party “tINI and the gang” in ibiza.

Tomorrow I’ll be flying out to Italy, Riccione for a gig at “Cocorico.”

Cosy pants (never shorts, the spanish love way to cold AC), sneakers, shirt & hoddie. sunglasses if necessary.

Sleep or movie when flying?

Preferred airline?

Lufthansa.

Airport favorite food (for lack of a better choice…)?
