Your music has landed on some major labels in the past few years, like Yoshitoshi, Last Night on Earth, Circus, Suara, Knee Deep In Sound, Bedrock... the list goes on. What are some of your proudest moments thus far?

Right now, this whole process with Eric and Pryda has to be up there. I’ve just been signed to his management as well, so they took me under their wing. They want me to release more on the Pryda Presents sublabel and they want me to tour with Eric more. That’s a real dream come true.

It’s all been great, but just seeing people actually supporting and buying music means the world to me. It’s what this is all about. People are actually enjoying what I’m making and they're feeling something with it. The music does something for them and they’re reacting to it on the dance floor. There are so many other DJs and other producers out there that could be in my shoes, so I take every day as it comes and try and take it all in. I’m really happy with this moment, but the way I see it going, there’s also plenty more to come and I’ve got to work hard to get there. So once I reach the highest I dream of reaching, I’ll look back and be proud that I’ve actually done that.

What are some of your goals for the future and what do you hope to accomplish?

I want to go on to own my own label and build a respected brand around Cristoph. Model my career on Eric’s, in a way, as well as the many others that have come before me. I want to build this brand that thousands of people want to come see and the demand for the next Cristoph record is high. So that’s the dream, I guess that’s everyone’s dream who comes into it. But dream big - that’s what I always think.
