How did these tracks influence your life, your career? A: Well, in the beginning it seemed so easy and nice to find 15 older tunes that really influenced me and mix them. But then I realised that some of this very special songs are Techno, some Pop, some Ambient and some Drum'N'Bass and basically there is no chance to put them in a nice flow. So I decided to use the soulful influencers, then my folder became more fit to mix. I can confirm that every song on this mix actually played by me at gigs and home and everywhere thousands times, it only includes those tunes that u want to wake up with, the ones that gives u goosbamps today too, the ones that are literally the soundtrack of my life. Q: You're part of a movement in your country Israel. DJ, producer, promoter. How would you describe the development of electronic music in Israel? A: I can talk really long about this one. I've been here for almost 20 years now as active DJ, Party Promoter, content manager and label. I love the israeli scene, it's a small country but extremely full with electronic music enthusiasts and talents. Since ever there been great clubs and venues here and every respected DJ was here at least ones. The main change that local scene experienced is switch from Psy Trance leading community (from 1993 till 2008) to Techno / House people nowdays. Before 2010 we have been a Psy leading country and with help of some successful talents world got to know that we are great at other electronic genres as well. I'm happy to be one of this first ambassadors too, with my Weekend Heroes project we been one of first Israeli Techno/House acts to travel the world. Q: Which future projects are coming on your label Beat Boutique and which exciting news can we expect for DJ Zombi? A: I've been working too much solo in the studio since last 16 months and thats why many exciting things happening now. I have currently Top 5 Electronica record "Broken" released on Guy J's avant grade label Armadillo and my upcoming releases coming on Anjunadeep, Replug, Sudbeat and my own Beat Boutique of course, so as you see all good in the Hood. 2020 must be a good year, I'm very positive about that!
