Citizen Kain: Hi, my summer has been very nice, I played in a lot of great gigs and festival and I also worked a lot in the studio to prepare my upcoming releases.
Electronic Groove: Tell us what led you down the path of wanting to be a producer and DJ?
Citizen Kain: Well, I was a guitar player and singer in metal bands, I was already composer in this style of music, so when I discovered techno and house, it became obvious to compose and deejaying.
Electronic Groove: Recently you came up together with the Beatfreak label boss D-Formation again and remixing an original track by D-Nox, Lonya, and Dj Zombi. Tell us how did you get involved in this project?
Citizen Kain: D-Formation is a good friend, we already worked together several times on tracks or myself as a producer for Beatfreak, so when he asked me to remix the track with him, I accepted without hesitation. I’m also an old fan of the music of D-Nox, it was a pleasure to remix him and his friends.
