John 00 Fleming chats to I Like Music
ILM: And I guess over the years you've fine-tuned your ear for that sound?
JOHN: Yeah, as I evolve… because if I'd stuck with the sound I loved ten years ago I wouldn't be where I am today. People would be like, 'there's John still playing his old-skool set'. But as I naturally evolve when I play a DJ set I you learn what direction you want to go within your set, and then you go off and hunt for them and know in the back of your mind what you're looking for. So you hear it and think that's what I was looking for to fill that gap in my set, so you naturally take another step toward where you're evolving.
Producers do make music especially for me, which is nice. So they listen to your radio sets or hear you play live and think they'd not have gone in that direction, and they surprise me sometimes. For example, one guy who made music that's hard as nails suddenly made a more passive track and I said, "I wasn't expecting that kind of track from you" and he said, "well, you inspired when I heard you play last," and that's really cool and really exciting, knowing that you inspire new producers.
