What's the future of DJing? We think the future of DJing is gonna be all digital.
Favourite app? SoundHound - always cool when you hear a song to get to know who produced it.
Discovery of the year? We just found out that Einstein's theory about the speed of light isn't right. That's probably the discovery of the century.
Rediscovery of the year? Tiësto's 'Magik Six' compilation. This is where dance music all started for us.
Awkward Moment? Missing our flight to Switzerland for Sonic because of a heavy three-country weekender schedule. The first time we ever missed a gig.
Style or substance? Both of them are equally important. Because if you really like music, you talk music.
Pet Hate? People who are really single-minded. Because it's nice to be open to everything, to enjoy life and everything in it.

“2011 was amazing,” say the duo. “Our main focus was to play as many gigs as we could and release as many tracks as possible.” A simple-but-effective strategy, which worked wonders, judging by reactions from festival audiences, (including 25,000 people at Hard Bass), who lapped up the stripped-back, industrial edge that they add to the chugging hardstyle paradigm.
Next year, Psyko Punkz will be “going strong, like in 2011,” part of which involves a mysterious new development. “We are currently working on a real cool project that we can't say anything about yet. But our fans will see.”
An intriguing prospect, and one that can only bolster Psyko Punkz' flourishing profile. TRISTAN PARKER
