Everyone on this planet should be allowed to do, say, feel, think, and believe whatever the hell they want to, on two conditions:
1) That they don't hurt anyone else in the process of doing, saying, feeling, thinking and believing whatever the hell they want to.
2) That they don't go around trying to make other people do, say, feel, think, or believe what they do.
I guess my preaching this for all to see kind of makes me a hypocrite when you consider condition 2. But I just thought it needed saying. :)

I might talk shite each time I speak,
But when I dance, I rock.
Go then...for there are other worlds than these...
We are ka-tet. We are one from many.
My show is called The Rebirth Session, what with that old tale in the bible of Lazarus coming back to life and everything. I'm sorry to say I don't choose the DJ name of Lazarus for any religious reason in particular, but suffice to say my reasons for choosing it are personal.
All my shows are now available for downloading (thanks a million to Stella!), I'll be adding the links to them as soon as I sort them all out with tracklists etc. But for now, here's hopefully enough to keep you going for now!:

Also very big on Family Guy, the Simpsons, South Park, most sitcoms (American, the English ones are shit), and anything that generally throws morality aside in pursuit of entertainment. I also love Buffy & Angel. It's not just for girls you know.

My parents: I think this one goes without saying.
Moby: Put simply, without him, nothing, no musical obsession for me. The first artist who's work I could genuinely feel a special bond with. I can't think of any other producer in the history of EDM who has conquered more genres than he has. And to do it in the way he has, by stamping his own style onto each of them, is something I doubt any producer could hold a candle to for the rest of my lifetime.
Paul Oakenfold: Put simply, without him, I wouldn't be a DJ. I first heard him on Radio 1 back in 1992 playing at a Dutch event with Fierce Ruling Diva and Altern8. He kicked off with the Perfecto mix of Deacon Blue "Your Town" and as they say, the rest is history. Suddenly, I wanted to be a DJ. Seven years later when I finally saw him DJ in the flesh at Gatecrasher, I was reminded of this, and it was shortly afterwards that I began to badger my then-housemate to teach me to mix. Oakey gets a lot of stick these days, and he doesn't deserve it. Because without him the scene today would be a lot different.
Stephen King: Unquestionably the finest living writer of the English language. Anyone who dismisses him as a horror hack probably hasn't read much of his work. I read a hell of a lot, but not one writer has been as prolific and consistent over a 30 year period than him. His work has got me through a few tough times, has enriched my life, and inspired my sense of awe in ways I doubt even he could put into words. But he probably could.
