Ballistik Radio with RP, Dan Ro & David Ding

Dan Ro

If music was an animal, what would it be and why?

It my music was an animal it would be a very irate and grumpy one as it gets stuffed in and out of a CDJ every Wednesday night

If you had a banana, 2 left ankle socks and a dwarf, where would you take them and what would you do?
I’d remove the banana from its skin, stuff the dwarf inside the banana skin, put the dwarf stuffed banana inside one of the socks, which I would then put inside the last sock, go to a birthday party and play the strangest game of pass the parcel since the game was invented.

What has been your biggest inspiration during your dance music career?
The crowds I play to

If music was an animal, what would it be and why?
A hippo cus they bang around so much. Music that aint banging aint worth listening too ?

If you had a banana, 2 left ankle socks and a dwarf, where would you take them and what would you do?
To a cliff, drop them and pretend it was all a bad dream

What has been your biggest inspiration during your dance music career?

If music was an animal, what would it be and why?

Probably one of those tiny little fluffy dogs that people shave and give weird hair do’s to, dress up in clothes and even make matching luggage for…….and in the same way gender and species confused dogs are there for people to express themselves through, music is the same……or not.

If you had a banana, 2 left ankle socks and a dwarf, where would you take them and what would you do?

I would slice the banana into quarters, chuck away the inside and just keep the skin. I would then use the ankle socks to line the outside of the banana skins to make a set of fluffy rave style leg warmers for my Shih-tzu. I would then use the dwarf as a human loin cloth and go to fashion week to showcase my latest collection……“Shit-Socks” and “Man-Rags……small men for big boys”.

What has been your biggest inspiration during your dance music career?

Different things have inspired me over the years. When I first started out it was the music, then as I started DJing and Producing it was other DJ’s and Producers who had mastered their craft. Now days it is without doubt the punters and clubbers that inspire me more than anything. Every set I play and every track I produce is created with them in mind.
