Nominated for Best Drum n’ Bass DJ and Best Local Tune at Perth Dance Music Awards in 2009, Australian-based DJ and producer Q-Bik is in town as a guest for the Phatfunk session. Here, he shares a minute of his time with us.

As a child: I loved peanut butter and wanted to become a pilot.
First job: Newspaper delivery boy.
Rule for life: “The earth is but one country and mankind its citizens.” We’re all equal no matter what.
Stupidest trend: Tight jeans and emo.
Happiest moment: Completing all the items on the list of life goals I wrote at 18.
Last thing that made me stop and think: How we are more connected to each other than ever before.
Can’t live without: Music or Captain Crunch cereal.
Hum this tune in the shower: “Somebody I Used to Know,” by Goyte featuring Kimbra, or Dr. Dre’s Chronic 2001 LP.
People always assume I’m: intimidating and hard to approach.
But I’m really: welcoming and easy to talk to and get along with.
Best gig I have ever been to: Origin Festival, New Year’s Eve 2010/2011, Perth.
Last lie: I’ll be home before the gig finishes.
Most inspirational person: My dad.
Most annoying thing I have to encounter everyday: The toaster not giving me the perfect toast.
Would like to be remembered as: Passionate, positive and inspiring.
In 20 years: I hope to still be living and following my dream with music and sharing it with a wonderful family of my own.
