Jozi experiences colourholi one Colour and Neon festival take Joburg by storm with DJ fresh WITH its origins traced back to the early beginnings of the Hindu religion, the Holi One Colour and Neon Festival is now a glob-ally- celebrated event that unleashed a kalei-doscope of colour clouds in Jozi on May 1.

Over the years, the religiously-adopted funfair has been customised into the We Are ONE secular celebration that seeks to unify music lovers from all walks of life and what better time to bring music, light and love to Johannesburg than now?

Trace witnessed thousands of free-spir-ited powder-wielding party animals detonat-ing colour bombs among the music-loving masses. After successfully managing to meander through the rambunctious crowd, we caught up with legendary SA producer DJ Fresh for an exclusive Q&A:

after effectively diversifying your fan base and musical aesthetic, how do you see your sound evolving further? I’ve been one of the best chameleons in the industry in terms of either having to reinvent myself or reposition myself, while staying relevant to one market and growing in another.

I can play five different gigs in one night to different crowds or play five different genres of house music so the ability to adapt is very important in our industry.do you have any secret rituals or warm-up routines before each set? I honestly don’t. Everything I’ve done has been spur-of-the-moment and I think it’s very important to be able to read the crowd and adapt your set to the previous one.what has been your craziest groupie experience to date?I’ve had bras and panties thrown into the DJ box. I’ve had a guy come up to me and say:

“please sign my girlfriends’ boobs, she loves you so much.” On one occasion, it rained bras during my set and I left the booth with six.where do you draw most of your inspiration? Mostly from the fans that take the time to either drop me an email or stop me before a set to tell me how much of an impact I’ve made on their lives. A doting fan once told me that my Fresh House Flava 4 album helped kick their drug habit while in rehab. Life-changing stories like that make my work all the more rewarding.

From the onset of your career, who has been your most influential art-ist/producer?That would have to be DJ Oskido because he gave me my first big break in 1992 when I was a starry-eyed 18 year old.

I also admire how he, too, has managed to stay relevant over the years. are there any international artists you’d like to collaborate with?Calvin Harris does special things in terms of music and EDM so he’s definitely the guy I’d team up with.

InspIrIng: DJ Fresh and another DJ wow the crowds.

ALL systems are a go for pop princess Britney spears and new age female lyricist Iggy Azalea, who will both appear on the legendary

billboard music awards stage on sunday to perform their new single Pretty Girls
