The master is back – one of the most famous exports from Argentina of our times, Hernan Cattaneo, will hit the decks of “Exit” on Friday. Before that – a talk with him about South America, childhood dreams, a new label and even Warsaw.

Do you remember your first encounter with electronic dance music?

Yes, of course. It was via the records of Giorgio Moroder and “Kraftwerk”. It all sounded completely different from anything else back then.

When did this music come into Argentina? Were you among the first witnesses of the arrival?

Electronic music arrived to Argentina in the seventies. House music came in the late eighties, and yes, I was one of the first DJs to play that new sound.

When you were a child, what did you think you would do in 2009?

I can honestly say that when I was very young I told my dad that I was going to be a DJ.
