One of the best straight-up house DJs and producers on the circuit, Erick Morillo continues to ensure his Subliminal Sessions reign supreme on the world's dancefloors.

By day, Erick runs the Subliminal Records empire. By night, he is one of the most in-demand DJs on the planet and can play up to 30 dates a month.

Raised in Colombia, then New Jersey, Erick was weaned on a musical diet of Latin rhythms, reggae and hip-hop and started DJing at weddings at the age of 11.

What's your best achievement to date? "I'd have to say it was when I bought my mum a house. I'd put her through a lot of s*** when I was younger and like every kid I said, 'when I grow up I'll buy you a house.'

"To be able to do that was the most fulfilling moment so far."

What drives you?

"I'm a workaholic. Sometimes I'll be in the studio 24/7 - but when it comes to enjoying myself I can keep up with the best of them.

"At Radio 1's party in Miami last year, I was standing on top of the bar, two Tequila bottles in my hands, just pouring it into clubbers' mouths.

"I'm fed up with all these faceless producers in dance music. It's time we took it to another level and gave people someone to identify with. This music should be as big as hip-hop."

What was the thinking behind Subliminal?

"I wanted to create a label that was known for quality music. I wanted people to be able to go into a store, buy a Subliminal track and know that they've got a quality record."

What has been your defining DJ moment?

"I was playing the closing party of the Space Terrace, Ibiza, straight after September 11. I ended the night with Frank Sinatra's New York, New York.

"People were crying and waving American flags, everybody was singing - it's my most emotional memory as a DJ."

Who is your most famous fan?

"Puff Daddy came to Ibiza about three years ago and didn't really know much about the house scene.

"He'd been going to all these trance clubs but didn't realise that something more funky could get the same type of reaction.

"I was playing the closing set on the Space Terrace, he came along and loved it, so we started hanging out.

"Puffy's a real hard worker - we'd go out to a party, then an after-party, then an after-hours party, then we'd go into the studio to work. I swear that guy never sleeps."
