  • WMC 2006

    Me with DJ/dance music innovator John Digweed [Biography]


    Well, what can I say? WMC 2006, my first WMC ever, was a total blast. For those that don’t know, WMC stands for Winter Music Conference, and it’s the biggest annual electronic music conference in the world, held in Miami every March.

    Veronica Corningstone: Yes.
    Ron Burgundy: Ohh, it’s the deep burn! Oh, it’s so deep! Oh, I can barely lift my right arm ’cause I did so many. I don’t know if you heard me counting. I did over a thousand.
