DJ Aero: We met at the beginning of the Methods of Mayhem tour. RS: Tommy, how do you go from heavy metal to heavy dance? Tommy Lee: I’ve always loved electronic music, whether it’s incorporating that within a song or a drum solo or whatever. I haven’t really gone from anything to anything – it’s always been in my blood. RS: So when you two perform, do you tag team on two sets of CD decks?

RS: Where do you find your visuals? Tommy Lee: You know what, it just depends. I try to find whatever fits the audio we’re playing. We’ve got everything from disgusting filthiness to the most beautiful images you’ve ever seen in your life to underwater stuff to whatever goes with the music.
