Producer/DJ/rapper Pase Rock has been known to DJ at private parties for Snoop, JT and Li-Lo; occasionally be Spank Rock’s right-hand man, earned his DJ stripes on Steve Aoki’s Dim Mak label, wants to call his next album Slutface and runs rings around the Hollywood party posse. Crumpet chat to the mischievous Brooklyn bad ass.

How did you introduce yourself to music?

I was introduced to me at a young age via my family, god bless them.

For all the tone-deaf people out there, describe your music.

Hmmm. Basically its hip hop. But dancey hip hop. I like to dance and I’m a professional DJ so it tends to be more geared toward the dancefloor more often than not.

You’ve DJ’ed at private parties for Snoop Dogg, Justin Timberlake, Playboy and Lindsay Lohan – what’s been the funniest thing you’ve witness at any of them?

I once watched Kate Moss do lines off the penis of Ronnie Darko from Spankrock, amazing!

Who runs in your social circles? I run myself in social circles…

You always have awesome titles from your 2003 album Bullshit As Usual, the 2007 Lindsay Lohan’s Revenge to song titles like The Motherfucking Rave Is Over. How do you come up with such brilliance? And why? Do you like taking the piss?

Yeah I love taking the piss. I think something is wrong with my kidneys I have to pee so much. You know that’s not really an expression we use in America, taking the piss. Anyway, who knows how I come up with stuff. A lot of times I just take it from conversations I have with people or whatever. You have to laugh at life, it’s pretty comedic if you take a step back and remove yourself from it once in awhile.

What music are you feeling now? hmmm, my friend just sent me this Gladys

Knight song and it’s pretty amazing its called “The Makings of You” so good.

Last record you bought? Eli Escobar’s “Glass House 12″.

You got a new album in the pipeline?

I hope so. I have a record finished and I want to release it but who knows what will happen tomorrow. Everybody has been dying lately. So what will be will be, you know. I want to call the album Slutface but I dunno if that will fly. It sounds kinda mean. Like I don’t wanna listen to an album called Slutface so I’ll have to think of something else. The music is really beautiful and genuine so the title will have to reflect that. What do you think? I feel like I come up with good titles every day but I always forget them.

Finally, can you do a little rap about Crumpet?

I fucking hate crumpets so, no.

Thanks for you time!

No, thank you for the interview!
