“One of the things that I realized from a business stand point is very early on in my career, you know, everybody gets ripped off. I’ve had horror stories of managers and labels and so on and so forth I wanted to create my own entity where I can control my music, control my own destiny,” Sanchez explains. “I’m working on a project called, an album called Roots, it features a track I’ve just put out called ‘Troubleman.’ For me, it’s about going back into my underground roots, everything from deep house to a little bit of tribal. Modernizing it.”​

Size Matters is taking over Montreal with two shows, one during the day time at the Beach Club from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm, and later at the New City Gas from 10:00 pm to 3:00 am. Both parties offer the DJ'ing skills of the Size Records boss Steve Angello, fresh from the One Last Tour as part of the Swedish House Mafia.
