If you're anything like us, you'll be obsessed with Jonas Blue's brand-spankin-new album Blue. It's just back-to-back bops, isn't it? So, to celebrate the fact our fave producer-type person's finally served us the Friday night playlist we deserve, we thought we'd grill him with a load of questions based around the track titles.

This was a very impulsive decision, but something we in no way regret. We're so into it, in fact, we're gonna make this our thing. If anyone can think of a more snappy name than 'heat's Tracklist Quiz', give us a shout.

Drink to You: What's your go-to drink of choice?

A Moscow Mule. I love a good Moscow Mule. Mojitos are a bit overrated now. I just feel a Mule’s a bit glam, isn’t it? It’s a boujee drink.

Mama: What's the best piece of advice your mum's ever given you?

To fold my clothes, because it comes in very useful these days when I pack my suitcase. I have the neatest suitcase you’ll ever see. Whenever I go to a hotel I don’t even need to unpack; they’re folded so perfectly. It took me 28 years to learn the art of unpacking. It’s more than folding. There’s order. It’s all very thought-out.

Perfect Strangers: What's the weirdest thing a fan's ever done for you?

I was at Ultra Japan – this massive gig – and there were massive banners people were holding with my name. A girl nearly passed out from crying. That was a moment. Not weird, but a memorable moment. She made my life.

I See Love: Have you ever written anyone a love song?

Yeah, I did one called Angel of Love back in 2006. F*ck. I was 15/16; I wrote that about a girl from school.

Polaroid: If you could freeze frame one moment in your life to keep as a Polaroid, what would it be?

That’s a deep one. It’d be when I was younger; a family photo. Everyone would cherish that, right?

Desperate: What are the most desperate measures you've gone to to secure yourself a date?

I was banned from driving years ago and I was seeing this girl from Scotland at the time. She was staying at a friend’s in Cambridge and I got a taxi just to have a date. The date was terrible and I got a very long taxi home.

By Your Side: If you had to be handcuffed to any celeb for 24 hours, who would it be and why?

Emily Ratajkowski, for obvious reasons.

Wild: What's the wildest night out you've ever had?

I played at EDC Vegas. I did my set, one of the biggest gigs I’ve done, then we got a helicopter out after my set to have a party. That was pretty wild.

Wherever You Go: What's your favourite place you've ever visited?

Japan. I love Japan. The people, the food, the shopping. The culture, everything about it. It’s so beautiful; you leave there feeling amazing. That place is the one.

Purpose: What did you want to be when you were younger?

I wanted to be a pilot. I couldn’t think of anything worse now. I hate planes; the responsibility.

Rise: Describe your rise to fame in one word.

Extraordinary.

Supernova. We can't think of a question for this, tbh. Um, do you remember the song Supernova by Mr. Hudson?

Yeah. I actually wrote I See Love WITH Mr. Hudson. He’s brilliant.

We could Go Back: If you could erase one embarrassing moment from your life, what would it be and why?

Falling off stage in Paris. I fully fell off, flat. It was terrible.

Come Through we can't think of anything inspired for. Right, Fast Car: What's your dream car?

A Mercedes 300 SL Roadster, 1963.

Jonas Blue's album Blue is out now and it's really quite brilliant.
