Currently My London studio preparing my first live from The Get Lost party at Miami Music Week this weekend my to do list is set directly in order get the new midi controller that my current just died, record podcast .
WWD Your new EP Epoch is now it is a tale behind the rebellion tracks.
I started this course in Goa after the party of a pretty wild New Year on a back shelf in 2016 and finally completed in September 9th month is a time to tinker He went through a few steps to get to where it is now.
I took out a French girl called Berghain track with a good friend and producer Damian Lazarus Sandeman and I try to release an EP since I had been giving him music and then he sent me an email saying that EPOCH it to play in all games which was a surprise, I sent him XAILO and PE was complete.
WWD You also just a Amentia remix for Chapter 24 which influenced the decision to take the track.
I was immediately drawn into the sound design of the original and felt that it would merge well with my new direction most of your driving that I am taking my music.
WWD Production-wise, what can we expect from you in the coming months.
I have two track EP on Black Music mid April followed by a digital version and vinyl on Crosstown Rebels in June, I'm super excited about these two versions as they highlight the new sound that I worked in the last 6 months.
You WWD re constantly releasing large productions You must live in the studio.
Ha Almost Thanks, that means a lot of music production work with her is what I love and am grateful to have made a career of it.
WWD What are your favorite activities outside of music.
Cooking, spending time with my beautiful girlfriend, walking the dog and funnily enough recently increasingly in gardening.
WWD Is there a particular philosophy behind your approach to creating music.
It is finding the right balance, even if its dark way, I'll always try to find the light Sonically I want the listeners and myself to really feel the frequencies I always try and take the listener a journey hopefully make you forget everything, work out at the moment with the hope that elevate your mood is the goal at least it doesn t turn always that way, but when he does his magic and is what keeps me going.
WWD Do you find that your environment has an impact on your creativity.
I generally come to agree with ideas wherever I am, however, what the impact on the most determining my writing is the mindset of mind I'm in my studio Weirdly with all his gadgets can often be the most uninteresting place to hearing your music a great system and hearing how you've done in the studio reflects this scale is important and over the years have played my role in its production .
WWD In your mind or your body-it is a special moment for the creation of ideas and another for technical sound design or the two go hand in hand when you work.
To create inspiration, it seems to be the first thing in the morning or late at night and the other Mixing production was 24. 7
The MOU on Crosstown Rebels in June will be a landmark for me music is an instant where I came from and where I am the head of this will be a highlight anticipation is killing me.
WWD Finally, tell us about the combination that you recorded for us today.
It is a mixtape that you listen to on a long drive a mixed bag of casual and some grooves bit fuller on the slopes there are songs that I played in my games and hardware that's been my inspiration in the studio.
