Was it done live in one take? What gear did you use? Are you happy with it?
As a comment, I did 3 different mixes with CDJ2000 nexus and traktor (passed through ableton afterwards to fix the sound and some EQs) and I stuck with the one that most motivated me 🙂 And really, I’m happy. I can tell you I never make anything public that I’m not totally convinced of and that I don’t enjoy myself. Many times I put it on in the background in the office when I’m fixing paperwork 😀
Tell us about your label SOLAR – what has it got coming up?
Solar Distance is my most personal challenge. It’s my little boy 😀 A label in which the most important thing is the music and not sales. Artists and their promotion are important, and not only the charts, and so we are very happy because the result is still magnificent and the impact, much higher than expected, so we’re happy and raring to carry on… And we continue with big releases with artists like Natural Flow and Lee van Dowski, Scoom Legacy, my new ep on the label with an amazing remix, and much more coming your way and we’ll be announcing it in due time 🙂
Will the label work on albums and develop artists, too, or will it just be about tracks and singles for the club?
Totally focused on artists. This year, we’ll edit the first album, of an “unknown” artist and my initial idea, as you can see, is to edit at least one album a year and of course give the artists total freedom when making music. Most artists have wanted to make more “club” music, but we started getting more special music, even from artists who have already been released on the label, so, naturally, the label goes the way I expected and wanted it to. I am among those who think that everything has to come naturally, so I’m happy for it to be so.
Personally what else have you got coming up/are you looking forward to?
Various projects and several EPs are on the way (we still can’t give information on some of them but we can anticipate that during the summer a work in Culprit will see the light, accompanied by a Steve Bug remix and as I said, my new Solar Distance before the end of the year, even though 2 more EPs will appear in the middle of this time) and several more special stuff: one linked to classical music and the album we’ve been working on for a year and a half, an album with a band and with a different name (I don’t know when it will be finished but I know the process is being very enriching) and I hope to present UNER’s new solo album for next year.
