I started producing music in 1994, with the first single I travelled around Canada for a tour and this was so fascinating.<br \/>\nAfter 30 years, I still love this world as much as the first day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And when did you start making it, what sounds and DJs and labels and parties inspired you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I like 70s music, it inspired me a lot, with funk, soul and dance.<br \/>\nErik Morillo, Roger Sanchez and David Morales are milestones and examples for me and for the whole world.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/1204009639&amp;color=%23ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false&amp;show_teaser=true&amp;visual=true\" width=\"100%\" height=\"300\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div style=\"font-size: 10px; color: #cccccc; line-break: anywhere; word-break: normal; overflow: hidden; white-space: nowrap; text-overflow: ellipsis; font-family: Interstate,Lucida Grande,Lucida Sans Unicode,Lucida Sans,Garuda,Verdana,Tahoma,sans-serif; font-weight: 100;\"><a style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" title=\"AREA 94 Records\" href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/area94records\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AREA 94 Records<\/a> \u00b7 <a style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" title=\"Federico Scavo - Attraction\" href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/area94records\/federico-scavo-attraction\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Federico Scavo &#8211; Attraction<\/a><\/div>\n<p><strong>What is your own sound, what makes your music unique?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My sound is house, full of funky, soul, tribal and electronic influences.<br \/>\nThe union of the grooves and the effects I use, gives as result my style, that can be recognized track after track.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you jam live to see what comes out, or do you construct your songs with a brief and an aim?<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nI enter the studio with an idea, always. Then, it depends on who is there, for example when I have some musicians, we try to build something out of any plans, living the moment and the mood. So, I do both things, but at the beginning there is always the same aim: do something that can bring emotion to people.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you make the tunes you want to play in your own sets, is there a direct link like that?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, clearly. During gigs, my dj sets are made up of 70% from my own tracks. I think this is fundamental to give you an identity and to transform a set into something special. If all djs play the main charts&#8217; tracks only, one or another dj is the same. I like to be special for my audience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are you concerned with your environmental impact as a dj, and what can you do about it if so?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Everybody must be concerned on it, not only as a dj but as a human being. I do small things everyday but as a dj I can tell you I&#8217;m making a project about an impact zero recording studio, powered by renewable energies only, on the Tuscanian hills, where I live.<br \/>\nI hope to announce it during 2022. Fingers crossed!<\/p>\n<p><strong>What else have you got coming up\/are you working on?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I feel like a volcano, always thinking about the next step to do.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m working on my summer track, the most important project I release every year; rebranding my label graphic line, doing some remixes, selecting brands that support the summer tour and so on. Never stop working and especially never stop dreaming!<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for having me, listen to Attraction and be positive!
