There are three main things that inspire me: samples, other artists and critical feedbacks. In the last 10 years, most of the time, the first was in duty, samples CDs, new instruments, new patches, and especially new drum sounds gave me strength to create. We went to see Berlin Calling in the movies with Paul Kalkbrenner, and it was great to see someone at work, who is doing something similar like me, pressing down keys, turning knobs up & down on the mixer, spends time with his hobby. He’s a respectable crazy mf, we are not producing the same kind of music, but the enthusiasm is similar. This is why I am still sniffing around house music, and I don’t give up on this genre.

The other positive feedback was from another electronic musician, TL who says I do better on Downtempo tunes, which I completely agree with, I think I need more help, and more input/feedback from outside to create quality four-to-the-floor music, than in the case of slower, head-nodding hip-hop like tunes. He wrote: “Recently uploaded “test83” is good. By the way – but of course I can’t be objective enough – I think that from quality and good ideas point of view, 90% of your triphop/downbeat themes rule, 10% are average, while in case of electro, it’s rather the opposite. Of course this is hobby, do what you like, but what you do with sample based downbeat things are much more interesting. These have solid, ready to play basic grooves. I think a little producer and song composer vein needs to be added,  to work these songs into something like Yonderboi songs. Supposing you consider comparison to Yonderboi a compliment… :)

Tune 83 (downtempo)

This is the very first night in the last two months when I do not have a deadline for the next day, havint a hundred to dos, and taking care of only 90 out of them, still leaving some bad feelings to bring to bed. So, enhanced by the “can’t wait” feeling I have because of our travel to VOLT festival tomorrow, I’ve suddenly found myself in a very good mood tonight, in the middle of a triangle set by Moby, Quimby and Love Alliance. This pretty much flew thru me and came out of the speakers as well. I hope not for the last time.

Breaking: good news is that after December, I’m also going to try in July to put together a band with live drums, live bass and myself, and see what happens. I have a band-dream, which I would really like to get close to but do something similar only that in the end, turns out to be even better :D
