<span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">Hi Think In Electronic, being interviewed is
a real pleasure for me too. I am good thanks, I am very excited about my first
official release of the Klanga’s EP. Haha, I like original questions like that.
The thing I love the most is the Christmas atmosphere at the beginning of winter.
I love skiing, so that’s another reason. But it’s absolutely not for the cold.
I am more about chilling on the beach and surfing in the summer.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">I am a 23 years old French guy. I live in
Paris and I love this city so much. I am still studying, it’s actually my last
year at school, and I study civil engineering. If I was not making music, I
think I would have worked on creating a startup, because I love building
projects. I am really hoping to make my living through music, but if it doesn’t
work out then I will work as an engineer in a building construction company.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">I’ve not always wanted to be a DJ/Producer,
one year ago it was still just a hobby and now it’s getting more and more
professional. I am really happy about that. Before ‘Klanga’, I was thinking
about creating my startup. Becoming a real DJ/Producer was like an impossible
dream, and it’s now becoming true, so that’s absolutely incredible. I know I’m
very lucky!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

started playing violin, and I wanted to do the same! I really enjoyed it. The
thing I liked the most was playing in an orchestra. Unfortunately, the violin
is the only instrument I can play... but I plan on learning the piano in the
future because it’s very important for producing, as sometimes I spend hours
just to find a nice piano chord progression. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">In fact, I didn’t start electronic music
because I was listening to it. I started music thanks to my uncle who had
received music production software for Christmas. It seemed to be cool so I
tried it, and since that moment I never stopped producing music. Little by
little I turned to electronic music. If had to talk about one particular track,
I would say “Deadmau5 – Strobe”, which is a perfect track in my opinion.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">  </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">Before making chill-house I was only
listening to progressive house music, so I didn’t know all other genres. In
fact, I discovered Chill-house and Deep-house styles thanks to DIMMI who is in
my engineering school. I really liked it, and I started to listen artists like
Bakermat, Klingande and more. I decided to produce some tracks in this style,
and it worked! This genre allows you to develop melodies throughout the track.
I feel more free with Chill-house music. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">Yes sure, Chill-house is very powerful. What
I love the most in this style is the freedom it allows for the melody creation
process. You can focus on the melodies a lot more than in progressive house, in
my opinion. You don’t have to create an incredible build-up or a powerful drop
to make people love the track. You just need to make music you like, record the
melodies you like and share it with people. It sounds more natural as well and
it’s easier to add real instruments. I think Chill-house fits better with my
personality, but I still like progressive-house!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

to school (and I hate getting up in the mornings haha!) Then after school, I
come back home and sometimes produce for several hours (sometimes all night
long.) Before starting making music I don’t have specific ideas in my mind, it just
comes naturally when I play on my MIDI Keyboard. I start by making the drums,
then I play some chords progression, and then I look for a catchy lead loop.
Sometimes it’s great and sometimes absolutely not. I don’t exactly know where
my inspiration comes from. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">‘Klanga’ is the first or second chill-house
track I produced. I was in Germany when I produced this track so I got an
inspiration from there, with typical saxophone tracks really famous in Germany
like ‘Vaandag’ of Bakermat or ‘Sonnentanz’ of Klangkarussel. About the title of
the track, I just gave this title to the project because it reminded Klingande
and Klangkarussel and I kept this name, because I think it had a nice sound to
it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

we have very very nice remixes in it. I don’t have a favorite one because all
are very different from others. The Pep & Rash one is very clubby, it’s
future house. The one by Henri is more tropical-house or chill-house. Every
remix has its own sound. It was a choice to get a large panel of styles when I
asked for the remixers, so I contacted producers from different genres. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">The historical speech “Ich Bin Ein Berliner” of
JFK used in ‘Klanga’ spreads a timeless and universal message of peace and
freedom. We wanted to keep this atmosphere in the video clip shot in Berlin. We
can see people riding their bikes throughout the city and without any barriers,
that symbolizes freedom, and the Berlin wall that appears in the video clip reminds
people of the past, meaning that times have changed for a better world. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">Playing the violin for 7 years developed my
musical sense. I love music and especially producing music that is the most important
in my opinion. When you love something you want to learn everything, and keep
practicing and try to get better and better. I remember the first time I
produced; it was during Christmas when I used music production software for the
first time. I just superimposed several prefabricated loops of the software and
I really enjoyed that, even if I’m sure the track was absolutely horrible! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
