A blog with an interview series profiling electronic music producers.

I’m an electronic music producer/DJ and I’ve started a blog where I interview up-and-coming electronic music producers. The idea behind this is that the electronic music scene is notorious for having artists who keep their identity hidden, or at the very least, don’t give any sort of media representation other than their music. In the interest of bringing some transparency to the electronic music scene, I’ve been conducting interviews with these musicians to get a feel for who they are both as people and as artists.

I’ve just posted my first two interviews – one with German producer Culprate, and another with Dutch producer 1788-L. You can find them here:
