Interview with Lov3Them

  1. Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

  2. A: I don't like to focus on what I have already done. I only ever look at what will happen tomorrow.

  3. Q: What are you working on at the moment?

  4. A: At the moment I am devoting myself to both my artistic activities: music and body art. It is tiring and not a little, but it makes me happy.

  5. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  6. A: Digital! We are in the third millennium and as much as analogue has its charms, it is a thing of the past.

  7. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  8. A: The promise not to be trivial.

  9. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  10. A: Being able to convey emotions.

  11. Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

  12. A: Question: "Will you do the first track for free? If I then like the way you work, I'll let you do other productions, but always at a discount eh'! Answer: "Definitely. But you have to call me on 30 February in the year of St. Never".

  13. Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

  14. A: Oh God, what kind of question is that? Everything can be right and wrong.

  15. Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

  16. A: Just one question: what are you looking for?

  17. Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

  18. A: He must be very patient and put up with me. I am a workaholic.

  19. Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

  20. A: First, my fretless bass and my beloved Ibanez Limited Edition guitar. Finally, my Mac, sound card and speakers. I make do with little.

  21. Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

  22. A: I started playing as a bass player and then switched to guitar. Over the years I have also learned to strum the piano out of necessity. Only in recent years have I become interested in music production, which I find very challenging.

  23. Q: How would you describe your style?

  24. A: A cauldron of various styles and influences. I like to mix seemingly irreconcilable musical genres and then see what comes out.

  25. Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

  26. A: Unfortunately, most of them have passed away. If I really have to choose between three who are still alive: Paul Simonon, Steve Hackett and Midge Ure, because of their great influence musically and otherwise.

  27. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  28. A: Too vague a question. Something more specific about instruments or music production?

  29. Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

  30. A: I love working on Post Punk, Darkwave, Goth Rock and Synthpop. I also like to work on other genres, including Funky, RnB, Progressive Rock and Reggae.

  31. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  32. A: Passion, passion and passion.

  33. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  34. A: It depends on my role in the song. If I work as a session player, I follow the requests of the person commissioning the work. As a composer I let myself go with what I like to do. For production, on the other hand, I try to make my own mark on the sound, trying to respect the requests.

  35. Q: What's your typical work process?

  36. A: My work process? Simple: I start at 6 7 a.m. and go on until 9 p.m., with a few short breaks, until the final goal is reached.

  37. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  38. A: I've got a small studio recording, but well organized, with everything at the right place. except for the drums, which I can't play and therefore don't own.

  39. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  40. A: On the bass, I was influenced by Mick Karn, Paul Simonon and Bruce Foxton. As a guitarist, my absolute idol is Steve Hackett.

  41. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  42. A: I have no problem working as a fretless bassist, guitarist and songwriter. I also do music production as long as the genre and style is compatible with my tastes and skills.
