Interview With Georges

1.) Can you tell us a little bit about this new release that you just dropped on AOC Records?

So, it is my first solo EP. I’m really glad to finally share a whole project on my own ! With this project I wanted to share some of my different inspirations and moods, so you can find some deep, soulful house influences but also hip hop or club friendly tracks !

 

2.)  Our premiere track ‘Sauce West Coast’ is a phenomenal tune to accompany the EP.  Can you talk a bit about this track, and how you molded together a few different styles into arrangement?

Thanks !! I really had fun doing this track ! At first it was just a hip hop song and wasn’t necessary composed for the EP but like I said before I wanted to share different vibes in the project and the idea of transforming this slow BPM hip hop track into a bass based house song came. I thought it was interesting to propose something a bit different, surely it will be hard to play it in clubs but you never know ! 😉

 

3.) Who would you say you’ve drawn inspiration from in finding your sound? 

Haha a lot of people ! At first I really was into progressive rock, I think i know all the Pink Floyd’s discography by heart ! St Germain also of course is a big inspiration as well as Dimitri From Paris or Daft Punk ! I am really into the modern jazz, soul, funk hip hop fusion that is going on lately with amazing artists like Thundercat, Badbadnotgood or Kamaal Williams to name a few !

 

4.) What have you been doing to keep busy during the quarantine time?

Music for sure ! But I read a lot too and I’m a also big movie fan so it was a good opportunity to discover or rediscover classic films and waste some time watching series etc. Call of Duty as been a good friend too ! 😉

 

5.) Any other cool releases dropping soon this year that we should know about?

I’m in the process of the second EP, don’t really know when it will be release yet ! And there is some surprises to come with Bellaire & Georges ! 😉
