Hey! How are you, how are things with you right now, both personally and professionally?
Hello ☺ Yo! right now, we can say that things are doing well for us. Our label is working on one monthly release from our music. Every day we’re growing up on Spotify and we have only good reviews from lots of Producers and DJs that we love so we’re happy.
How did you first get into dance music? Radio? Live DJs? The internet?
We started as DJs in some of the best Illegal Rave parties all over Europe and then we quickly decided to produce our first track. We started producing mostly some heavy Techno and Acid Techno tracks at the time then around 2017 we started to explore deeper styles.
What are your own sounds and style, what’s the signature in your music?
What we try is to sound as positive and happy as possible. Also, we can be more melancholic but with always a touch of hope! Right now, we’re exploring sounds influenced from Afrohouse, Deephouse and Techhouse styles.
Do you limit the tools you use, the software and hardware, to make your music?
Yes, we try to limit the tools that we use but as we travel a lot, we’re also trying to use gear that we find on our way, but today we’re happy of our musical production set up as we’re lucky to have many software and hardware that we love to use. Such as our Moog Voyager, Pro2, Komplete Maschine and co…
What inspired your new one on your label Ondawey Music?
Our last release called “L’oiseau Bleu” was created during 3 different sessions in 3 different places. We first wrote the melodic parts in our shared studio in Marseille, then we add the “Scarface synth melody” during a second session in one of our family houses in south of France during the summer 21. Then we finished it in Ibiza at the Axis Mundi Studios.
The pr says ‘The production style and the atmospheric integration makes you feel like you took a big hit of a very potent psychotropic substance.’ Do drugs help you in the creative process?
Not really… Maybe…
Where and when was it written and does that matter, does that change what sounds you make?
We truly believe that our sound can totally change regarding the place where we are.
How does production and DJing relate to one another – are they both synonymous, does one inspire the other?
As we started producing music after being a DJ, we understand perfectly how to structure our music to have a good track to mix but sometime we also let it go and just let our feelings finish the work. If you’re a real good DJ, you should be able to play anything with anything you know!?
What is the best advice anyone ever gave you?
To keep our mouths shuts and just let our music speaks for us!
What next for you for the rest of the year?
We’re going to spend the full summer time and closing season in Ibiza as we need to finish to work on lot of tracks that we have in progress. We also planned to record two great female singers too and we are going to try to build a strong community around us.
Also, our next single called “Nuage” will be released on June, 23rd!
Thank U so much!
It’s time 2 smile ☺☺
2smile’s “Nuage” is out on June 23rd on Ondawey Music
