(Grace/James)
Hey james
want to talk about your music?
Sure thing :)
this is going to be an ultra modern, slightly depressing virtual interview
mainly due to the fact that i know nothing about music, even though i am excellent at pretending.
Gota move with the times.
and also i have a huge boil on my face haven't been in public all week, lol
Fuck that shit. I havn't got out of bed for 2 days cause im ill. :(
No way. You making 'sick' tunes still?
Haha nice. I just put something fresh up today actually.
Frist dnb track i've finished off.
For the Kmag competition, remix of Seba - Painted Sky
Check it out.

OK, i'll turn of Aqua and listen to this
ok ok here we go, describe your sound do you have a signature sound?
I guess I do have a certain style. But it depends what genre you're speaking of, Cause I currently make and dj alot of genre's. Mainly Hip-hop, Dubstep and DNB.
However no matter what genre im making, its always melodic and usually ambient.
There's always a nice topline melody and movement to the track, im generally not a fan of filth.
Loads of random squeals to a generic beat just don't appeal to me.
Ok, i really like 'deep blue' what genre is that? should i be able to guess it's so chill
Well when starting a track, I don't usually aim for a genre. I just sit back and start creating and see where it goes.
Although I guess that track is closest to Ambient Dubstep.
Half time beat at 130 bpm, so yeah my best bet would be some kind of dubstep.
don't get all this jargon, but it is nice to sway too, what and who inspires you to make yo music?
Usually my main inspiration comes from real life, my friends and situations. But musically at the moment my main inspiration is ital tek, he's got some amazing and totally unique going on.

oh yeah yeah, my ears are being opened to a new world of sound.
alright, so, where do you see yourself in 12 years time?
You've been missing out, theres loads of great ambient stuff floating about.
in 12 years I should hopefully be making atleast a comfortable living of djing and producing.
Don't want to be rich or famous, just to be able to make ends meet.
what ..
no money or fame?
what about the playboy mansion and the gucci loafers?
Money would be lovely.
I don't know if i could deal with papparazzi
I'd probably end up smacking one and getting nicked.
do you like fighting?
Nah, im strongly against it.
Im something of a neo-hippy.
passive warrior?
I promote peace and love.
<3>alright, so we've asserted you want to make ambient dubstep, make money and make love not war.
what are you going to make for dinner?
Im not sure.
Tasha just arrived so it looks like she's cooking up something delicious soon.
Our outside fridge packed up just now aswell so theres a wide selection
blessed with a full fridge and a hearty lady OK so
word association, to round off, you ready?
