Andras Caron vs UB40 – Where Did I Go Wrong by GirlsLoveDJs

INTERVIEW FOR DISCODROPPINGS.

1. How would you describe the electronic/club scene in Amsterdam?

Even though Amsterdam isn’t a big city compared to other capitals, the scene is very large and varied, with a 1001 parties going on everywhere in a lot of different styles. New clubs are popping up everywhere and new events come and go monthly. But things are pretty rough for most promoters, people don’t go out to clubs as much they used to and the Amsterdam club scene is spoiled rotten, name any big DJ and they play here on a regular basis. People expect more than just a DJ, they want an experience, and preferably be on the guest list and get in for free. We are one of the few constant factors in the city, doing the GirlsLoveDJs party for over 7 years now. Besides the GirlsLoveDJs party we do SEEN Visual Music, a concept party created around a DVDJ-crew. They mix the music and matching music videos simultaneously. Another party we do is The DirtydirtyDirty, Holland’s only HipHop party on Crack.

2. GirlsLoveDJ’s represents many different things-what are some of the ideas and goals you pursue with this organization?

Well it all started with a little party for friends, and hosting bad ass events is still our core business. We expanded from there and started up GirlsLoveDJs Clothing, originally the shirts we made with our logo on it where just a present for the DJs that played at our parties. Then people started asking us about the shirts where they could buy them, we jumped on it and started selling them. It grew into a well known brand here in Holland and is starting to spread worldwide. We also have the GirlsLoveDJs Record label which we started after DJs from our DJ agency, Thriller Agency, who needed a place to release their records. The goal behind all of the branches is world domination of course. The idea on everything we do, the most important thing is we really like the party/song/dj/design. If we don’t like it we won’t do it, if it would give us world domination though, we’d give another thought, haha.

(Remember these guys? Look back a few months in my blog archives for the full post on The Century, one of my favorites so far)

3. Currently, who are some of your favorite artists?

All the guys on our label off course, Quinten 909, Rubix, Andras Caron. Outside our label we really like Surkin, Laidback Luke, Boys Noize, Diplo, Tom Trago, B.R.U.C.E., Azari and III, Armand van Helden, Deadmau5. We’ve got a pretty wide taste, from Electro to French Filter House and Disco to Techno and Tech-House. It’s all good!

4. Any big releases or shows in your area coming up?

We just released the Quinten 909 – Closer to Me E.P. on Beatport, Traxsource and I-tunes. The Andras Caron – Classic Introduction E.P. preview can be checked on our Soundcloud page and should hit all the online record shops anytime now. For future releases we’ve got Estaw & Elroy Vanderley coming with a single, more Rubix and the Quinten 909 album is scheduled for this fall. As for the party’s we’re going abroad this summer, we just got back from Stockholm and we’ve got GirlsLoveDJs editions planned in Bali (Indonesia), France, Curacao, Miami and L.A. Besides that we’re touring all the Dutch clubs after the summer and we’re doing some festival stages over here. Oh and there will be a new clothing collection for this fall/winter.

I’ve got an exclusive free download from Andras Caron’s new EP. I’ve listened to the whole bunch, and this one got me real excited..

Interview for Disco Droppings.

1. How did you get introduced to the electronic music world?

I haven’t been introduced yet.

2. Your songs have a very blown-out, drone-y sound, has your music always sounded this way? Or have you gone through different stages with your style?

sometimes it has sounded like that and sometimes it hasnt.

3. You’re about to start a tour next week yah? How did you connect with with DJ Dog Dick and Narwhals Of Sound? How would you describe your live shows?

yea. ive never connected with either of those dudes. we all hate each other and are touring in 3 separate vehicles. hopefully there isn’t as much fighting with each other as there was last time we tried to tour together. our live shows range from sucking to totally sick depending on what day of the week it is.

4. What would you say to anyone interested going in the music direction?

i would say “dont do it music sucks!”

INTERVIEW.

1. How were you first introduced to electronic music?

It depends on how you define electronic music! I started playing electric guitar when I was 11 years old and that involves electronics. I was really into hip hop in high school and got an mpc and a 4 track and started sampling records and that was where I was introduced to the idea of making sounds that aren’t from conventional instruments. As I started to record on a computer in college then I got further into electronic and non traditional sounds that aren’t made by regular instruments. I really tried not to use my guitar much at all for a period of years but have since started using it much more.


2. What is the electronic scene like in your area?

In New York there is everything I suppose! What I tend to see is the sort of disco / electro type scene happening. That is just what I gravitate towards but I am sure every type of music is happening somewhere in this city! Do people still have raves anymore where they play jungle and drum and bass??

3. Currently, who are some of your favorite artists?

Some of my favorite people making electronic / dance kind of music right now are Aeroplane, Classixx and Holy Ghost! I think those three artists make the best remixes around right now.

The people at this Taco Bell are surprisingly nice! It’s sad that this is such an amazing thing…for people to be nice. Saw a girl again across from the Pizza Hut with a homeless sign, gave the extra taco I was given. Here fiance and her lost it all to some con artist.
