Or sometimes just even a pure radio track, within my own artistic style of course.įor you to get started, do there need to be concrete ideas – or what some have called a 'visualisation' of the finished work? What does the balance between planning and chance look like for you? Very much like the disco producers & artists I’m influenced by were able to do in the 1970’s & 80’s - and of course Daft Punk more recently. To craft the perfect Purple Disco Machine record that works as a club track AND as a radio record. Don’t get me wrong this impulse is still there hence the tracks on my new Album such as:īut as I’ve evolved as a producer, combined with having produced records that have been successful on the radio, I do now also have the impulse to push myself harder in that direction.
