3 QUESTIONS to WALLY LOPEZ:

Q: Let´s talk about your mix, about your roots. How did you find the way into electronic music once and what did these tracks mean to you?

A: I found my way to the Electronic Music through the radio, looking in the records shops of my area and later going to the radio station to play hours and hours all the music that I felt. Later comes the DJ experience in to the Clubs. The tunes of the set represent different times of my music life, from the influences of Chicago or Detroit to one of my favorites bands Depeche Mode, going by classic Trance, Acid, Techno anthems.

Q: By selecting the music for this podcast you probably found a lot of pearls. Would you still play some of them?

A: For sure, most of these tunes are timeless, and for me they are part of the soundtrack of my life.

Q: What´s coming up next? Which future Wally Lopez projects can we expect?

A: Several projects for the future, in the music way, finishing a new album with a lot of musical influences of the past and now, new singles on labels such as Toolroom, King Street, Zero Three, Timeless Moment, Nervous, etc. As DJ life is hard life, still doing around the world with the measure of being able to also spend time with the family, that is the key!

3 QUESTIONS to RAUSCHHAUS:

Q: From DnB to Trash to House and Electro. How would you describe your roots in a few words?

A: To me Electronic Music was only connected to parties and dancing way before I started to make it by myself. From 1998 - 2010 I only focused on Hiphop, produced beats and wrote the lyrics. But beside that I always loved to dance to Jungle Music and Drum And Bass, had some Happy Hardcore tapes and loved to listen to The Prodigy, Pendulum, Noisia and acts like that. It was a slow process as I lost the connection to rap and started to plunge into the universe of Electronic Music. I soaked it all in and got to know all the different genres and their characteristics. While listening and comparing I started my own projects and was immediately hooked by all the possibilities and new influences. I started to visit a lot of clubs and spent many nights studying tracks, how they affect people and what atmospheres they can generate. When you look at my first Rauschhaus releases you can clearly hear my musical development and where my inspiration came from.

Q: What do these tracks still mean to you? And would you still play some of them?

A: Each of the tracks that I've chosen has a special meaning to me and reminds me of certain places or people. I still love to hear them and it took me quite a while to find the right tracks for this podcast. Most of them won’t fit into my playlist now but while compiling I thought that it would be a good idea to put the folder on my USB Stick to be prepared for the right moment

Q: Which future Rauschhaus projects are on the way?

A: There are a lot of upcoming projects and I was really busy during the last months. I will release an EP on ICONYC, collaborate with Mango Alley again and will put out two tracks on Parquet. Beside that I continued to collaborate with my buddies Peter Groskreutz and Peer Kusiv and we finished a few amazing tracks together. You can expect a lot of new music soon and I am already planning new projects for the second half of the year.

3 QUESTIONS to LUIS ROSENBERG:

Q: Talking about your mix, your roots: how did these tracks have an impact on your later doings?

A: My father grew up in the 1960s and collected a lot of vinyls from this time. When I was young, he was often playing albums from Bob Dylan, Petty Smith, Frank Zappa, J.J. Cale etc. and translated the lyrics for me. I had to include at least one track of those artists because thats really where it all began. Following the tradition of my father I started to collect vinyls myself. In the beginning random things that had a nice cover and were pressed on vinyl and later on more hip hop and electronic stuff. I'm still listening to music from the 60s and 70s though and I guess this has some sort of an impact on my style.

Q: Compared to the music you're now playing: would you still include one of these tracks in your current sets?

A: The majority not, but some of them. When I prepared the set I found loads of cool tracks I have not listend to in ages. I'll definitely try to include them more often in future sets.

Q: Which exciting Luis Rosenberg projects are coming this year?

A: I'm taking it a bit slower at the moment because I'm focusing on non-music related projects. However I am going to play at a couple of festivals and I'm especially looking forward to playing in Thailand for the first time later this year.

3 QUESTIONS to PAJI:

Q: Talking about your mix: From “Barbers Adagio For Strings” to electronic beats from the past 15 years. How did you meet the bass?

A: My musical roots lie in classical music because i got classically trained and was also always interested in oriental instruments and folklore due to my upbringing. I later discovered my love for electronic music / deep beats and quickly realised that there are actually similarities between classical music and electronic music. Both genres really take their time and put their listeners on a journey. I just put 2 and 2 together and started combining the elements things that i loved.

Q: Playing the violin is an outstanding feature in your live-performances. How did you got in touch with the instrument once and what does it still mean to you?

A: I got introduced to the instrument as a young kid. A close family friend would always play the violin on family get togethers. I was amazed by the sounds and would always ask him tons of questions about it. My father caught on to the interest and soon I had my own Violin along with lessons. And to this day I just never got tired of it, I honestly get restless if I don’t get to play for more than a few days.

Q: We heard there is a new album coming soon? Tell us more

A: I’m putting all my focus on finishing my very first LP, to be released early this year. I got to collaborate with amazing talent and am just filled with excitement in anticipation of sharing new music. It’s gonna have a lot of new elements that people might not expect from me but for sure It has that typical Paji imprint that has been with me over the past 5 years.
