Allo, Steve Lalla ( Hour ) a préparé quelques questions pour Alexi Delano. L'entrevue est vraiment très intéressante, je vous laisse vous faire un avis sur ça ! Au plaisir de vous voir ce samedi !

Entrevue Alexi Delano par Steve Lalla ( [ www.hour.ca ] 2 avril 2008 :

-as someone with experience as a performer, producer and label manager, what is your take on the analog vs digital debate? what is your personal preference when performing? are you tired of being asked about this?

I think this debate will end the day that vinyl and analogue equipment become obsolete.

I have to thoughts on this issue. First, I think that it has worked against the artist because now people don't need a turntable or a CD player to listen to the artists' music. Consequently, people are not forced to buy the physical vinyl or CD, which helps to keep track of royalty statements and such, thus allowing the artist and label to make a small living of this. Now you can just find some page, download it for free, play it on any mp3 player and share it with your friends with out leaving your home or spending a dime.

Second, it has worked for artists because they now have their music accessible to people all over the world. Also, yes, people do download the artists' music for free in many cases, but not everyone does. Music that has been purchased online is easy to track, so artists and labels alike can make a small living out of that.

It often saddens me to see this whole downloading track thing being done to my colleagues and me because people forget that there is still sweat and "blood" being poured out by artists and record labels to make this beautiful thing of ours happen. So to later see some Internet page or a forum give it away for free is upsetting and I find it to be disrespectful to both producer and consumer. When It comes to me performing I have slowly moved to just playing CD's. The reason for this is has mainly been because labels stopped sending vinyl promos to reduce cost and instead starting sending me wave files that I went on to burn on to CDs. After doing this for a year I gradually brought less and less vinyl records with me to play. If I had to choose between the two I would probably choose vinyl both for the sound and feel of the mixing process. I don't feel comfortable with bringing a laptop to a gig and use Traktor Scratch or any of these software's that allow you to play your digital files with vinyl records. But I guess that's my next step.

-i've been buying your records for ten years but i know little about you and can't find much in the way of interviews online and stuff like that. The thing most record buyers are curious about is your stockholm/new york relationship, why did you originally relocate to new york?

Thank you for the support! J

After spending some time traveling around Europe and being a bit tired of the same old in Stockholm I decided to pack my bags and transplant to New York. I was really curious to see what was going on musically on this side of the ocean. I was pleasantly surprised. I met people like Steve Stoll, Damon Wild, Todd Terry, Dj Pierre and all kinds of producers that I admired. As I am also into Jazz I made sure to scope out the best shows in town. My head got filled with new ideas.

-do you still live in NY? how do you find the North American scene has changed/evolved since the mid 90s when you arrived here? montrealers often have the experience of seeing our successful electronic music producers moving overseas (preach, misstress barbara, deadbeat, mike shannon...).. what are your plans for the future?

Yes, I still live in NY. When I first got here the electronic music scene was flourishing. There were huge event at clubs like The Limelight, The Tunnel, The Sound Factory and other big venues. At the moment there are several production groups in New York bringing great talent and keeping the scene alive and fresh. Unfortunately, not as many people come out to parties but with a great vibe nonetheless. I understand people moving to other cities or countries. Nevertheless, I think I'll be here for a while.

-have you heard from casey hogan lately? his productions were some of my favourites and he seems to have stopped putting out records

Unfortunately I have lost touch with Casey. I believe that he has gotten in to a different part of the music industry. I think that he now works at a major post production facility. I hope that he is still producing. If not, then I hope he will get back to it sometime in the future.

-how did you meet and begin producing with xpansul? obviously the tracks you guys have made together are excellent, what is it about the chemistry that allowed both of your sounds to excel?

Thank you again. In 2002 I relocated to Barcelona where I worked on some music for a Spanish label called Sindicato Recordings. They flew me out to Madrid for a one on one meeting and the head of their music studio was Santi (Xpansul). He has been around as a DJ and producer for a long time but I had never heard of him. We started chatting about gear at first and then after some beer and wine we moved on to music and realized that we pretty much had gone through the same musical history. We decided to get in to the studio the next day and two days later we had knocked out the Plus 8 EP for Riche Hawtin. With Santi I feel that I have not only found a production partner but also a friend for life.

-are you still producing with mostly hardware?

-how much would you say the change in your sound over the years, to a less-organic, more tekky feel (i would say) has been effected by -your change of habitat -and changing technologies in music production?

Over the years I have sold most of my gear and moved on to a semi-digital set up. However, the few pieces that I have are always on and ready to get abused if the tune demands it. The change in my sound has been affected quite a bit since all this new technology and change of environment has taken place. But I am still in my core a sucker for a good organic beat.

-you've done many remixes in addition to your original productions, how is your mindstate different when you approach remixes? what do you prefer?

Remixing to me is pretty much the same as working on my own productions. Most of the time I use such a small part of the original that it's not really a remix anymore, it becomes a full on original track with snippets from someone else's work. So it's almost in a way like a collaboration between you and the main artist. Other times there are more parts that inspire me and only then does it really becomes a true remix. But my mind state is always the same no matter what. I have no preference, I really enjoy both.

-what do you think of US politics compared to sweden's? does that effect your life?

I don't agree with the policies of the current government and I hope that the democrats win this November. If it were possible, I would want the independent candidate Ralph Nader to win but given the American political system that is virtually impossible. Consequently, I am for Barack Obama. I'm not a US citizen, however, so I'm not allowed to vote here. The politics of Sweden are more liberal. They have an excellent welfare system, great foreign policy, an effective multiparty system and proper respect for human rights at home and abroad. These are just some of the many reasons for why I prefer Swedish politics. Nevertheless, I have the hope that things in this country will change for the better at the end of the year.

-they may seem like stupid questions but i'm always curious where artists get their song & label names from, maybe you can explain the meaning behind some of these names : Test542? Cosmic Antipathy? Vegetotherapy? gentlemen of leisure? A.D.1010? and what's the story behind the "What's Your Number" track?

Test 542: 542 was the address where I used to live when I first moved to Brooklyn.

Cosmic Antipathy and Vegetotherapy: If I remember correctly, I got these names from a book called The Freudian Left that I was reading at the time.

Gentlemen of Leisure: This name was from a book about poker players in Las Vegas.

A.D. 1010: A.D. is Alexi Delano and 1010 is a name my New York friends gave me when I first moved here. There is a news radio station in New York City called 1010 Wins (not sure if it's anywhere else), I always used to get promos and New York City party invitations sent to me so my friends always used to call me to get the latest scoop about both of these so they started to call me 1010 and they still do.

What's your number?: The whole AD1010 album was my first concept album in which earth is visited by an alien race. In each track and the intermezzos I express something about "their" view of earth. This specific track is about its main character trying to pick up an earth woman at a club.

And the method is surprisingly human. J
