Hi FrazzleTruffle and thnk you for this interview!
Thanks Tommi, my friends call me “Frazz”
What music did you listen to when growing up?
My father was a radio dj when he was young in the late 70’s so I had thousands of vinyls at home of various genre
What would be your early inspirations? Aphex Twin clearly is one
You're right.
Certainly several thousand artists of the ‘80s and ‘90s influenced what I listen to and produce now.
What made you become a musician?
I have always loved music, when I was a child I loved recording music from vinyls or from the radio, with my amplifier, directly on cassette tapes and making a sort of playlist. Now it seems trivial, but at the time there were no music stream services like Spotify or Soundcloud, so when I wanted to repeat a song I had to rewind the tape, and it was essential that there was no advertising and spaces of silence, between one song and another so I recorded and I was careful which song to choose, that's probably why I decided to be a DJ.
Where do you get inspiration for your songs?
I take inspiration from what I live in the present and try to turn them into sounds. then I arrange them in order to create a melody and then the song comes by itself
Do you have musical education?
It depends what you mean by education. I study as a self-taught person every day in my free time and would like to improve my writing level
Of education, do you think it helps or limits artists? I mean you learn things certain way so how easy it is to break away from that way and start experimenting
The truth is simpler: When you write music and you want to improve and that's where you start studying. Otherwise you risk doing the same thing over and over!
Only thing in common with your tracks is they have beautiful melodies. There are lots of styles and that in my opinion is good thing. You like challenging yourself and testing new things?
Yes
Was it easy to work with vocalists? What were the biggest challenges?
The singers I have collaborated with on my latest projects are professionals, it was absolutely thrilling to work with them
As an artist what would be your ultimate goal in Milan?
What is your studio setup?
A laptop macbook pro connected to a couple of screens, Ableton live, many plugins, a digital Yamaha piano and a digital Roland drum and of course also real percussions and microphones
Do you have a website?
Not yet but you can listen all my music on internet https://soundcloud.com/frazzletruffle
