The Thrillseekers Interview
I did this interview with Steve Helstrip for my site recently, thought I might post it here as well.
| quote: | Hello Steve! Thanks for taking the time to do this interview for TrancePodium!
How are things right now, and what have you been up to recently?
Things are just brilliant right now, thanks. The past 6 months or so have been spent preparing for Night Music Volume 2, the new single 'Waiting Here For You' and everything that accompanies these projects, from the tour, artwork, website and promotion. I'm very much 'hands on' in all aspects of the production, so things have been pretty hectic round here.
The follow up to your debut compilation "Night Music" will see its release on June 25th. Could you tell us what can we expect from it?
Sure. The concept of Night Music is to showcase the music I play out as a DJ. Disc 1 is really the very latest, upfront music that I've been able to get my hands on. It starts off with the new single, which is quite laid back by my usual standards, and progresses through pretty much every sub genre of trance imaginable before reaching the killer peaktime anthems that have had such devastating effect in my sets of late.
Disc 2 looks back over the past 12 months and contains some of the biggest tracks that have dominated my sets. I started out with a list of 30 records that I wanted to include here, but half had to be dropped in order to create a cohesive mix that evolves and demonstrates the different styles I play. If you're looking for 1 sound-alike track after another, then Night Music isn't for you. Instead, I approached the track selection in such a way that the flow of the album is more akin to an artist album. There are twists and turns on the way, and each track will put you in a different place mentally and emotionally. |
