Lady Gaga Interview - Interview with Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga is the next rock/pop/electro superstar – or maybe she is the first. Mix one part Blondie with one part Madonna, swirl it in a bath of the Scissor Sisters and Junior Senior, throw in some glitch and sprinkle with glitter and you come close the recipe. Winter Music Conference was her launching pad and the industry took note of her. Working with Akon and Red One, the Lady Gaga has crafted a debut CD full of beats and melodies set for release later this summer.

Kleerup Interview

Andreas Kleerup is probably best known for his magical collaboration with Robyn "With Every Heartbeat." The international hit is a meloncholic masterpiece with warm, emotional synths and a driving groove that is both subtle and powerful at the same time. With that same feel, Kleerup recently released his album featuring collaborations with Lykke Li ("Until We Bleed") and Marit Bergman ("3 AM") as well as the powerful "Longing for Lullabies" with Titiyo.

Paul Oakenfold Interview

With a career spanning more than 20 years in electronic dance music, Paul Oakenfold is clearly an icon. Movie soundtracks, hit singles, massive tours, mixed compilations, remixes and productions by Oakenfold have expanded the way people view djs and electronic music. Ask any person on the street, dance music enthusiast or not, the will know Oakenfold.

Empire of the Sun Interview

The Australian duo contains members of indie/buzz-bands Pnau and Sleepy Jackson and could easily fit with other Australian bands signed to Modular (Presets/Cut Copy) yet they also have a sound similar to MGMT. In fewer words, dreamy and ethereal electronic pop rock. Cinematic videos for the three singles "Walking on a Dream," "We Are the People," and "Standing on the Shore," are all defintiely worth tracking down online.

Paul van Dyk 2009 Interview

With all the talk about the big DJ Mag poll, it seems fitting for me to post this interview that I recently did with Paul van Dyk. In June, Paul toured the US in a tourbus hitting seventeen cities in seventeen days. While the idea of a bus tour isn't unheard of for superstar international DJs (remember the infamous Sasha/Digweed bustour,) it is quite rare as most of the big guys choose to fly in, out and around the states for select dates.
