MetroGnome: I don’t want to say that my sound is unique or that I have my own “signature” sound because I get inspired from a lot of different artists. And yes, I actually play them instead of using the sequencer with the exception of snare rolls and fills. People always ask me if I use the Maschine to make all my beats. As far as hardware is concerned, I use the NI Maschine and a Yamaha MOX8 Synthesizer to produce the majority of my songs. MetroGnome: I use Ableton Live to compose, edit, and mix. Although, I wouldn’t want to go out partying with friends, and dance to Bollywood music.ĮO:What equipment do you use to make music? You’ll mostly hear Electro or House music playing everywhere,or Bollywood, which is a lot of fun to dance to, especially at Indian weddings. In New Delhi, good bars close around 3:30am or 4am. Is it just me, or is that the time when parties actually start? Except everything closes at 1:30am, which still confuses me. You can actually go and start a conversation with anyone at a bar or a night club. MetroGnome: To start with, California girls are HOT. With music festivals like NH7, Fireflies, Submerge, SunBurn, Goa Trance etc., there’s a huge demand for underground electronic music in India as well.ĮO: What is the club life there and how is it different than where you currently live (California)? The only difference is that there are a lot of live bands (rock, alternative/progressive, fusion, metal, death metal), rather than electronic artists and DJs. MetroGnome: The music scene is as busy as you may think it is over here. Soon enough, I realized that it had already been too late for me to back out.ĮO: You were born and raised in India, Can you tell us what the music scene is like there and how that influenced your music today? So, I forced him to teach me the basics of it. Which got me thinking, if HE can do it, so can I. When I first heard it, I couldn’t believe that I personally knew someone who makes music.
My old friend, Mukul, who is also a music producer, showed me one of his beats back in 2006 (I barely knew him back then). Since the day I realized I had a sense of rhythm, I knew what I wanted to do in life. MetroGnome: Music has always been my passion. Check out our exclusive interview, his track and more below.ĮO: How did you get into producing music? Our last winner was MetroGnome for his track ‘Screwed’ Each month we colloborate with Indaba Music to give one artist to be featured right here on Electronica Oasis.
