WORLDWIDE SOUND INTERVIEWS
Interview featuring Clavette
What is your sound? I call my sound French House Revival. Im heavily influenced by Daft Punk and the sound of French House music coming out in the late 90's and early 2000's. French Houser Revival is taking elements from that era and combining my flare to create something unique to me. Is music your passion? What about music makes you feel passionate? Absolutely. I think for me, I have been trying to create that feeling I felt when listening to Daft Punk for the first time. Always chasing that nostalgia and emotion. Who were your earliest inspirations? Obviously Daft Punk, but additionally I'm wildly influenced by Alan Braxe, Fred Falke, DJ Falcon, but also a lot of the old school house heads like Frankie Knuckles, DJ Spen, Karizma, Marshall Jefferson. Lots of Disco and R&B artists like Luther Vandross, Dianna Ross, Donna Summer, Sister Sledge, Prince, etc. Which qualities make a great musician/dj? Courage to try something new, wide understanding of genres and influences, authenticity and originality, dedication to the craft. What's your favorite drink when performing/creating? In the studio, typically just coffee or water. When performing, a cocktail or beer. What's your dream b2b? I would love to play b2b with Pete Tong or Felix Da Housecat. Having seen them both live, our musical tastes are so wide and what they play is so unique. What's your dream venue to play at? In Los Angeles, definitely Sound Nightclub. My dream is play at Space in Ibiza on the Terrace. What single night out has been the most memorable for you, as a DJ or as an attendee? Probably playing on a boat last summer opening for Goldroom What is one track that never gets old for you no matter how many times you hear it? Lost in Music by Sister Sledge. TIMELESS
