could, check out our interview with them below:
Q: Before we dig in, what's next for you? (current or future projects)
Rompasso is my only project and I don’t think of having any sides. However, I work on lots of collabs, remixes and EPs. Work in progress, guaranteed.
Q: What advice do you have for someone looking into getting into electronic music?
To be honest, I don’t know what to advise, everyone’s got a unique story and attitude to music. There is one thing though I’m sure about – you have to be special, you have to stand out from the crowd.
Q: What is the last song you listened to?
Rufus – Another Life
Q: What/when has your favorite performance been?
It happened in July 2019 in Moscow when I came back from Tomorrowland and had a performance at EuropaPlus live in front of 60 thousand people. It was amazing.
Q: What type of musician would you prefer to collaborate with?
I kinda don’t tend to make preferences, always very open towards collaborating with new people. If I like someone’s music I just get in touch with him and that’s it I guess.
Q: If you could bring one artist back to life, who would it be
Freddie Mercury or Michael Jackson, are the greatest and the most special artists I’ve ever heard about. I really wonder what kind of music they would have made now.
Q: What will finally break the internet?
I think a global power outage is the only thing that can break it =)
Q: Which fictional character is the most interesting to you?
Harry Potter? A brave guy who’s very lucky across the entire plot, he has always someone in support. That’s cool.
Q: What's the most interesting thing you've read or seen this week?
I bumped into some documentary on Stromae all of a sudden. A very talented musician and a fascinating artist. I’m deeply impressed.
Q: What's the first trip you’re going to take once the world reopens?
I’ve been dreaming of traveling to Croatia, to the seaside. Have never been there.
