Here in Solotrance
we keep trying to promote Trance
music in Spain,
and continue collaborating with the best dj's
and producers all over the world, and today
we bring you a interview to one of the best djs
and producers in the world, a man that is all
the same as a person as well as a dj or producer,
a big man and a big producer, he don´t need
presentations, his name means Trance,
he is Lange and
today we offer you the interview that Solotrance
made to him.
Interview that Solotrance made to Lange:
1º This is a question we make all djs and
producers, define for spanish people in a few words
who is lange:
A Trance producer
& DJ living in Oxford,
UK who's completely obsessed with Music,
and feels very lucky to have made a career from it!!!
2º The first song that we know you had released
was in 1998, when it was your first song made and
produced by yourself?
I started playing around with cheap 'home keyboards'
many years before that, in the early 90's!
But I think it was around 1994/5
that the music i was making started to sound OK!!
3º You produce under some alias (firewall,
lange, lng), Which is the difference (in a production)
between these alias?
Generally I would say that a Lange
single is usually vocal and uplifting. Firewall
releases are a bit darker and are instrumental
only tracks and LNG
is for more experimetal progressive trance.......
4º In the years you are producing you had
made a house or techno (or other style) song? What
do you think about other styles how house, techno
or progressive house?
I have experimented with other styles and sometimes
try to bring in a few elements from other genres into
my trance.
5º What hardware and software use you for
to produce?
My favourite Synth is still the Access
Virus! I still use my JD800
now & then for the odd sound, but I've
starting using some softsynths
too. I have a mackie d8b
digital mixer & use Cubase
VST on a PC for sequencing(I will
move to SX2 soon!)
.
6º How time you need for produce a theme
how kilimanjaro or intercity? What do you think (the
sun, the beach...) for to compose this great songs?
Sometimes a track will be finished in 2
days, sometimes it will take alot longer
- normally around 2 weeks.
Occasionally i will write a track over
a month or so - re-visiting it until it's
finally finished!
7º What is your trance theme favorite?
I never name just one favourite track, it's too difficult
to!! But I will say that Mike/Push
has produced alot of favourites of mine!
8º In which countries you will play this
summer (or in the next months), any date in Spain?
I hope to play in Spain soon. My agent is
working closely with a spanish promoter, so it shouldn't
be long before I can announce a date. Looking at my
diary I have dates in Russia,
Australia, New Zealand, Los Angeles,
italy, canada and of course the UK!
i should also be playing some dates in ibiza.
9º New projects or new releases in the future?
(can you tell us something about?)
I have a new 'Lange'
Single featuring Kirsty hawkshaw
coming up. It's called 'Sincere
For You' and will be released on my own
label, Lange Recordings,
in late July.
I have also remixed The Thrillseekers
- 'New Life' (Out
in June) and the new Empyreal
Sun single, 'From
Dark To light'.
At last something you want to say to all your
fans in Solotrance.com and in Spain?
Thank you for listening and for your support! I hope
to see you in Spain soon!
