Interview toLange

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!
