We are inspired and happy to have Lars Brodherr aka Larse with us for an interview session. This talented German got our attention this summer with his strong sexy grooving nothing less than flawless production “The More I Want”. He recently followed up with “ So Long” out Noir Music, again an instant hit with us. The deepness and the sexy vocals of this track got us yet again dancing with big smiles and closed eyes, just as we like it! We’re happy to have Larse with us and looking forward to what he’ll serve us up next.

MINI INTERVIEW
How did you start getting into producing your own music?
I just always wanted to. I would hear music that made me feel weird and I always wanted to be doing that too. When I was maybe 6, I loved The Good The Bad and The Ugly soundtrack, and my mother told me I would make music like that one day.
How would you describe your sound?
It’s love music from the recent future. From the skies over the desert. On the other hand I heard somebody call it “seedy pan-continental disco”, how can I argue with that?
What are your earliest musical memories?
I’m not sure. But I remember the first time I heard Good Life by Inner City, in the car with my brother. I was 12 or so. So impossibly good, a knock-out moment. That intro still gives me the chills every time.
Any musical family links?
Yes most of them would play music somehow. Some of them did it for a living. Lot of music. I was lucky because my dad and a couple of my friends knew everything about music that I loved. So even if I didn’t have a clue myself they would say, you’re singing this, because of this. Because they would have played it to me earlier. Does this even make sense? They would hear the Blackbyrds or the B.B.&Q Band, and yeah it turned out you could really trace stuff in the music I make.
What are you currently working on?
I’m fiddling around on a bunch of things, as always. I’m currently behind after not finishing traxx for two years… I’m catching up though! Sorry Your Highness, sorry Vladi, sorry David and sorry Leon… :)
What’s on your radar right now?
I’m listening to “Never Not Working” on the East Village Radio right now… pure gold, honestly
Name three of your favorite records old or new?
Three songs, so very unfair to million other songs… But here’s three that have always given me intense mix of happy and sad:
Electric Light Orchestra – Secret Messages
Madonna – Who’s That Girl
Jamie Principle – Your Love
What sound or noise do you love?
I love to hear someone sing when they don’t know that you hear. I love to see oldtimers play in a band. The sound in a restaurant when there’s no music. Trees. When the taxi driver plays Prince. Synthesizer.
What turns you on?
The waist.
What’s at the top of your shit list?
Ugly trancey “house music” on the radio. Fucking clowns… Also the taxman – I wish he would leave me alone so I can just hang around and listen to Who’s That Girl.
What is your favorite destination?
It used to be New York but now I live here! Otherwise Munich and Istanbul.
What are you most excited about right now?
New release on Djurriket any day now! Also, the waist.

Oxford aka Antoine Rigail was up early this morning dropping off some French House. Bonthefuckjour! Shari and Vari have been following this clever young man from Toulouse for quite awhile now and it’s no secret… WE’RE BIG FANS! ;-) So much so that we’ve even invited him to be our guest at HEAT (Part 2) @ Chez Moune in Paris on December 2.
Oxford will be playing alongside two other extremely funky Frenchies (HEKO & Patrick 3000) that we looove, and between the three of them this night is going to be unforgettable! We strongly suggest you all get your party pants ready cos if HEAT (Part 1) was anything to go by, HEAT (Part 2) is gonna be off the hook! Merci for making us this punchy, super fun mix tape Antoine… Good vibes to the max! WE LOVE FRENCH HOUSE!!!!

Patrick 3000 (identity unknown to the masses) can be found being funky, a wee bit sleazy, pretty fucking secretive and generally super groovy in and around Paris. ;-) We adore this about him, because it means when we ask him for another mix tape he’s always ready to go and we 100% know it’s gonna be good! So, once again he’s nailed it, and we seriously can’t think of a better way to spend Monday morning. Oh and by the way… On Friday December 02 Patrick 3000 will be our guest at HEAT (Part 2) @ Chez Moune here in Paris. So if you’re around and you wanna get a sneak peak plus hear some killer tunes – this is the time to do it!
Oxford (Toulouse) and HEKO (Paris) will also be there, and very responsible in making you dance your ass off!
