🎧 Ezio Aguiar presents "Intimacy" Afterhour Sounds Podcast Nr. 263 🎧
Heute laden wir euch zu einer sinnlichen, aber auch deepen und tanzbaren Episode voll des Charmes, der Gelassenheit und der epischen Momente ein.
Der https://soundcloud.com/mystic-tales-berlin Artist https://soundcloud.com/ezio-aguiar besticht seit Jahren mit einer hohen Qualität seiner Mixe, die sowohl zum Verweilen, als auch zum Tanzen einladen. Irgendwie Musik, die einen immer an eine sonnige Bühne auf dem Festival katapultiert. Hierbei zeigt er ein ausgsprochens Feingefühl im Trackpicking und dem Aufbau von Stimmungen. Schon alleine der Anfang des Mixes ist fein säuberlich gewählt und läutet sanft in die bevorstehenden 3 Stunden Musik ein. Im Verlauf serviert er dem Hörer tanzbare, teils deepe und bouncige Stücke, die kein Bein ruhig stehen lassen. Ab und zu versprüht er auch eine Art Afterhour Nostalgie, wie zum Beispiel bei Minute 59 und diesem epischen Track. Sagenhaft.
Wenn Afterhour, dann hier 🌈
Wie gewohnt haben wir Ezio ein paar Fragen zukommen lassen, in dem er über sich, seine Lieblingsafterhour und dem Mix erzählt. Seid gespannt.
+++ Interview +++
✔️ Was sind eure musikalischen Einflüsse?
I could name so many artists who have inspired me in different ways along my musical path. I can't help but to mention Mira, Janoma, Caleesi, Sarah Kreis, Niki Sadeki, Elias Doré and Unders, from whom I've drawn countless inspiration, yet the list is much longer than this. Also festivals like Fusion, Garbicz, Bucht der Träumer and Burning Man have had a huge impact on the music I play.
Unlike many artists out there, I didn't grow in a musical home. My blood family is big, but as far as I know, none of them is a musician. But somehow I found again and again amazing references from different music paths, from whom I could learn and integrate a lot. I for sure had a progressive rock and a jazz phase, which occasionally can be heard in some of my sets. Before I started to dive deep into electronic music, I was obsessed with a progressive metal band called Dream Theater. One wouldn't notice their influence on me, but listening to their conceptual albums has definitely taught me a lot about how to build a set and tell a story.
✔️ Was macht deiner Meinung nach eine gute Afterhour aus?
A strong desire to dance and an urge to connect, which keeps people from going home despite being physically exhausted. The tiredness invites people to be closer together and the music to be slower. It should still be driving enough to keep people dancing and soft enough to create intimacy, warmth and depth. In my opinion, the combination of all of these elements together is what makes a great afterhour (:
✔️ Welche Gedanken magst du uns zu deinem Mix mit auf den Weg geben?
This might sound daring, but if I'm honest, I created "Intimacy" with the imagination of a set I could listen to at a festival as well as while making love. I've built it in waves. Some parts are sexy, charming or even mystical, some are tender and romantic and others are simply deep and wild. It definitely is very warm throughout the whole journey, and the last 30 minutes feel like a long and melting musical hug. Overall, I believe "Intimacy" also captures well the beginning of the summer vibes and is a great festival warm up (;
