Like everybody I had a many transitions. Back in the days machines and clock problems then computer only then computer and machines but I was keeping me far form modules for many reasons like the price and all that people that keep you scared telling you will never finish a track with them.
And what was it that started to interest you about Eurorack modules?
I was at a Ricardo Villalobos concert and after listen what he was doing and producing in real time I decided to try it. Then you know, you give me a lesson one day ahaha. The use of modules and their simply but really effective workflow was perfect for my way of work.
Did you have any frustrations or issues working with Eurorack or did it slot into your workflow pretty easily?
Euro slipped in my workflow with absolutely no issues, I can do in same project everything form Euro to sampling to computer and not a single clock issue or problems. I’m pretty happy with that! Plus the real frustration comes from looking into my 300000 samples and find something…. you know that kill me for real!
How are you using your Eurorack system? For drums, custom synths, FX etc?
I use them for everything from synth to drones to percussion. About FX I prefer pedals or VST I still think that there is a lot of work on eurorack to achieve their usability. But you know this is my point of view.
Now Eurorack has firmly taken place as a key part of your studio do you wish your system could do anything else?
My studio will do what I do, instruments are something that are there to help your expressions but you cannot be a slave to that hardware. I will keep getting more modules I have some in mind but to be really honest, talking about my own style I already have enough to make records till 2050 :)
To finish on tell people where they can find your music and more about you.
Well if you play records so you can find me as deStrict at this link https://goo.gl/wIa88K on Decks and all major and minor record stores.
But if you are my friend you can also play my unreleased music in you next set :)
I’m thinking I will avoid releasing my stuff and keep giving it to the right people to test out, it will be even more underground that way!
