There are a number of artists who use their music to transport listeners into new worlds, dimensions or times lines unlike any other. Sound design is crucial for this type of time travel, each note synth and melody changing the dynamic of the track leading listeners to new and exciting places. This is exactly what bass wizard Frequency has done with his latest track we have for you today, “UFO”. This track is a mind bending space journey that will capture listeners far and wide. Its wubby synths, deep booming basslines and infectious energy is not to be missed, transporting anyone who listens into the dark expanses of space. We will definitely have this one on repeat for the foreseeable future! Let’s take a deeper dive into why we are calling “UFO”, a certified bop. 

“One sentence about the release: The ‘Aftermath’ EP is a perfect fusion of different music genres and moods: from heavy hitting Jungle Breaks and in your face rave sounds on ‘UFO’s’ to the more soulful and lush synths and a Halftime beat on ‘Never Really Had’.”

DIVING DEEP W/ FRENQUENCY

1. How did you decide to get into making music? Was there a certain event in your childhood/life that made you stop and realize that you wanted to pursue a career in music?

As a young kid i got intrigued by many types of music that my older brother and sister but also my parents were listening in the early 90s. That went everywhere, from Hiphop, R&B, Reggae, House, Jungle and Early Hardcore/Rave till Pop, Rock and New Age. I remember i could just sit and listen to all these waves and loving all these type of moods and have an open mind for different genres. I guess that’s where it all started for me. At the same time i remember taking all the pots and pans that we had, turned them upside down and started drumming on them. As an adolescent around when i was 15 years old i got my hands on the first DAW (Rebirth firstly and then Reason by Propellerheads) and i never quit producing electronic music ever since. 
 

2. It can be very hard sometimes to separate music from day-to-day life when it’s a huge part of your life. How do you personally separate your artist life from your everyday life, and have you faced any challenges doing so?

Having a long walk in nature and also cooking delicious food at home really helps me to clear my mind. It’s really important for me to get off that screen and out of the studio in order to keep creating. 
 

3. As an artist, you can experience a number of roadblocks along the way to achieving your goals. What motivates you to continue to be creative and make music even when times get tough?

My marriage with producing music is so deep because it is like my medicine and my main outlet. It heals and is a way to deal with life and helps me express myself in both good and bad times. Music is so much stronger to me than words alot of times. What motivates me too is travelling the world and getting inspired by other cultures and connecting to these people. Luckily i toured many places already like Australia and Japan, that really energises me to keep on keeping on with my music

4. What’s next for your project? What plans do you have in the near future that you hope to accomplish as “Frenquency”?

Besides playing shows in London and Croatia in the near future I have some other exciting releases lined up for later this year. Also there is another international tour schedule in the pipeline which will be wicked!
