What first got you into making Music? How did you start?
We are four guys who know eachother a long time. We making music as dj’s and partys and also starting produce some music !
First we had a demo that I was giving to Richard wittingham from the rockers hifi in 2000. sadly the label was after a lot of good releases closing and nothing came out. So we had also a break
And two of us have worked on a own studio that we use now. In the meantime a lot changed and we came together with some instrumentals and also had the chance to meet a lot of favourite dancehall mc’s.
And we meet the guys from filewile who running the mouthwatering label..rest is history…!
Your music is very ground breaking - what made you try something new?
Like I said..four people ,four meanings, four ideas…and a lot of influences..
Where are you located?
Zürich / switzerland
Your EP, Comic Book is coming out on the 13th December - do you have any special events planned?
No!
How did you decide on the name Comic Book?
We want to gave our club music a funny face…we don’t take it to serious at all! And of course we are some big comic fans! But most of all, the idea was to finish the trilogy of our 12inches..so we have to search a title who has something to do with books..but without a name of a town like the other two’s before..so it became a comic book at the end!
Do you have any plans to tour the UK?
No, but book us as soundsystem right now. We planning to create some more new music and looking for a concept to bring all this sounds live!
Your release features many remixes, why is this?
Because we are also dj’s since a long time..so I love to choose the right version for the right time of a song! And to keep it simple I love remixes!!!!!!!!!
You have already been played on BBC radio with your last release, will we be hearing Comic Book on our radios soon? I hope so!
How are you guys planning on relaxing after producing this EP?
We have some new tunes in the pipe and I think you can expect some new material next year…maybe a full album? So be prepared for some new kick (b)ass talen music!
Any special dates we should look forward to?
We are working right now on a new remix for our labelmates filewile …and two of us running also a soundsystem so book us here : http://platebooking.wordpress.com/artists-2/talen/
