Pár dní před dalším dílem Bass Trap Live (4. 12. 2009 v Crossu) začal tenhle minirozhovor. Estonského mastera hluboký subbasy si k narozkám vybral Abu, takže si s ním na seznámení po mailu rozdal lehkou písmenkovou bitvu. Njoy.

I would like to know where do you originally come from and where do you live right now. Tell us something about your country… Do you prefer overcrowded cities, silent hamlet in the woods or…?

I was born and raised in Tallinn, the capital of Estonia. I still live here, quite in the centre of it, so I have been living the true city life since I was a kid. I do enjoy going in the nature though but not so much staying in a small village for over a week. I need constant movement.

I enjoy walking in the city streets when they are completely empty and you can almost feel you’re being in a dream. Once or twice a year I get to to that, on some holidays when most of the citizens drive off to the countryside.

Estonia has been a very interesting place to grow up because the country regained its independence in 1991, the time I was 6 years old, so basically I have witnessed the growth of it from the start so to say.

Nice one, so you are a typical „urban kid“? Sorry for the „kid“ but I’m little bit envious of you as you’re like 6 years younger than me… :-) I love the atmosphere of empty streets especially during winter nights when even most busy places like squares, bridges, riversides, etc. are abandoned. I hope we can manage it and you gonna like this in Prague during your December visit! Are these moments inspiring for your music or by contrast just like „brain-reseting“?

I believe them to be inspiring, yes, as I’m very much into haunting atmospheres etc. then I think it comes through my music aswell. I even remember it being somewhere in a review by boomkat or something.

And similar question concerning your dj / producer name. Does it give a sense, a word or…? If something is low it could also mean deep sometimes… :-)

Yeah you’re right about that, as my music is not so much filled with easy emotions, you sometimes need to get into a mood to actually understand the vibe, so basically I mean meditation. Though I try to keep it more rhythmic, more techno, otherwise I might be the only one listening. I make deeper dancefloor music.

„Only one listening“ sounds blankly. Have you experienced such a thing in near past? Do you have any side ideas or a project that won’t care about you’ve mentioned? I mean if you plan to make and possibly release deeper music simply without a tag „dancefloor“?

I think I confused you there hehe, when making tracks I don’t think of dancefloor, I only do what I feel at that moment. I have had many projects in the past, making techno, dub-techno and drum and bass. I think none of it was made for dancefloor from the start.

No, I don’t think so…I mean because of your love of soundscapes and atmospheres I’m curious if you wasn’t interested in making ambient or any kind of listening stuff not based on beats. :-)

Ahh, now I got it :-) well I have given it a thought but in the end I feel I will make this kind of stuff for an album if I should ever make one. But actually I have made non-beat soundscapes which I’ve used during my sets.
