INTERVIEW WITH SIENIS
[Question] Tell us about your studio. What synths do you have in there and which do you use the most?
[Answer] I like to keep my studio minimal so i´m rocking the Access Virus TI Snow, been using Virus synths since i started cause i love the sound.
[Question] What about other external hardware? Do you have any favorites?
[Answer] That would be my Eventide H7600, it has everything i could ever need in hardware FX in the best possible quality.
[Question] Sweden is well known for it’s legendary producers of Pop music and bands like ABBA, which made big waves around the globe. Tell us about the Psytrance scene over there and how it has been affected by the pandemic and perhaps yourself as well.
[Answer] Psytrance in Sweden is going strong, more and more parties coming up again but the pandemic doesn´t really affect the life of an introvert much, “I gotta stay home in my studio and away from crowds? ok then!” On the other hand people in Sweden barely care about masks and distance or anything like that, overall life is pretty normal here.
[Question] What made you want to produce this music?
[Answer] I´ve always been fascinated by melodies and beats since a kid but i think it started after thinking that I can do it better after hearing some tracks.
[Question] You are also known for producing other genres and working on post production for movies. Do you want to tell us a little something about that?
[Answer] Yea, i like to play around with all kinds of genres, pretty much done most of the electronic genres just to expand on my knowledge and to see if i could do it. The movie audio work is what pays bills tho and i really love working with foley, sfx and mixing.
[Question] Now let’s talk about your upcoming EP, Kill Confirmed. What kind of inspiration is behind this EP?
[Answer] My inspiration for my latest tracks come from making a few co-op tunes with Damage, I wanted to make something more powerful.
[Question] You seem to be really good at online FPS games. Do you think it has something to do with your military background?
[Answer] Me and my buddy have been playing Call Of Duty since the first one came out and most other FPS games since pretty much, way before i ever was in the army.
[Question] What can we expect to hear or see from you in the near future? Are there any other projects or music you are currently working on?
[Answer] Hard to say, got a few psy tracks for maybe another EP at some point. Most other projects are kind of on hold since i´m working construction to pay the bills.
[Question] Do you have some advice for younger producers?
[Answer] If you´re new to producing music then EXPERIMENT!! Turn the knobs all the way to hear what they really do. Learn from all genres of music. Get proper monitors, fix your room acoustics and buy one good hardware synth because software isn´t quite there yet in comparison.
[Question] From your perspective, what is the meaning of life?
[Answer] The meaning of life is to live it and enjoy it.
