FREQUENCY UNDERGROUND INTERVIEW WITH KLAWS:

◾Real Name: Claudiu Nedelea

◾Current city: Greenville SC

◾DJ Collective: Rethink Techno & Pangea Productions

◾How did you come up with your dj name: a while back I made a drawing for a tattoo/ logo that i now have on my leg. The result resembled a geometric claw so that’s where Klaws came about…

◾How and when did you get into djing: 
When I was living in Charleston SC for college more than 15 years ago, a friend of mine from Morocco, Gadi bought some dj equipment and started organizing cool little house parties, which made me wander how the music that I had would fit together. I was immediately hooked and gave it a shot. After that I started playing at parties and clubs in Charleston as well as back in Romania and France for some time before moving to Greenville.    

◾Who are your musical influences and what is your inspiration: My inspirations and influences come from many diverse Places such as Romanian breakbeat artists Suie Paparude, all the Detroit techno wizards or some of the earlier Paul Ritch sounds. Not to forget jazz, dub or funk classics. 

◾Describe your sound as a DJ: a blend of dubbed out minimal, deep techno grooves, and a sprinkle of ChicAgo house wrapped together in a funky mixture with lots of dub vibes. According to the settings I play in, I like to keep it deep, spacey, and with a driving groove. 

◾What does the future hold in store for you as an artist: looking forward to an original Klaws release for Pure Perception Records coming up soon, and planning an amazing 48+ hours of music & vibes at Pangea festival - June 10 to 12. More musical collaborations and shows to be announced..😉.
