What is the European Citizens’ Initiative? And what causes do European citizens care deeply about, driving them to pitch their own policy ideas to the European Commission?  

CitizenCentral, a podcast series presented by the European Commission, puts a spotlight on European citizens’ initiatives. Organisers tell us why their initiative is important for European society and how they experience raising awareness at EU level. We also interview different topic experts and academics to further explore the issues put forward by these initiatives. Discover what the European Citizens’ Initiative is and how this tool makes it possible to have a greater say in policies that affect your life in the European Union. #EUTakeTheInitiative

A life long lover of nature and constantly intrigued by the natural world and the invisible world of sounds that surround us. This has taken me on a journey of trying to combine my love of exploring and documenting nature with my passion for recording and understanding sound. The idea has since manifested into a number of interesting projects and is in a constant state of evolution. I like the idea of using art as a way to understand the world of science, using imagination to explore scientific ideas beyond the limits of traditional scientific methodology.

I have built up the gear to record and capture sounds for use in films, interviews and music projects or you can check out the library of sounds. I have worked on a number of film projects in a number of different roles and enjoy working behind the camera, which has helped how I work with sound. I like being able to provide a different point of view and unique service for people who like the idea of thinking outside the box, because I live outside the box. 

The most profound sound you will ever hear, is the sound when your heart breaks open

Pour Valka, l'électronique est l'aboutissement d'une longue recherche musicale. Que ce soit au piano, aux percussions, à la trompette ou à la guitare (instruments auxquels il s'est essayé), la répétition d'un schéma mélodique est une idée fixe. L'apprentissage d'une partition lui semble moins intéressant que la magie incantatoire d'une mélodie minimale, qui, répétée à l'infini, ouvre des portes que la mélodie seule ne permet pas d'entrevoir. Résident sur l'une des webradios les plus reconnues de la scène électronique française (Paris One DJ Webradio), Valka propose chaque semaine les dernières nouveautés avec des sets qui oscillent entre la poésie lancinante d'une minimale atmosphérique et la puissance d'une tech house bien trempée. Aussi à l'aise avec les ambiances feutrées qu'avec les gros plateaux, Valka sait séduire le public et s'adapter au-delà des genres : Minimale, Tech House, House, Electro, Break, Funky House, Soulful House, Clubbing ... Valka ne considère pas le DJing comme une simple discipline, mais comme un véritable moyen d'expression artistique. Plusieurs artistes de la scène électronique lui ont déjà fait confiance en venant mixer dans son émission (Valka's Sessions) sur Paris One DJ Webradio, comme Kinky Movement, Joshua Heath, Littlemen, Inland Knights (Drop Music), Random Soul (Salted, Amenti Music), Benny Pecoraio, Ralf Gum (Gogo Music), Timo Maas, Phil Kieran, Ralph Sliwinski, Larrson, Masomenos (en collaboration avec Chris Carrier), Kiki (Bpitch Control), Silicone Soul (Soma), Phil Weeks (Robsoul) ou encore Tonio (Kobayashi). Retrouvez DJ Valka sur Paris One Reverse tous les lundis à 21h et tous les jeudis à 17h. http://www.paris-one.com
