For extended Q&A... visit our website ----> pipipi.life <----------

Introduce yourself? Pronouns? Where do you currently reside? 

Hi I’m gianpaolo, nonbinary human. At the moment I am using they/them pronouns. Since 2008 I've produced and dj’d under the name “savile”, and as of this mix I’m transitioning to a new artist name, “gbd”. I live in beautiful brooklyn, new york city.

What track would you listen to... 

If it was the only thing you could listen to 24/7? Alice Coltrane - Turiya and Ramakrishna. It could be any one of a handful from the Coltrane family. Their works have served as a place of solace and safety that’s hard to understate.

Favorite DJ mixing trick?

This is a mental trick, and it definitely changed my playing: in my first
years of DJ’ing i found myself often reaching for tracks based on similar
qualities, like genre, bpm or production style. Instead, I started to prompt myself to select the next track that blended and provided contrast due to how different it was from what played before. I imagined this like building a log cabin upwards, rather than constructing a path of steps in front of me, one after another. This “trick” of challenging myself to choose the next track based on a nonlinear quality, gave me permission to be more personal in how I played, rather than choosing more common likenesses that I felt were more conventional or common. I know this may seem simple but it really opened up my brain:)

What is your favorite party/collective where you reside and why?

I do my best to avoid ranking things that I love. I aspire to avoid hierarchy everywhere. But, if I had to pick one, it would be Dweller. There is such important work happening at the festival and throughout their initiatives. I especially implore white people in this scene who’ve not heard of Dweller to double-back and learn closely from the work they are doing. It’s our responsibility as guests to engage and create in a tradition that is not ours, to learn the roots of the music, and to defer to black and brown people in their efforts to reclaim it and build anew.

If you could transfer all your knowledge from what you do now into something completely different, what would it be and why?

My mind immediately ran to different “practical” applications that I could apply this to, but in the end I am deeply grateful for the life I’m living and I have a hard time imagining another skillset or practice I would apply the same rigor to. I would however love to master other crafts !

What is your most recent favorite DJ mix and why?

This is like 10 months old but still sticking to me. Sometimes one hears a mix from a DJ that makes you realize how deep their ‘crates’ are - this was that mix ! Yumi’s “Haunted Dancehall”

What would you like to see in the future for the dance community?

Boyyyyy this could go a million ways... I find this to be a deeply political
question in 2023. There is no doubt we are experiencing an unraveling of systems and structures around us, and I believe the way forward amongst these ruins must be together. In that way, I hope to see a quieting of this drive for fame and popularity, a broadening sense of empathy for one another, and much, much more cross-collaboration between disparate groups and people across social and class stratifications. At the same time, i hope for an abundance of
spaces created by and for black and brown people, trans and queer people, and much less white hegemonic ownership structures.
