Episode 025 and Novi Sad, Serbia based Mass Digital (@mass-digital), interview below:

BSV: Hello Mass! Are you working as a digitalisation ambassador in government of Serbia? Your tracks are all around the web and always in high quality.
MASS DIGITAL: Hehehe, thanks for this kind words. Yeah, seems like people love my vibe and share around.

BSV: You published for All Day I Dream and other famous record labels and people in Serbia don’t know you very well. Are you focused more on the international market?
MASS DIGITAL: Over the last 10 years my music was released on some of the best electronic music labels like ADID, TRYBESof, Kindisch, Hoomidaas, Toolroom, Cr2, Sol Selectas, Akbal, Iboga...
Yes, I’m more focused on the international market at the moment.

BSV: Two remixes and one unpublished original shared with this mixtape. Music production is your primary goal or you want to travel the world as a DJ too?
MASS DIGITAL: From Monday to Friday I’m in my home studio working on original music and remixes. Yes, music production is my primary goal at the moment, but next year will be focused more on touring worldwide.

BSV: We found that your EQ-ing is just perfect. How long does it take to get these skills?
MASS DIGITAL: Heh, we, music producers, are in constant battle with the mixdown and sound, so every track is a story for itself. Advice for all producers is to learn and listen as much as they can.

BSV: There is a signature voice intro with all your mixes. Did you make this recordings while drinking coffee on Mondays?
MASS DIGITAL: Hah, yeah, when I’ve started accepting mix / podcast requests, wanted to make it special and to be closer to the listener. And yeah, people love my voice intros and I really enjoy making those.
You will hear a lot of these intros and personal messages as at the moment I have mix requests till October 2022.

BSV: Have you ever been on ADID showcase? Maybe @ Exit Festival in 2019?
MASS DIGITAL: No, but there will be an ADID Festival in May next year, so 🙂  ... 

BSV: Living in clouds vs realism? What’s your choice?
MASS DIGITAL: I’m a dreamer, aquarius. That says all.

Episode 027 & Arandjelovac, Serbia based Jelly For The Babies (@jellyforthebabies), interview below:

BSV: Somewhere in Mirijevo in 2014 I stumbled upon a free download pack with your track “In Front Of Me”. Artist name was interesting at first, but I didn't know that the producer was from the same country as I am. I used that track in one of my early mixes. Are you impressed?
JELLY FOR THE BABIES: To be honest I used to hear this. When I started producing my main goal was to spread my sounds across the globe and electronic music in my country wasn't so popular like in some other countries... Probably that's why lot of them, who enjoy electronic music, from my country, didn't know I am from here.

BSV: If we compare your production from that period with the current, did you switch more to progressive house style?
JELLY FOR THE BABIES: Well yes. During the period, from my start, till now, my taste in music changed a lot and evolved from electro house more towards deep and progressive house music.

BSV: Are you jeally for the babies? You have kiddos?
JELLY FOR THE BABIES: Don't have kids yet, but will work on that.

BSV: You are the owner of several record labels. How do you manage to read those strong demo emails?
JELLY FOR THE BABIES: I work, a lot.

BSV: Hilly landscapes. Is that your inspiration?
JELLY FOR THE BABIES: And not only that... Long walks through the woods, mountains, hiking... Positive emotions.
 
BSV: So, only kick / drum samples in your production? What’s your fovorite synth vst?
JELLY FOR THE BABIES: Tone Gladiator I used the most, so let's pick that one.

BSV: Do you know how to play a “kolo” and whether you attended piano accordion or button accordion lessons?
JELLY FOR THE BABIES: I knew to play some cause I played harmonica in musical school when I was younger.

Episode 034 & Pisa, Italy based Roberto Bartolini (@roberto-bartolini), interview below:

BSV: Hi Roberto! As listeners, we can assume that you are a very experienced DJ. Is that true?
ROBERTO BARTOLINI: Hi, thanks for hosting me in the BSV series, I am very happy! I don't know if I can say I have a great experience, for sure I have a solid base. I started mixing when I was sixteen, seventeen years old with Technics sl-1200 turntables and after a short time I started working as a DJ in clubs in the middle of the Adriatic coast having been born in San Benedetto del Tronto. I followed this path until I started my university studies (quite late). Two years ago during the lockdown period due to the Covid pandemia I bought a professional console, headphones, two speakers and USB sticks. And here I am!

BSV: Your transitions are just perfect. Tell us more about M series on SoundCloud.
ROBERTO BARTOLINI: Thanks so much for your appreciation on my transitions. The "M" in my series on Soundcloud stands for Master. When I was working in discos in the 80s/early 90s, it was common - and I did too - to duplicate a master magnetic tape with a Teac double cassette recorder for those who requested it. I used to call the matrix tapes "Master", as I do now keeping the initial... I have just passed 50 sets of my series, normally I release every two weeks on Thursday nights. I use the decks, mixer, equalizer and synchro (when it works) to mix without any other effect. I must say that technology today helps for many things. Seeing the track allows me to design an hour-long set in a very short time, I can pin down in some sort of language how the mixes should be done, this allows me to have myself an experience as a listener: the vinyl record is a black object, the possible attachment points are not actually visible, you have to know where they are and you have to count the beats of the musical turn which, depending on the genre, may not be too easy to remember; and finally also to know so much about the mixes to perform that once the master tape is produced I can no longer listen to it... and then the possibility of making some mistakes is always around the corner.

BSV: Lyrics come through your tapes. You are a VOX superfan?
ROBERTO BARTOLINI: Well yes, I like the voice as an instrument, not all, but for example the penultimate track in this session is sung by Lauren L'aimant, who has a very nice voice, I am amazed how such an emotional track can be produced with just a few notes and a single voice.

BSV: It’s not hard to notice that your covers are quite interesting. Are you a graphic designer?
ROBERTO BARTOLINI: No, I am not a graphic designer. Initially I was looking for the cover images simply by association, starting from the favorite track of the set, I searched images using google by continuing to follow links in a sort of situationist drift until I found the right image for me at that moment. From a certain point onwards, in order to give a stylistic continuity to the images, I started to choose the covers from an modern art site, choosing emerging authors in general but also some established ones.

BSV: Have you ever thought about going into music production?
ROBERTO BARTOLINI: No, I do not think I have the ability. In my opinion to make music, although electronic music, you must have a minimal musical background.

BSV: In situation where you have to choose, would you rather pick progressive or deep house sound?
ROBERTO BARTOLINI: I prefer [Melodic] Deep House, especially with very low sounds and slightly disturbing low frequencies, the third to last track (@bakkalive) is an example of this type of sound.

BSV: Where can we hear your mixes in live. Are you a resident of a club?
ROBERTO BARTOLINI: No, I am not. Hopefully one day, I am only 56, it's never too late.... <3

Episode 039 & Serbia born worldwide rising star Lanna (@lannamusic_ofc), interview below:

BSV: Hello Lanna! First of all, we want to thank you for this mixtape. It is a privilege to interview and host such a talented young person / artist. Welcome to the team of visionaries!
LANNA: Thanks for having me! And big thanks for the kind words. Hope you enjoy the mix! 😊

BSV: It’s hard to believe that you are a teenager while we listen to your music. Really? How is that possible?
LANNA: Haha, I get that a lot! Electronic music has been playing in my house since I was little. I joined a DJ-ing school at the age of twelve and instantly fell in love with vinyls. But honestly, back then, I didn’t have a clue that “Lanna“ would become an artistic project on this level so fast. I’m loving every moment of it!

BSV: You started with music production recently and if we listen to ’’My Journey’’ track we notice influences of different genres. How would you describe the sound that you are playing?
LANNA: I approach music production with a clear idea of how I want the track to sound. I draw inspiration from various sources, such as my emotions, experiences, the artists I look up to and the mood I want to convey. This serves as a guiding force throughout the creative process. 

BSV: After this year's EXIT Festival performance at Dance Arena you stand out as a rising star of the global electronic music scene. What can you say about this experience from 3 weeks ago?
LANNA: The thing I enjoy the most is watching and feeling the crowd as they feel me and the music I play, and that exchange of the energy at EXIT Festival was next level. I deeply believe that you can communicate so much more through music than with words or any other medium. This was my third performance at EXIT Festival, and the first at the iconic Dance Arena. It was absolutely awe-inspiring, no words can describe it! 

BSV: We saw some news about another competition that you won and that you are going to Las Vegas to play some music there. Tell us something about that.
LANNA: Yes, that’s right! It all started when the LMF festival announced a DJ competition at the beginning of April. Little did I know that out of over 120 talented young DJs from all over the world, my mix would be selected! And to make things even more exciting, it opened doors to an incredible trip to Las Vegas! I can't believe I'll have the chance to play at one of the clubs there. It's yet another dream come true! 😊 

BSV: Being in the Beatport top 100 chart is a huge success for a first release. How did you connect with the famous British producer?
LANNA: Yes, it's been an incredible achievement, especially since this EP made me the youngest producer to reach the Beatport Top 100 list! My collaboration with Sebastian Haas began in 2021 after I played one of his tracks at EXIT festival’s NSNS Stage. He took notice of my work and reached out to me with the idea to create a track together. I shared several project ideas with him, and we settled on two that we developed together. Working with him was amazing, and it resulted in a progressive-house EP I’m very proud of. We’ve just finished two more tracks, but in a slightly different genre, and you’ll get to hear them very soon! 

BSV: Favorite artists / producers at the moment?
LANNA: Oh, that's a tough one! I have so much respect for all my DJ colleagues, and it's hard to pick just one favorite artist or producer. There are so many talented individuals out there, and I love exploring and discovering new music from various artists. It's an exciting time in the electronic music scene, and I'm constantly inspired by the creativity and talent of my peers.

Episode 041 & Belgrade, Serbia based Peter Portman (@peterportman93), interview below:

BSV: Hello broski! Such a pleasure to have you here. Welcome to the crew of visionaries!
PETER PORTMAN: Hi @beatsoundvisions team! Thanks for having me on this episode. Winter just kicked in, I brought you some tunes to warm up a little bit!

BSV: This recording is a “hell of a job”. Where on earth do you find these tracks?
PETER PORTMAN: Thanks for kind words, yes I do a lot of digging, from promo pools from email over listening tracks from the sets, I think the urge to discover new tunes keeps me digging deeper than usual, and after all this is our job, right? 

BSV: You had China tour at the end of September. How was that experience?
PETER PORTMAN: The China tour was really above expectations. Even though it was for their holidays where everyone traveled domestic, or international. I think I've managed to feel the true vibe of the country. Food was awesome too! Once again big thanks to my team Uros & Leo for making it happen!

BSV: Munich, Paris, London, New York… We dance… Which scene is your favourite?
PETER PORTMAN: Every scene has its own charm, really depends on the mood and also culture. Personally or from my point of view  however you want to call it... Letting loose without phones and enjoying the moment itself.

BSV: People that follow you know that you like to experiment with sound and that you are not limited by particular genre. Are you able to describe your frequencies?
PETER PORTMAN: Sometimes I do find it difficult explaining myself, really it's up to reading the room, the crowd, and the mood I am currently in. As I said above I try to listen to as much as possible a wide variety of the music (also non electronic) so I can try to bring together into one unique frequency.  I think you just need to have patience and to be there when magic happens.

BSV: The wonderkid of Serbian electronic music scene, can we call you like that?
PETER PORTMAN: /

BSV: Do you believe in magic while playing Romanian minimal? 
PETER PORTMAN: I think I don't see myself as a Rominimal DJ at all. I am A DJ, and  music in general is magic and it can be both healing or damaging.

BSV SESSION 041 I PETER PORTMAN

Episode 042 & Nuremberg / Darmstadt, Germany based DJ duo Above Us (@eska22, @faestmusic => @above-us-music), interview with duo member Es.Ka below:

BSV: Hello there and thanks for the submission! How did you find us? Google of your “Resilient” track maybe? 😉
ES.KA: I know your channel for a long time since we are supporting each other and l thought it would be a great opportunity to promote new project “Above Us“ 🙂

BSV: From progressive to melodic techno, from dark to hard techno. What’s your range in electronic music?
ES.KA: For my single project it’s something between melodic techno and peak time techno. Above Us aims for a more melodic and deeper sound like I used to play some years ago.

BSV: If we listen your production, it translates into “Eyes Wide Shut” feeling (sounds from the movie). That was your goal?
ES.KA: /

BSV: Tell us something about Illusions @ Haus33. What’s the concept?
ES.KA: Illusions is a melodic techno / peak time techno event which distinguish itself from other events at Haus33 by sticking to slower styles of techno instead of playing mostly hard techno like other events do.  

BSV: We found the info on Beatport about your first ever track (2021). How did you get in electronic music? When was that?
ES.KA: I started DJing 6 years ago in melodic and deep techno genre. In 2021 I decided that I want to make my own music which I can perform in clubs.

BSV: What’s behind your DJ duo artist name (meaning)?
ES.KA: It conveys the meaning that the music is always above us. We found that it has a good sound to it and we we're aiming for a two word name.

BSV: Is there maybe some interesting story about how you guys decided to do music together? Let us know about your long term goals…
ES.KA: The funny thing is that we know each other since we were kids. Didn't have contact at all for about 25 years and figured out that we are both into electronic music. Each of us in own project. So we decided to create something together. Long term goals would be getting in touch and getting collabs with more established artists and playing more shows.

Episode 044 & Romania based OlaRu (@olaru_bogdan24), interview below:

BSV: Welcome to the team Bogdan and big thanks for the submission! How are you today?
OLARU: Hello and thank you for the invitation. I hope you like my DJ set. I'm fine, I started working on a new EP.

BSV: Micro house or minimal? What’s your journey?
OLARU: Difficult question, it depends on my mood, but I think micro house is the base. Few years ago I started to explore this style of music, it was mind-opening for me.

BSV: We saw in your portfolio that you did a warm up for Stefano Noferini. How was that experience?
OLARU: It was a great party, I'm a big Stefano Noferini fan, he's an exceptional person, in the same evening Just2 and Luca M were also there, so yes, it was something special for me.

BSV: Very unique vibes with this mixtape. How was this mix recorded?
OLARU: It was recorded in the studio together with some friends. I really like to use music to translate my feelings, I like to create a story where listeners can dream.

BSV: Are you going to Berlin often?
OLARU: Not really, I prefer London, Barcelona. But I don't rule out Berlin, and I think you can find the best techno there.

BSV: If you take a look into your folders, which DJ is the most frequently present?
OLARU: I don't have a specific producer, clearly many Romanian producers, such as Bryz, Nu Zau, Barac, and many others.

BSV: Bandcamp type of person?
OLARU: I personally don't use it much, I collaborate with several music production companies, but I have moments when I listen and discover very good artists.

Episode 045 & Serbia based Cosmic Eve (@cosmic_eve), interview below:

BSV: Hello there! Thanks a lot for your lovely mixtape. Who is behind Cosmic Eve project?
COSMIC EVE: Cosmic Eve is the creation of an artistic soul who has loved music for as long as she can remember. In my youth, I was involved in singing and acting. Coming from a musical family, l've always been drawn to soul and pop. As I grew up, I developed a love for jazz and funk, eventually finding my way to electronic music, with a strong affinity for House and later minimal styles.

BSV: We are curious about your connection with Vienna city. Did that scene influence your cosmic music journey?
COSMIC EVE: Vienna, in my opinion, is a city that has greatly enriched my general knowledge of musical culture. The classical music scene, along with jazz and funk, has been incredibly influential. I often attended opera and musicals, where l even performed myself, singing in musicals. Additionally, I sang in a church choir and in a jazz-funk band. As for the electronic music scene, I gained most of my knowledge in Serbia and later in Romania.

BSV: People in Serbia know you as minimal dj. Tell us a bit more about your sound.
COSMIC EVE: Listening to electronic music, I've always been drawn to deep and powerful bass lines that play a melody in combination with percussion and jazz elements. I had never come across the so-called "ro-minimal" sound before, even though this genre isn't officially recognized, known for its calm yet massive sound. It wasn't until five years ago, after returning to Serbia from Vienna, that I happened to hear a few tracks in a studio that were a revelation to me. In that moment, I felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude, looking up at the sky and thanking a higher power for finally giving me the answer. I always knew such a sound existed, but l haven't heard it before then. I hope this response makes sense to you. My sound typically ranges between 123-126 BPM, depending on whether it's an intro or not. l am particularly drawn to a deep and rich bass, combined with a house sound and organic instruments layered over it. I prefer not to limit myself to a single genre, allowing for more creativity and diversity in my sets.

BSV: Few days ago you played at Vibe Festival in Serbia. How was that experience?
COSMIC EVE: I'm glad you asked about the Vibe Festival because I'm still under its impression. The organization was serious, the sound was perfect, and I felt great on stage. Serbia should have such an intimate yet high-quality festival in every city. Vibe supports local artists in every way, and I want to thank them for everything and wish them much success in the coming years.

BSV: What kind of software you are using and how did you get into music production?
COSMIC EVE: Honestly, I knew that if I wanted to pursue this branch of music seriously, I needed to understand every aspect of it: musical education including knowledge of solfeggio and listening to different genres, mixing and practice, knowing how to mix records, and finally, production where I can highlight my distinctive sound. My father is a sound engineer, and after observing my passion for a long time, he finally agreed to teach me, starting with Cubase, the program of his youth, and later Ableton. Attending music school and playing the piano helped me quickly master the basics. I was very fortunate to have my father's guidance and later the support of colleagues like Petar Cvetkovic and Zlatnici.

BSV: Spotify or iTunes type of person?
COSMIC EVE: I don't have Spotify yet, and since l use Macintosh, l use iTunes. I have to admit, I haven't had the chance to explore this topic further.

BSV: Can you please share with us some tracks from your current playlist that you are listening on repeat?
COSMIC EVE: Honestly, I don't listen to individual tracks on repeat. I prefer listening to sets from my favorite artists.

Episode 046 & Czech Republic based Lunara (@user-193864401), interview below:

BSV: Hello Lucia! Thanks for joining us! How are you today?
LUNARA: I am feeling great! Catching a bit nostalgic vibe from the change of the weather, but that is normal. An autumn is quite inspirational season for me. Thank you for invitation. 😎

BSV: We met each other in the city that doesn’t exist. Tell us something about your journey from your hometown to European San Francisco scene.
LUNARA: Ah 😄. I did not hear this joke about Brno before, but truly it is very small city in comparison with Prague, but very heart-warming. I came here ten years ago to study university and started my music journey few years ago by spinning some vinyls at home during long winter nights. ✨

BSV: How would you describe the sound of Brno?
LUNARA: Very catchy, bassy, groovy. Mostly would say there is great techno scene and a lot of very talented people doing music and DJing. I am starting to run my own project Tribute to House which will be mostly oriented to house music, to open up the space for more music genres. We also have here an amazing collective CandyCore founded by my friends Laura and Jenia which contributed also a lot to Brno music scene. 

BSV: We heard that you have some vinyl mixing knowledge. Who taught you that?
LUNARA: I started with vinyl records. I love it so much! 🙂 It made me fall in love with DJing, I enjoyed holding the records in my hand and have the possibility to jam and play around with the sounds. My boyfriend Martin Duke, also DJ, taught me how to play.

BSV: Your mixtape is so cool with some magnificent track selection. Is this kind of vibe the one that you are usually playing in front of people?
LUNARA: Thank you, I am glad you like it. Yeah it is, but of course it depends from the event and my current vibe. I think this mix is affected by the weather a lot and my inspirational mood. 

BSV: Are you considering music production? Familiar with some DAW?
LUNARA: Yeah, you never know what future will bring. I love to sing also, maybe in the future I will record some vocals and start to explore. I see Ableton almost every day, cause my boyfriend is producing music, so at least I am watching for now. 😄

BSV: Favorite track at the moment?
LUNARA: Now getting nostalgic with Pacific 202 by 808 State again.

Episode 047 & Belgrade, Serbia based Celestia (@celestiaofc), interview below:

BSV: Hello Tara! How are you today? Any scheduled activities?
CELESTIA: Hello BSV, thank you for inviting me. Today I feel very excited and I'm looking forward to new opportunities.

BSV: We listened to your warm-up set on New Year's Eve, and we liked it that much. What is your sound range?
CELESTIA: It depends on the occasion, usually, my sound range is from 145 to 150 bpm but on NYE It was a different story because it was a warm-up set and a bit challenging for me, way below my sound range, but still dark and groovy. That's how I would describe my style.

BSV: You have a very interesting artist name. Are you inspired by the “Celeste” Bicep track?
CELESTIA: Actually, I'm inspired by a character from my little pony “Princess Celestia“. Meaning: heavenly, of the sky. A blessing from the blue above, Celestia is a feminine name rooted in Latin, meaning “heavenly.” Derived from the masculine Latin name Celaestis, signifying something “of the sky,” Celestia is a wish upon a star for the angel that baby is hoped to always and forever be.

BSV: As a professional dancer is it easier in your opinion to follow the rhythm and jack to the groove with that kind of previous experience?
CELESTIA: It helps a lot. Being a dancer in this scene can be an advantage. Based on my previous experience, I can say that it's easier for me to listen to the music, completely lose myself, and enjoy the rhythm.

BSV: How carefully do you choose tracks for your sets and is it hard to adjust to the space/people in front of you?
CELESTIA: I collect music all the time. Usually, I make a live selection of music. Depends on vibes, and people. I like to spread positivity and happiness, control the atmosphere and energy and make people enjoy themselves. That's my purpose as a DJ.

BSV: Your set is very energetic and we just wanna dance to it. Is this the vibe you prefer while playing in clubs?
CELESTIA: Of course, that's the vibe I'm looking for. 

BSV: Any upcoming gigs?
CELESTIA: I have 3 gigs upcoming in March:

14th - Private event 
15th - Private event after that Kult b2b with my wonderful colleague @czemusic, we are preparing energetic groove techno session.
22nd - Drugstore with a new event called HAOS. And many more. Thank you so much for having me.💖

Episode 048 & Berlin, Germany based DJ Motion (@motion_dj), interview below:

BSV: Hello Hennadii! How are you? How was your day?
DJ MOTION: Hi! I’m in such a great mood today! It’s sunny in Berlin, which is quite rare!

BSV: Tell us something about your roots. Where are you from and how did you get into electronic music?
DJ MOTION: I am originally from Ukraine and have been passionate about music since childhood. In 2007, I embarked on my journey as a DJ. My tastes have evolved several times - from the Minimal and Electro of those times to modern Afro House, Melodic House, and Downtempo. But one thing has always remained unchanged - my place behind the decks. It’s a kind of drug, albeit a legal one, but just as hard to give up.

BSV: About your mixing routine, how do you get all of these smooth transitions?  Do you practice a lot?
DJ MOTION: I think it’s like learning to ride a bike. Once you’ve learned, it’s impossible to forget. But you’re right - there’s always room to grow. You need to practice and improve. A lot depends on what kind of DJ you are. If you’re an underground DJ, you’ll never bother with scratching, word play, tone play, and all that. But in any case, you should at least have a general understanding and try different mixing techniques for self-development. I believe the main secret isn’t even in practice, but in track selection and sorting by key - this is the key to a great mix.

BSV: We notice that you are currently in a “progressive” state of mind and we want to know more about your evolving process of changing musical genres.
DJ MOTION: Thank you for an interesting question. I think that tastes change with age. At first, you try to follow general trends, discovering more and more new things around you. But only with time and experience do you come to understand what your soul truly desires. I believe this is the main reason why DJs change the genres they work with.

BSV: You are a Berlin based artist. Is it easier for you to get some gigs and to play music to the “right” people?
DJ MOTION: I don’t think the number of gigs depends on the city you’re in. Rather, it depends on how many connections you have in that city, especially in the club scene. Without them, getting behind the decks at a venue is quite a challenge. Nevertheless, despite my relatively short time here, I have already gotten to know the local club culture and had the opportunity to perform several times for the right people you’re talking about. I continue working on integrating into the local club scene. And those who work toward a goal always achieve results. That’s why I’m confident in the success of what I’ve started.

BSV: Your favorite track/artist at the moment?
DJ MOTION: Unfortunately, I can’t give you a definitive answer to this question because I don’t have one favorite track or one favorite artist. I listen to a lot of music, so it’s impossible for me to choose just one and call it the main one. I think you understand me.

BSV: Are you familiar with some DAW?
DJ MOTION: Yes, during my practice, I had the chance to work with Logic Pro and Ableton Live. I think these are some of the most popular software programs in the DJing sphere, but I feel they are more suited for sound producers, and I don’t consider myself one - at least not yet. I do plan to dive into this new and exciting world for myself, but that will be a completely different story.
