2020 confinement

Close your eyes.

Breathe.

Do you feel the universe expanding around you? Or does it all just stop?
You know it doesn’t, but it’s a different thing to really grasp. The longer you keep those peepers behind their lids, the world starts to drift apart farther and farther.

Given you’re in a relatively safe environment and not like the middle of the road or something, keep staring at the inside of your head for a little longer. Some might call it meditation, some taking a break. The name doesn’t matter though. It really doesn’t. What matters is embracing the space you occupy at this very moment until it begins to embrace you.

You don’t need this new suit, or the latest yPhone, or those weirdly cheap chimes from that online shore. All you need is yourself and the knowledge that what happens happens. 
Oh, and maybe Lemonella to create the retreat you need, with the flick of a switch and the turn of the delay knob. 

Then – and only then – you can begin to bring color to the world around you.

Eyes open, or closed.

Here’s Kantocast Kantocast021 blue Dietrich - “Sketches Of Latin America”

Changing the codes of electronic music, blue Dietrich is an alternative project driven by musician and sound engineer Felipe Paiva. From its conception in 2019, his unique way of producing electronic music has opened the doors to iconic independent labels like Bar25 and Café de Anatolia, as well as festivals like Burning Man and Chateau Perché.

*What pushed you towards music production? Where did the inspiration come from?
I’ve always had this inner need to express my creativity, and it could be in any domain. For me, music was the “tool” that was most adapted (it fits my geek side, it has a certain technicity for instrument learning, it has an incredible power on people), and so it was a perfect match to me. 
When producing, my inspiration comes from the music I hear around me, independently of the style. I actually don’t listen much to electronic music! Instead, I’m more into world music, rock,  jazz, pop, and then I feel the need of “changing” something, adding a certain flavor to something I’ve heard somewhere. What I love in electronic music is this DIY simplicity; you don’t need a full band, a studio and money, everything can be done with few things, and really quickly.

* Do you think music interconnects with culture? How does the environment you live in affect your music?
Music as an expression of culture. The harmonies, scales, instruments, rhythms, everything in music is materializing certain aspects of a culture. Maybe the composer / interpreter doesn’t even know it consciously, but it’s there.
For blue Dietrich, I try to make the people “travel” between different cultures and vibes. To be able to create a certain vibe with the audience, it is really important that I “deconstruct” the music I hear, so that I can “pick” different elements which I’ll then use to create the “flavours” of a certain culture and/or mood. In my point of view, the best way of doing this is to listen to music and travel, “live” things with my own eyes and ears, so that I can better “feel” things, capture them, and then add my “signature” elements, which keep an overall coherence of my work. 

* Do you get inspired by any other form of art?
Yes, mainly cinema. It helps a lot to “dive” into a vibe and get the music out of it.

* What makes a set a good one?
In my point of view, the capacity to take the audience into a trip, through different cultures and emotions. But this is a personal choice; sometimes people just want to dance to the beat and decompress…that’s fine for me too :)

* What’s the process you follow when bringing tunes together? Is it instinctive only or do you plan ahead?
I’ve been mainly playing only live sets since 2 years now, so I tend to compose music oriented to this. I let go of this constraint of making “songs”; I write music which are sometimes just interludes, or themes which are not even electronic music at all. 
Then the process of playing live to me is to define a “plot”, a “script” of where I’m going to take the public to. A “desert” vibe? A “latin” vibe? a “city nights” vibe? Then which moods, “ironic”, “playful”, “sensual”, etc. Once I have this in mind, the choice of the music to be used flows easily, and most of the time I compose some new music for each set, which I “test” to see how the public (and me!) feel it
