Hello readers, for this week's interview we have producer and composer Ahmed Abdurahimli
MW: Mr. Abdurahimli, thank you so much for doing this
AA: My pleasure. Thanks
MW: I was really taken with your remix of Tove Lo's "2 Die 4," what made you want to tackle that song?
AA: From the moment that Tove Lo 2 "Die 4" released, I loved listening to that music and thought that I should remix this song in a different way and genre.
MW: Probably, what's so funny about "2 Die 4," for me, is that it quotes the famous "Popcorn" melody - which is not a small statement at all since it's been a long time in the electronic music canon. Did that have anthing to do with your interest in the track?
AA: I have been listening to Popcorn music since I was a child and I really liked it. Different versions of this music were created since that time when it was released in back 1950s . The original version of the Tove Lo - 2 Die 4 song used the melody of the "Popcorn" song in the chorus and I felt this music close to me. Cause this song is also my childhood memories.
MW: A lot of my readers are producers. Can you talk about your setup?
AA: My headphones are Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro 250 ohms, my speakers are M-Audio BX5 D3, my audio interface is Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 (3 rd Gen), and my midi keyboard is Samson Graphite M25
MW: Do you have any favorite gear or software?
AA: I currently produce my music with Fl Studio and its my favorite one . In the future, I'm thinking of learning Ableton Live too.
MW: What's the live scene like where you are?
AA: At the moment I am not taking a stage at any venue. But in the future, I am thinking of taking the stage as a DJ at festivals and clubs.
MW: Anthing on the horizon for the near future?
AA: I am currently working on an EP album. After finishing the album, I plan to release it in the near future. In addition, we will collaborate with some of our musician friends
