Satronica Pre-HE Interview

The hardcore poet is back again gracing the interwebs of THD. About to jump the stage at Hard Electronic this weekend, we figured we’d get a little more info about what’s driving the man behind the mic…

So for new readers, let’s cover the basics…

I live in NYC, which influenced my music as I was able to get a lot of help from artists like Lenny Dee and The Horrorist early in my career. I think in NYC you have the ability to be very experimental in your approach – and this is probably also an influence.

What’s the story behind your DJ Name?

It was just my original Instant Messenger name 🙂 I think I thought it sounded like a combination of satan and electronica. I have no idea why I chose that but could never think of anything that sounded better when I decided to focus on an electronic music project.

Who or what events were responsible for making the Satronica we know today?

Mom making me take piano lessons. Being in junior high and high school band. Being in a high school punk band. Being in a college math rock band. Meeting Alex Chesler in college – the brother of the Horrorist and starting to work on electronic music with him in a project called Acrosome.

 What’s the crux of your musical message now?

Obviously politics but more and more these days the ability to escape from the never ending barrage of hate and stupidity we see on the news every day.

What moment do you cherish the most so far in your career?

First time playing at Dominator. Putting out my first vinyl release on Industrial Strength. Playing at the legendary CBGB’s where I was on same stage as Ramones, Dictators, Wayne County, Blondie, and countless other legendary and not so legendary acts that had played there before.

What specifically are you planning to give to the audience at Hard Electronic?

Lots of new hard tracks from my label with Delirium – Kontaminated Recordings. Tracks from new project called Doom Mekanik coming out soon on Hard Electronic. Lots of my vocal tracks! 😊

What is something you really want to tell the public that we might not have asked about?

The Hard Data rocks – so happy someone is taking an interest in and writing about this scene.

Thanks Matt, we’ll bribe you with some Musicoin for saying nice things about us after the party this week! 😀
