Fabric 42 - Âme · Sunday 14 September 2008
Een aantal jaren geleden ontstond vanuit het niets een grote hype rondom Âme. Zowel het titelloze album uit 2004 als het in 2005 uitgebrachte “Rej” maakten heel wat los in het clubcircuit. Na het met succes mixen van de Coast 2 Coast dubbelaar van afgelopen jaar ligt nu Fabric 42 gemixt door Âme in de schappen.

Coast To Coast - Mixed by Âme · Saturday 23 June 2007
De mannen van Âme zijn de vierde samenstellers die een deel uit de succesvolle ”Coast To Coast” reeks van het NRK label voor hun rekening nemen. Legendarische jocks als Quentin Harris, Kerri Chandler en Ron Trent ging het enorm populaire duo al voor; niet de minste namen dus.

Op eerste pinksterdag is het dan eindelijk zover dan is de kickoff van Mouse met niemand minder dan Innervisions held: Ame! Voor zijn optreden bij Mouse heeft Ame een exclusief interview afgegeven.

Which band or artist has influenced you the most?
Too many to name them. I think that it's all about listening to a lot of different music. At the moment I'd say more classical music is influencing me. Such as Richard Strauss, Debussy, Terry Riley, just to name a few.

You are both DJ's and producers. What do you like the most?
I prefer both. I mean the possibility to choose and switch between both worlds. And there is performing live now that attracts me a lot. I would not like to do only one thing!

Ame is made of the duo Kristian Beyer & Frank Wiedemann, but often at gigs only Frank or Kristian plays. Why is this?
Because often you have got only 2 hours to play and it does not make so much sense to divide this into two, right? Besides, I see Kristian many days during the week when we are in the studio. The weekends are for ourselves

If you were completely free to choose, which artist or track would you like to remix?
There are many … but one thing is for sure: it has to be something out of another musical context so that we can add something or turn it into another direction to merge different musical styles.

The electronic highway is moving very fast over the last few years. What do you think about the technical changes in the scene and the reduction of vinyl DJ's?
Everybody is free to do what he likes. I still like playing with vinyl and cd's instead of watching my computer. Mainly because of the sound and the feeling. I think that Serato etc are only small steps to a next level controller. Something that's really new. And then, who knows? Maybe I also switch.
But I still just love vinyl as a physical product with a cover that I can see and touch.

What is your biggest musical wish?
Composing an electronic symphony played by a real orchestra.

Besides the passion for electronic music, what do you like to do when you're not professionally performing or working on music?
Eat, drink and rest!

What can we expect from Ame in the upcoming years?
Oh, years? Well, we just finished the score for a silent movie called “Dr. Caligari” which we performed live with Dixon and Henrik Schwarz. This was really a lot of fun and inspiration. So maybe we continue working on soundtracks. But for sure we're also continuing doing dance music. The next 12inch is nearly finished and a remix for DFA should see the light of day within the next weeks (or months?). Personally for me the next big thing that just starts is to perform âme tracks live.

What is your favorite spot to play and what's the specific reason for that?
There are also many many places that I like because of there special Atmosphere or great hosts or simply for their great soundsystem and an open minded audience that follows what I do.
