Chronovision<\/em>, how did you find the experience, you must have learnt a lot about production?<\/b><\/p>\nI love producing. I want to produce more albums. I couldn’t tell you what I’ve learned but can say that I have (learned).<\/p>\n
You travelled a lot to make this album, can you tell us a little more about that?<\/b><\/p>\n
I had a lot of fun getting more aquatinted with Los Angeles (recording at Fairfax (previously Sound City) with Kevin Augunas, and living there for a little over a month\/ living at a house with a grand piano in it in Atlanta while working with Ben Allen\/ spending time with Ben Baptie at Electric Lady in Jimi Hendrix’ old bedroom\/ recording with Phil Ek at Avast in Seattle\/ Recording with Hunter Lea at Uptone and using some of Hal Blaine’s personal percussion instruments.<\/p>\n
As a Brooklyn resident, does New York hold a place in your heart in terms of making music \u2013 is it a special source of inspiration for you?<\/b><\/p>\n
In a lot of ways, it is. I find New York can feel suppressive at times, which forces one to either break free and locate their truest self, or descend into an infinite pit of emptiness.<\/p>\n
You\u2019ve been described as \u2018Surf-Pop Revival\u2019 but who are your musical heroes?<\/b><\/p>\n
Maurice Ravel, Leonard Bernstein, Tchaikovsky, Stravinsky, John Adams<\/p>\n
Lastly, what\u2019s next for Oberhofer?<\/b><\/p>\n
