Interview with Lampis

  1. Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

  4. A: A new pop song by a singer-sonwritter that is going to be released next month.

  22. A: I am currently a Music University student, studying music production. I have been playing violin for 16 years and I have made many transcriptions and arrangements. All those experiences have brought me to the point I am right now. I try to learn something new from all my gigs and put it in practice to the next project.

  23. Q: How would you describe your style?

  24. A: Diverse. I don't have a particular style. I just adjust to the emotion I want to express.

  25. Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

  26. A: The people I think are at the top right now are Snarky Puppy and Jacob Collier. I would love to work with either of them because they always have something new to offer.

  27. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  28. A: Always put the feeling in front. Try to make people feel strong things through your music. That is the purpose of music after all.
