Asian Dan Interview: Meroz

1. Who is Meroz?
Musician, Producer, then DJ
I’m not worried about having the “coolest font” or the most “Retro Look” Its more about putting out quality music, be it using a sample or straight raw production.
I’m not letting peoples opinions on what is the new thing persuade me in the style of music
I produce. I make what I am feeling at the moment or what is presented to me.

2. What are your biggest influences? What was your first musical memory?
My Family and Friends, Positive people as well. Good Books, Movies and Art of all kinds.
My First Musical memory would be strapping on a pair of headphones at a very young age trying to sing along to the radio at early hours of the morning. After being put to bed. After Finding out I was terrible at singing I decided to play percussion Instruments.

3. Who are your favorite producers/DJs?
Todd Edwards, Paul Johnson, Daft Punk, Sebastien Leger,Teenage Bad Girl, Neil Landstrumm, Fred Falke, Alan Braxe, Hystereo, Cassius, Air, Phoenix,Frankie Knuckles, Cajmere, Sneak , Rush , Skip, the list is waaaaay to long.
Basically anyone from the early to mid 90’s and the first french touch wave House or Techno.

Squarepusher – Just A Souvenir – Download and Stream Now!


squarepusher.net

Wow. That is all I got to say. There are quite a few pop moments on this album. The first track totally reminds me of the Andre 3000 produced John Legend’s track “Green Light”. Andre 3000 is very public about his love for Squarepusher. Once again good job Mr. Jenkinson. For some reason I feel like the next Daft Punk album will be moving in this direction. The Daft duo are also big fans of Squarepusher, they put “Do You Know Squarepusher?” on a playlist they curated last year.

PS. I totally forgot that Asian Dan is 1 years old. It’s birthday was 3 days ago on the 14th, I just have been busy with school I totally forgot. Thank You all for reading and supporting Asian Dan. I cannot believe how far this blog has come in a year. I have met and made so many friends on the interwebs as well in the real world 🙂 Thank You to all the artists that have made mixes for Asian Dan like NT89, Luca C, Jean Nipon, Luck On Strike, Neon Coyote and Astrolabe. Let’s all support these artists! Thanks for all the artists that have done interviews as well!! Cheers! Some big changes are finally coming soon!! So stay tuned! Once again Thank You all!!!! 🙂

Asian Dan Interview: Neon Coyote

1. Who is Neon Coyote?
Will: John, Noel aka Chico Love, and I. Three dudes born and raised on
the east coast. We started making music together last year, just for
shits and giggles.

2. What are your top 3 songs that make you dance?
Will: Fred Falke – 8:08 pm at the beach. Daft Punk – High Life. John
Dahlback- July First.
John: Surkin – White Knight Two, Daft Punk – One More Time, Congorock – Exodus
Chico – Louis La Roché – On The Floor, Best Fwends –
M.Y.S.E.L.F.(XXXchange Remix), Mylo – Otto’s Journey

3. What is your favorite remix ever?
Will:I have no idea where to begin thinking about a solid answer. My
favorite remixes right now are Bloody Beetroots vs. Wu Tang, Aeroplane
vs. Cut Copy, Fred Falke and Lifelike vs. anything, Fake Blood vs.
anything, Danger vs. SymbolOne, Anoraak Vs. College, and Shinichi
Osawa kills it.
John: Radiohead – Nude (HIPSTER RUNOFF Remix)
Chico – The Treaure Fingers remix of Snowden’s Anti-Anti was the
first remix I heard from this genre of music. I loved it then and I
could still listen to it now and have a good time.

4. What is your production style? What equipment do you use?
Will: Start with an idea, then try to make that kinda, and usually end
up with something completely different. Then figure out what I want to
do with the instrumental or whatever else I made. I use ableton,
logic, and a touch of micro korg.
John: Get stoned. I usually just roll it up in papers.

5. What is your DJ philosophy?
Will:Have fun and don’t take shit too seriously.
John: Make others dance as you would like to be made dance.
Chico: The Cool Kids said it best… Just keep them off the walls.

6. What are you listening to lately? What is the next big thing? What do
you think of the current electronic music scene?
Will:The heavy hitters on my shuffle are John Dahlback, Fred Falke,
Lifelike, Pacific!, Aeroplane, and Kopia as always. On that note I
think the next big things are Donovan, Damage, and The Franchising. As
for the music scene, S’all good as long as I keep getting sweet songs
to listen to all day.
John: I got that Machine’s Don’t Care 12 minute mix on repeat, they’re
definitely the next ‘big thing’. The current music scene is pretty
huge right now. There’s way too much shit, but there’s also way too
much good shit.
Chico: Lately I’ve been listening to a lot of rap, your Biggie’s,
Snoop, Outkast, Weezy, Clipse, Cool Kids, Juelz. But when I’m not
listening to rap it has to be Fake Blood or whatever I just
downloaded. The current electronic music scene is sounding real good
to me and the fact that the internet has a lot to do with it is cool.
The next big thing will be Damage, so good!

7. Future plans for Neon Coyote?
Will: We are doing a remix for Prairie Cartel’s single “Cracktown”. Then we are playing Whartscape in Baltimore on the 20th of this month and in August we are doing the Brooklyn Electronic Music Festival. Other than that we’re just gonna keep pluggin away and try to get some kind of a tour together.
John: Plus some side projects.
