En åben snak med iværksætter og tidligere dj & Radiovært Le Gammeltoft om hendes passion for musik .
Music. Welcome to Museo Locale Podcast. My name is Peter Visti and I love music. All my life and my whole life, I have lived music in one way or another. I am a musician and I have been a young man who has been on the phone with my head and listened to music during my whole night sleep, something I still practice. Music is my passion, my drive, my humor and daily forms of music. And what changes music? Music has a unique ability to express feelings and connect people in different cultures. My goal is to find out how different people experience love for music and how it affects their lives. What is the purpose of the new guest? To talk about their relationship to music and how they live and influence music, insect inspiration and, hopefully, some fun and exciting surprises. Welcome to Museo Locale Podcast. Music my drive. Welcome to Le Gamble Toft. Thank you, peter. How nice to see you. In a way, we never see each other again.
Speaker 3:No, we see much less than we have done.
Speaker 2:Yes a little bit.
Speaker 3:Yes, a little bit, but also because if I have to see you, I will visit you at Museo Locale, and I know that, and that is what we are talking about. I don't think you can do that. Maybe once you run into a shuss too much. That has never happened.
Speaker 2:No, it's true, you are. You have to correct me. You are a former radio player, a former DJ.
Speaker 1:I don't know if you play a little at times, but it's a lot of fun.
Speaker 2:And you are a former hard-beat player and what the hell are you doing?
Speaker 3:I was a little bit of a corporate. I am a communications and marketing director at the net company and I am a strategic optimizer and a structure for corporate life. It's pretty fun. It doesn't sound like there is much music in it. It's not.
Speaker 2:But it's fun that I started before.
Speaker 3:We moved to a new office last year, I think in 2023. I am now working with my old office and sitting with my executive advisor, and I thought I should have a high-level speaker with me. You know, working with me is pretty cool for my concentration and I have some music on. Now it's like that. There is not much time for a high-level speaker. No, I haven't had a high-level speaker with me. You haven't heard the music from the first year.
Speaker 2:I have seen it once.
Speaker 3:But it's a bit boring. I am sitting down in the longer time and I have to concentrate on the same thing, where I, with my strange brain, have used the music as a concentration drug. Yes, yes, it's fun you have played for many years.
Speaker 2:You have played the music you started Heartbeats. There was radio on 23 radio. Actually, Do you miss the music? Sometimes I miss having the music.
Speaker 3:I miss having the music. I miss the music because I have the music. It has not gone anywhere. No, it is to be found. But I miss that it should be responsible for other's humor. No, through music. No, you know that. Yes, it's very fun. Yes, it's hard, yes, it's really hard.
Speaker 2:We meet each other. For what is it? 16, 17 years ago, I would have said 20.
Speaker 3:It's hard to be there. It's hard to be there Through the cold, through the cold In its time and there you are.
Speaker 2:There is a lot of channel on you With music, both on radio and DJ. Where do you start your joy from music? Are your parents music at home?
Speaker 3:Yes, I am so privileged that my parents are so happy. I am so happy for music. I have grown up with piano and record players.
Speaker 2:Fantastic.
Speaker 3:And with a family that is very different in their way of listening to music my mother is a very good use of music. But also very good at modern music. I have been with many of my brothers from Radiohead to Kashmir, to Niqaf, to all kinds of things, and I still have that feeling that she can listen to something new. She has not been able to understand old things.
Speaker 2:No, it's just that she was in her youth Exactly.
Speaker 3:My father was the one who taught me Björk, and now he bought a debut in 1991. It came out on CD. He is very much a jazz artist. His interest in music became a bit of a roundabout and they had a lot of vinyl collections I can remember it from. I can remember it from Madonna, vinny Lodder. I can remember it from my father's time. At the time I can remember the music from the album I can remember it from the album.
Speaker 3:And it is a kind of tactile organ that has to be played in the hand. And then, of course, I can remember the music from my father's time. There has always been music at home. They have always been out and listening to music, for concerts and so on. It still goes away. My mother travels around the world to hear opera.
Speaker 2:She is a musician.
Speaker 3:And then it is also where I have gained the interest of the background solo, the spread that Pink Floyd comes from my father and that's what I am attached to.
Speaker 2:That's what you want to be.
Speaker 3:I am fond of Roger Waters. He has not been a tour artist, but his music in the 80s and 80s was quite brilliant.
Speaker 2:Yes, you have to say that. How does it come together Up through childhood? Because it is not. When I remember our talk. At the time you were at the car store and you were thinking about what to do with school. Where do you go after?
Speaker 3:I go to the gym. I was a math student in Urengsall. I was not good at math music.
Speaker 2:You have said that enough.
Speaker 3:You have never asked me to try.
Speaker 2:You have called me to clean up.
Speaker 3:Hold on, I have never cleaned up before. I think you are dying on me right now. To your wife, who has made all the cleaning. No NOA.
Speaker 3:It has not been my interest. Noa is my family and the nature we are founded on. It was also natural that I would go to a math student's school. Then I read the English and Modern Culture and Culture Foundation at the university and did it while I was working. When I was at my first major in car engineering, I had a study at the university. I have now cleared up a bit. My degree at the university has been taken as a self-study student.
Speaker 2:How do you get into the music industry? How do you become a DJ?
Speaker 3:It starts back. It starts with me getting interested in music. At that time I start working for Woman as a journalist. I start with the first story telling. It is not all about print at that time it is 2002. I get known the name and face of the articles I write and then they open with Voice. They open Voice TV. Then I come to a conversation. I am recommended by the director. The director says it is possible to become known on the script Through a monthly magazine. Think about what you can do on TV. You know some music. We would like to make a gaffe on TV and that time the gaffe was cool. The fans were there.
Speaker 3:And they thought I would like that, I would like to make some music, because I can not play it myself. I would like to make it. Then I came in and sat in the master's office in Copenhagen and I had to work with the TV channels. It was not a gaffe. They made it was a child's TV, but there are things I know Delicious pears and then I thought, with delicious pears Can you get some music? Fuck man, I will die.
Speaker 3:Then I bought the English beer. I think I was a bit too shy and a bit too nervous to go out and do something. Then I started to stand in my seat and it was a party seat when all the DJs came to me and played when they were in Copenhagen and played their jobs, and Ronarco and Trant. Then it was like that and then I shifted to Petra and it was the first time I came to Petra. It started to get to the point where I actually came out and played, right right. My first job was An old friend I worked with at Universal Music, conrad. He was my guff.
Speaker 2:Can you remember the guff? I can remember Conrad.
Speaker 3:Conrad worked in the guff he used and I was down there often to see him and when he stood I said what did I come to have? And then he banked 10 CDs on the table and I went home with them and played the cool way to buy music.
Speaker 2:Yes, of course.
Speaker 3:He told me at a certain point You've been talking about the DJ for a long time. Now you have to get out and play. You get down on the road, on the road he's been riding On the road. Or the road it was. Yes, yes. And then I played my first job together with Michael Simpson, who was my player Because he couldn't like Prince. So every time he saw a Prince playing the ball he just picked up the far end and said I don't give a shit about that, so it was a cool experience.
Speaker 2:It was a hard, hard training day. Yes, so it was a good call.
Speaker 3:Yes, so it was bananas.
Speaker 2:Yes, yes. And how was it to get the job? I think it was some kind of a pie. There were not many pies at that point. Did it make you feel better?
Speaker 3:No, it was harder for me, but I think my wife has always. I think I have done everything better for me and it's a sad story to say, but I think Well, because I'm not a classic player, I'm a bit more fanatic in the world and I think I'm doing well. So, as DJ, at that time I think people were very interested. Yes.
Speaker 3:So I think that's not my fault that I'm here with you Only once. Actually it was international. It was more like a sensation-white thing where I was on the floor and I was playing sensation and I was mixing. They were checking and testing and I think that was what they were ready for.
Speaker 2:International because of the effect of the set-up, of taking a woman and that sounds completely wild because the devil is up in the middle of the 2000s, right?
Speaker 3:Yes, I can't remember how long it was 2009,. 10 pieces, 9, 8, 9 pieces I can't remember.
Speaker 2:The time is very exciting.
Speaker 3:Yes, it's exciting. It's very fun.
Speaker 2:Everything is so exciting. How do you feel about the fact that you meet and call each other?
Speaker 3:We meet each other at a Kaiser Chiefs concert where I work for Universal Music and my colleague has a Kaiser Chiefs in the store in the middle of the night 9 Black Isle, so Kaiser Chiefs. And then she says we just went down to the backstage after the concerts. When you work with them you have to go down and say hello to the good concerts.
Speaker 2:That's how it works.
Speaker 3:And then there are a lot of people down backstage and one of them is called. He is in Denmark from top to two, and I want to say hi to him. So you know him, you don't know him. And then we met each other, and then we all agreed that these two bands should see Copenhagen. So we're going to the city. Yes, Manta in Copenhagen. It's up in the park a little bit of the way.
Speaker 3:And we're on the west side, we're on the way I think it's the least it must be called that we go to the club 34, I think.
Speaker 2:If it's some kind of strip-shitting. You don't get to live. I don't know if we want to go there.
Speaker 3:But you can. There's a little bit of a strip-shitting or some kind of clothes, in Denmark at least, but then there's a little porn biograph from the back. And then there's Fredke Fadel.
Speaker 2:So then and you know who Fredke Fadel is. I don't need to explain, I have that one.
Speaker 3:And I sit up with the child, the boy, fredke Fadel he's like my boyfriend and then we talk and in a moment of clicking which I think he had with someone, we were all in a group that just clicked with him, where you were best friends at first and in a moment so we were talking while they were 19 years in England, they were going to get the Eulernagalli-Hall Because we have given them a traumatic experience they never forget. I never get more records. No, they never get bigger again, they never get more hits. But that was our first meeting and then we started talking and I started to come up to his DJ-Jobs. It was very Axel Bauer, the hotelers, the big DJ-Gigs and stuff. So I started to party and just to help more and more of the private business. So I went out and heard him play and then he threw me into Uncle Bunker and I was already on the show, but he threw me into the show.
Speaker 2:You made everything possible on the show. Yes, I did.
Speaker 3:But I think he had the hard to control thing he would make 3 hours of music every Friday. And he would find the music and he would not talk to himself. Yes, it was hard he insisted on making a loan more into the show and I have to say that was very nice Because it was something the best, something the best. They were happy.
Speaker 2:And, as you can see, we were very excited. I think for every year of the big mix and festival and things like that, we get a period where it is this kind of music that is actually quite good in Denmark. It was very nice it was a lot of fun to play.
Speaker 3:When we were out playing, we could play what the hell? I don't have that. You can't do that now.
Speaker 2:There was a period where Uncle Bunker who I think was Because at first he was very good at it there is music and stuff to play and he was a good match for the radio and it was like all the big work that we made and Krede has made. And. Tröst has made. It was like that, and then it all went together, and then Uncle Bunker was just Not mainstream Because it was not, but it was almost it was actually fun, because I met people at home who commented that it was what.
Speaker 3:I made. That stood out for them. But it's interesting that in that little bit around where we sit and send it, like the big Macs have done, and the big media programs that have been from the evening, from electronic music, have been what do we call them? It's those programs, brains, that show what you are in. What kind of Brains and programs are there?
Speaker 3:Yes, that's what you have to say, and I just want to say we did it ourselves for own money. They didn't get it. And when they closed Uncle Bunker on the street, they said we would like to put something in the middle of there instead of working with it and building it as a brand.
Speaker 2:What do you think we have made?
Speaker 3:Uncle Bunker was a gigantic brand it was one thing.
Speaker 2:Another thing was that I don't know if there can be any musical things like popping up, having a leg and taking things, but I don't think the last few years have had enough to be a slump with the Frida after, without signing any of the awards, that there have been some really good efforts.
Speaker 3:But I don't think we have any similarities with that, but it's also because that we have been trying to screw more and more on the goal group. That they want to have it. It gets very young.
Speaker 1:And I can't. I mean I can't, but it's not because I hear.
Speaker 3:I mean I would say do you know which channel I hear the most? No, it's a Gata, it's Petra, it's a Gata, it's Swedish, it's your street. It's really rough and hardcore urban hip-hop, right I don't hear anything.
Speaker 2:I hear the track.
Speaker 3:But it's because I can't either hear the beat and then I hear the sounds. I can't hear anything. So I hear the Swedish channel because there is a trust in something that's not very well known.
Speaker 2:there's not much known about it, but I have to say I don't know what it is, but I don't hear anything. You have Uncle Bunker himself. To the end you give up a lot of chances. In Uncle Bunker you are pregnant and in Basel, and in all this we learn better and better. And in our what was it? Utile fire, but at least some of you fire. We want to talk about opening a bar at the time, and it ends with doing it in 2013.
Speaker 3:It was really fun.
Speaker 2:It was really fun and a big opening for Puggerjaj to come to Copenhagen for the first time, where you are good at introducing a lot of people we don't know. We know a lot of people too, but it was a great start for us and a fantastic time. And I still get asked why I don't have a bar anymore.
Speaker 3:I still don't think so. It's a bit of a hell, but it has a bit of a different kind of locality, a different kind of I don't have a sound.
Speaker 2:I think it was a time of hatred. Yes, it was those who were three years old.
Speaker 3:If you tell me I should be a bar owner now or a club owner, I would be angry.
Speaker 2:I would also say there are some things happening. You started a hard beat and at the same time, we have a big set. I almost got a cramp and that will press you hard. Yes, but completely different when the music doesn't fill you up.
Speaker 3:No, but you can say that period. When I talk about stress now, it's interesting. It's often when one's life changes. You get a laugh in the period of life. I was half a year old. At home we had a bar and I had hard beats. They still didn't get enough money to make hard beats.
Speaker 3:So, I still played a big commercial job every weekend In those five or six months I played every weekend with a guy on the back. I was often out of the bar and then came back Exactly and suddenly it happened to me that I was swimming 24 hours a day. It was so extreme. It's been so many years. How did it go.
Speaker 3:I never think about it with that kind of stress, but I still get a lot of money. When it gets too much money, I get too many donations in my body. But I've had some ways to handle it and I think I've learned myself to know that my brain is different and that my nervous system is a bit different and I work very hard with these things. I also have the habit of keeping it free, and when I've burned my brain for 8-14-16 pieces a day, I've had to use it for some peace and that's something you could easily say I didn't get during that period.
Speaker 2:There was no peace and it was driving on the highest level, so we were really tired, especially on the bar. But you also had to start a new business. Since then you've had a child.
Speaker 3:You were also driving back and forth, we were driving back and forth and had a child too.
Speaker 2:There were many hard things in it, but now I've survived, so to speak, and you've been under a lot of stress. Yes, but it was a hard time for you to see it from outside.
Speaker 3:Yes, but I think my fault was that I wasn't ready to be punished for myself and others, and often that stress comes when you're bad at setting boundaries for yourself, and that's what I haven't been good at in my life.
Speaker 3:I've been better at setting boundaries for myself and others. I'm sorry, but I'm not going to blame anyone else. I'm going to blame myself and my children for that. That's the most important thing. That's the most important thing. So I think I can be, and that's my way of thinking. I think it's important that I'm privileged, that I've been given the opportunity to be so much more privileged and to get closer to who I am. So, yes, I actually had 5 years of stress after that and a lot of symptoms. I think it's very common when you've been under a lot of stress and often there's a half depression and you think it's true, and I was through it.
Speaker 3:But I didn't feel that way.
Speaker 2:I was just thinking about it. I was thinking about it Is the Sound for Copenhagen, where they're holding the record, still allowed to go down, or is it still allowed to go down?
Speaker 3:No, no, no, no. All the license agreements are out. I still have a lot to see and the vinyl boxes and stuff. But that's the end, because there were so many really really cool Danish artists who signed up for the company. Just go on and then you work seriously and fully with people.
Speaker 2:And there's.
Speaker 3:Kaija, who you've already known Exactly, or you let it be so. No, it was locked down While I was actually having hard beats and it was really about having a very strong, deformed Teodor Klauerson who drove it from me and he was a labor manager and controlled it. He got a job at Life Nation sitting there and when he stopped there was a hard beat and it was with two projects at the time. I couldn't both share and then we were in the Morg-Ride. So it's now.
Speaker 2:I think there was something very interesting and also a little song in Danish music. There was a label called Sound of Copenhagen. Can you remember how it started? Yes, it was.
Speaker 3:I was in the basement and DJ Dunkel was a little. What was the name of the group? It was a place where you could play music From Dunner to Sytecno and A-Set and stuff. So it was a roll. But it was at that time where you gave a fire. It was DJ's name and the producers were mixing it. So you always got a second stick in your hand. We did that a lot, we gave it all.
Speaker 3:He would play on radio, we would play it out of DJ, and then we realized that it was a water bottle. There is no place in Denmark that signs it.
Speaker 3:Or if you want to play it and get it out, you can play it more than it was just us at the club. We got it at CD and then we realized that we should create a record where we would give out compilations, where we collected both remixes and remixes of our own productions for the whole electronic underground. That was at that point and that was until the end of the year. It was a 10-12 year-long show and I think I did it 14 or 15 times. Yes, very cool. So you went to concerts and vinyl boxes.
Speaker 2:Yes, that's what I mean, and there are more things, because you have bunker on the one hand, you have the concerts in the concert halls and there was a scene around it, distortion and other things. But what I did, I think, is that we have a way of doing it. We had two people who worked for the electronic underground and then it was a big period 6 or 8 years ago, and it's just a challenge. I'm also old now, but it's a bit of a dead end. We miss it that there is one country that collects what I do. I hope there are some young people who do it or have done what I haven't done. Of course, it can be good. Our club has always been under the control of the city.
Speaker 3:I think there is a lot of that progress that has been taken over. There are more genres, so it's more in genre networks that you understand. Chef records are a good example. But there was a lot in the back of the country.
Speaker 3:I call it the Nørrebro sound, but they have been good. But I don't think there are any Intuitive lines that go so much on the different genres we do and it's one of the things that I have A huge love for the music. It was too blonde for Morten Brevarming and to see what they are most and had to be nice to the sound pop number I like that you have also been good at that.
Speaker 3:I listen to a lot of Danish pop. I think it's fantastic to be able to listen to Gullimund and Efterklang and I think there is an extreme value in that. I also try to have my children open, but when? I hear and be with them. I can listen to something else. I wish I could craft the game and have fun with that. I wish you all the best. So, and sniping Floyd right.
Speaker 2:Yes, yes, and you have to try it if you can. It's a bit of a coincidence. And have you still not played the piano at home? Yes, I have. So you buy a vinyl and listen to the guitars.
Speaker 3:Yes, I have decided that all my electronic DJ's I have. I have to play them now and I have to find out what I do. Yes, yes, and it's so strange, I have a vinyl that I often play. And it's so strange, it's powerful, but it's the Peter Gabriel Sofe.
Speaker 2:Yes, it's really strange. I think it's so good it is. There are some good ones. Mercy Street is so wild it's always wild, but the duet is about Dunk it up, alicate Bust. Yes.
Speaker 3:Mercy Street, dunk it up and then Red Rain.
Speaker 2:But Mercy Street in the middle, it's so, it's so relaxing, it's the record where there is a lot of cameras on, just like some schools Exactly, and it's released in 1986. I remember.
Speaker 3:I was in the back of the beach and played football with my big brother. In my case, when I came home with him. It's not a photo album. No, I can remember that.
Speaker 2:No, I can remember I bought it in Amsterdam. I had a tour with the elementary school yes, they have seen it or a school work. It's so crazy that it's not released in 1986. I think I had a girlfriend who came with me on a tour around Amsterdam.
Speaker 3:I bought it, but that's interesting, I can live in music. I had a conversation with a good person about this, with memories. Yes. And then I tell the children that we also connect a lot of our memories to something. A photo, yes, High-sensitivity In the middle of music. It's also in me, yes, and I can remember in my school. I remember the mood sitting on the front row with the Sony Walkman, the Orange yes and hearing the final cut Not a final cut in the frequencies, yes, or in the teaching.
Speaker 2:Yes, as you can see, yes, but I can remember.
Speaker 3:There are some negative effects in my life which I can remember from late on a stage, or the sound or the mood. When I press the button on the floor it's very tactile and also very on the sound.
Speaker 2:Yes, but it's wild enough. I have all my memories from when people tell me I know when the scene came, or a second, because it felt so much for me. Yes, so it made sense that the music is still there After a period on what 10, 15, 20 years from the age of 11, used time on music. Yes, did you think it would come back? Did you think it would come back? Did you think you would play some scenes? Did you think you would make radio again? You have a fantastic voice for radio and you have, I think, a fantastic quality level of music when you start playing. Is there a radio that you choose music for? Is it completely?
Speaker 3:dead, or but for now. I don't think you should ever say I have never been a singer. I shouldn't be 10 years old, I could be sitting in a small beach chair under a palm tree and holding my own coffee shop with a vinyl that is standing there. I don't think it is anything right now, but I say no to DJ jobs. I often ask come and play our songs. I can remember the punk and the punk.
Speaker 3:I shouldn't be a responsible person and I should be a party right now it's pressing me and I never know what to play, so I don't have the full media pop.
Speaker 2:You can still play. We have played together at the local. You can still play. Well, yes, but I don't know what to play I should be a new commercial.
Speaker 3:People have come to me to dance to I don't know I know once, but your music is still good, do you? Know. No, not me actually. No, no, no.
Speaker 2:But I don't play commercial jobs.
Speaker 3:I do it in many years actually. And that's where my career was before the music class 2. Yes, it was when I became a big commercial name that all the jobs I got were booked to come by myself. Yes. And that's something else that gave me no joy.
Speaker 3:No, you do it because you have good money, and that's something else, but it's pressure that you have to stand all the time and get to know the next number that's going to make people get on their toes, and it's not just music. You think this is what I've found. It's nice now I'm happy to put it on, but it's basically just when it's a remix of George Michael and it's with you, and then it's something they know they can sing along and then it's something they themselves want. So it's not. They are, of course, red-red how you built it up, but it's about not me and myself and my musical taste in the last few years as a DJ.
Speaker 2:No, and it was for all our jobs, it was just work.
Speaker 3:Yes, it was just work. Where the passion? Like, filled it out yes, and then it became I was so lucky and you, we have been extremely lucky in our DJ career.
Speaker 2:it has actually paid off well To start with, where it was like I got a burger to play a little coffee and it became a great party and now great people are eating and drinking all the time Exactly.
Speaker 3:Thank you, but we have been really lucky. Yes, so when you go out and play two hours of work, it has been difficult for me in the middle of the period where I was out and playing then, it was like, okay, it's easy money now. Yes, but it wasn't because you no.
Speaker 2:I think it was the hardest job.
Speaker 3:Oh yes, and I got stressed just as soon as you know. Ten days to go out and play. Yes, then I got a bad one.
Speaker 2:Yes Then it's bad money, right? Yes, it's the first thing I've learned, and I say no yes. It takes some time.
Speaker 3:Yes, it takes time because when people are hanging out and say, Can you? No, I can't have you playing with me.
Speaker 2:I have to stick it out because your birthday is the last one. No, it was just because there was a sick child.
Speaker 3:Yes, then I heard the sound.
Speaker 2:Yes, it was fun. I have played together with you where we were going to play some time and then I remember, I remember when people were playing, and then I mean those two hours we were going to play. They played with me because everyone was going to have a picture with me instead of them.
Speaker 1:Then you played Manita? Yes, it was, I can remember, if you, understood, it was Manita.
Speaker 3:I remember playing Manita and I was so happy.
Speaker 2:Yes it was there. It must have been very exciting at the same time that there were so many people sitting on you, I think.
Speaker 3:It was there I had at the time. I think in the middle of the year or two years, was there a young man who had been playing all my jobs right after I played them. What it's fucking weird and it has been a while. Yes, I had also played. At the time. It had been 13, 14, or something. There was someone who called me every day, every month, every day. I didn't say anything to anyone, I mean I was the only stalker. Yes, I was the only stalker. I was the only stalker.
Speaker 2:All my friends I knew were always willing to be with you. Then I never said that I've kept it back because you shouldn't know that you don't want me to be involved. I will always see you all the time. No, that's not a good question. No, you've always been someone who also because you've always been a bit of a stranger, have you. So you've always been good and good at playing in both clubs. That also means a lot of things.
Speaker 3:Yes, I've almost been the best for the more maned back because there are. Now I say something that's extremely generalising. Yes, something that I've been struggling with because of the way my brain works. I'm pretty bad at small talk. I can actually get pretty bad at it and get away, and if there's any woman, that's good detail. It's some kind of receptionist-like mood. That's fundamental. There's fucking just the same thing.
Speaker 2:You don't want me to be involved in that kind of stupid thing now? Not really. I know just as many men as you do. Yes, you're right.
Speaker 3:But I've had it easier to get a political opinion or to talk about things that interest me, which maybe is a bit some other kind of interest, I don't know.
Speaker 2:So that's fair enough.
Speaker 3:And I also meet a lot of men who can do small talk. That's a bit of a disadvantage, but I think it's more of a receptionist-like talk. I'm really afraid of that.
Speaker 2:I should have gone for it myself, I know what to say no you can be quiet.
Speaker 3:I'll be back. I'd love to go home. I'd love to go home and music is always bad and I'm ashamed of myself. The whole Triglas wine to be able to be in the right place.
Speaker 2:How is it when you go out once in a while? How do you get so abstract from DJs and the music and stuff? No, that's why.
Speaker 3:I go to the pub and play in the pub. Yes, you play there. No, I also have a tube box. There's something in Denmark. You got the water I love Jormonsen so there's nothing there.
Speaker 2:No, I think.
Speaker 3:I'll go. I notice that if I'm in a restaurant where there's a good soundtrack.
Speaker 2:I get a lot of thoughts.
Speaker 3:I remember two years ago, when I was eating stepple-levi when Buda Budski Budutski have made.
Speaker 2:At that point I don't know what to do.
Speaker 3:I'm so happy again. I'm so familiar with the mood. It was a great atmosphere, a great life and it makes it something for me to experience in a restaurant that there's thoughts about it. I've also been to places where there's really bad music and where I think it's a bit of a challenge, so I can't agree with that.
Speaker 3:I would say that being in foreign hotels is a must for Soho House, as we've also been in Copenhagen without a hotel. But when I'm in Soho House abroad there's always a lot of music. They go to the music of the day. It's more clubbed than I might have expected. In Denmark you have it when you're in Bitsa and you're abroad where you're warm.
Speaker 2:Yes, it helps a lot.
Speaker 3:There's music in the background. It's new and I'm really happy about it, and it's also because I've been more and more into African music and I'm more and more into the world and I think it's really nice. My biggest thing is not just about Africa, but my biggest pop artist is Noura Khourang-Beng, whose name I listen to the most. It's quite commercial.
Speaker 2:Yes, it's a blast. The last album was fantastic.
Speaker 3:It was a new single and I got it good. I'm jealous of it and I don't think it's that much of a blessing in Denmark. You don't get it at all.
Speaker 2:You're not interested in different things. You get older, you get older, and the longer you get older, it's my opinion, because sometimes I can feel that I want to buy this and there's not a lot of people who think it's interesting. We're still in a small town or a small country even though it's the most fantastic place to live. So is it a small country music wise? Yes, it is.
Speaker 3:It's hard to gather a lot of people and a lot of male genres in Denmark. That's always been the challenge. I searched for a lot of people in New York in my twenties and I was so happy. But then I found out that they played a lot of keggy with a little gag and I was also a little tired of that. But for me it's the South Pole and I think it can be music.
Speaker 2:But it's also something when you're gone, there's a different voice in one's head when there's no red carpet and there's no daily whispers.
Speaker 3:Yes, but I've gathered you down to the bottom and some of the good people. When you play or when Buddha plays, I'm also happy and relaxed and that's music for me. It's relaxed with the navel system. It's basically navel medicine for me to listen to music, could you?
Speaker 2:think of any stress and could you keep?
Speaker 3:out of it. Yes, I can always keep out of it, but there's no doubt that music has filled more again the last few years. I moved back to my house a few years ago and the last few summers all my neighbors registered.
Speaker 2:I thought you were going to come back again.
Speaker 3:You know, the sea doors are open and there's taste on the level I screw up with it for a reason and it gives me energy and, as you said in the intro, it's in the middle of the hummering.
Speaker 2:Very, very much. It's in the middle of the hummering completely, and I just thought I was already there a few years ago or a year ago. It was a big healing process for me to use the music. I was just thinking about whether you could use it or it's just been so long since you could never hear music.
Speaker 3:Yes, that's good, but it's been much more back to the melancholy, so it sings a songwriting into the ears, into the range. I can enjoy it completely, dark and dark, and that gives me a lot of energy.
Speaker 2:Yes, that's what it does to me too to melancholy music. I can also enjoy good pop music, but how do you use the music you say there's nothing to work on? Is it only when you come home in the weekend that you play music?
Speaker 3:Yes, if there's no one watching TV, then there's always music at home.
Speaker 3:And we have almost every day. When they're at my house they dance all year round. They have both Spotify and set everything up. That's my only problem. The week I have kids. I can't afford to put a number on them Because Sally, my youngest, is a band member with the music team and that's just what she hears. But I'd like her to have a hold on to it so she can just sit there. It's a bit more of a luxury to talk about your own playlist and listen to it. She finds some songs she plays a lot of times, like Grover. If I say, no, that's not right for you, no, that's not right for me, because she hasn't found it herself.
Speaker 2:No, it's with that one.
Speaker 3:But no, the music feels very much in my house and when I'm alone or cooking.
Speaker 2:I hear a lot of music. Yes, I do, and you cook a lot of food.
Speaker 3:Yes, I do. I eat and cook a lot of food here.
Speaker 2:It's just fun for me to hear it. When I think back, we still see each other, but it's rare, or maybe not. As time goes by, I just think that there's a lot of people there to go back. All the time we've had together, there's been music, music, music. We've had a lot of other things together, but it's just fun for me to hear that somewhere else. You're just a complete different place today.
Speaker 3:Yes, I've used. Now I'm the one who's listening to Spotify when I'm not listening to vanilla. It's like my two places to put something on that. I still don't have that, so I'm going to be difficult to deal with the latter little Spotify algorithms that I'm pissed at. I've been difficult to find the good tracks. The algorithms are just screwing up so much to get it popular and commercial. So I've been difficult to, and I'm still not the only week, the only weekend. There's no week where I don't have to deal with new music.
Speaker 2:No, still not.
Speaker 3:I've just been difficult to find because I could go down in some small vinyl shops. So I've been to Martin, cannes or something and bought some vinyl. But I don't do that because it's not my primary output. So I'm just sitting on the Lurte app and trying to find new good music for the genres I like. It's not so easy.
Speaker 2:I also use it at home, but I enjoy it a lot. But I've made a playlist myself with 160 hours of music.
Speaker 3:I like it. I'm going to name it.
Speaker 2:I actually had an open one and it sounded a little bit like a toss, but there were too many that I love spreading music, so it's a little bit of a double-sided.
Speaker 3:But there were too many that I used to find, even though they were available.
Speaker 2:I can spread it well and it's cool if you hear about it, but I'm just curious about how it sounds.
Speaker 3:Copy-paste. People are using it, so it's a good job.
Speaker 2:I heard that you played five or six songs that I knew were taken from that list. It sounds a little you understand. As if I had found something. It's not something I do. If you ask me about the song, you always get it there. If you can't find it, you always get it in your company.
Speaker 3:But if you use it for so many hours to find music and it's also the DNA of your identity as a DJ you don't find it as a copy-paste. It's just a little bit of a bummer.
Speaker 2:I could have understood if you had taken one or two songs, but you know, the same evening, when I heard five songs in three one day, I thought Okay that's Was it me. No, it wasn't you. I don't know if you played five songs last time you were here.
Speaker 3:No, I played it the same number twice. Yes, you did, it was five songs as well. Yes, but it's a lie that I was completely. Anyway, what happened between the two songs that I got stressed? I can't remember, yes, why I can't remember the money doesn't forgive me, can you? No, but I can't remember, if you forgive me.
Speaker 2:No, there was no one, but that's what you were worried about.
Speaker 3:Yes, and that's what I was worried about. No, I have a hard time with your situations if you're in a bit of a festive mood, a bit of alcohol. So my concentration is bad.
Speaker 2:It's been bad since the stress.
Speaker 3:How did you get into concentration together with the stress? My concentration is generally bad. Yes, that's what you have to give me.
Speaker 2:That's what you have to give me. No, I don't know. I think I've never thought about it. I've never thought that you were so tired and that you were so, or at least very tired, because we were very close. So I don't really think about you as a I mean from the outside, or something like that. I don't think about it. But I think it's good that I didn't have such a hard time, even if I had.
Speaker 3:Yes, but I think I had been too tired for a long time. I mean it wasn't good, but it's a bit. If it's fun, I say yes, but I haven't done that for a long time.
Speaker 2:Yes, it's just that I say have you gotten better at saying no and say no Absolutely yes?
Speaker 3:Yes, I spend a lot of time thinking. I don't think so.
Speaker 2:And after the stress? Or is it like that in the painting? I think it's both.
Speaker 3:I'm also. I'm upset. I was born in 1946, I'm a little sad. But no, I think there are some different things that give a lesson, and that means I only have my child for a while I'm 7-7, it also makes you think differently about your time. I'm very, I'm very busy in a way. I have to share my time a lot and I have to say no to many things that I have now. Now I've said no to so many things for so many years Now.
Speaker 2:I don't want to play anymore now. It's super narrow, that's nice, yes, yes, I've been over it.
Speaker 3:No I.
Speaker 2:I have it all the time. I can be good at sports, but I can also enjoy the scenario.
Speaker 3:Yes, but I have it all the time. I can't. I can go out and fill my cellar.
Speaker 2:I don't think there's anything. I also have a child that I've had half the time I can say the one of them at least for many years. But there was something I got really used to with him because when he was there I really should be there when I can see. Today, at least he can just go to his world. He's there every day. So there's also, I think there are some. It's not just bad things to have with your child for a week.
Speaker 3:I also think that both their parents and I have been better off in some ways because we're more in the same place when we're there.
Speaker 2:That's what I mean, but they're there every day, so, and I just need to know this, so, so they'll be there tomorrow.
Speaker 3:I think we have more responsibility as parents, because they don't want the other one until they have a good overhaul right? Yes, we have. They also have. I think when they come to their parents, who they have a really good relationship with, they know that I can do something else, like they ask questions afterwards. So we have some other conversations and one way or another to be together and one way or another to plan our lives, and so they're looking forward to coming to me and then they're looking forward to when they've been with me for a few days, to come to their parents and then again give them something else. I think it's pretty nice, so, but I'm more careful with my time because I think I can get along a bit with them, right.
Speaker 2:It can be good to understand.
Speaker 3:You also have to be careful with that, and then there are some other things that I think are so fantastic. I'm glad to know that you're also here with your children. Where is it now that my children are so big that I really can't screw up with them? To the concert, right?
Speaker 3:So the little thing we're not doing for the first time, only with me, I'm 14 days old and listen to Peele, a Danish artist who is really nice, really good at pop. So that's what she got, the Christmas song she's going to listen to. And I'm the only one in the Friday evening to come to the concert. I'm so happy. And the big one is also going to be with Høysen Syn to London's Cetale Swifts.
Speaker 2:I don't have to say that it's a feeling, so I just have to say it.
Speaker 3:She's going to be so happy and I can take a little more on Buemblis and Cetale Swifts. I'm very careful. It's the world's best music. She's coming to remember it. I can't remember that Peele, I can't remember it with.
Speaker 2:New England. It's like that and it sounds fantastic. It sounds like you're using more energy on children's music than on your own right.
Speaker 3:Yes, I think so too. I've chosen to play with them. For the first time in a very long time, I could clip a leather with them, because barefoot-dressers come and play with them, and that's what I have to be with.
Speaker 3:It's one of the most beautiful dresses I've ever had and they're so beautiful and they make a good look. It's going to be fun, but yes, it's a lot of what's going on there and finding music at home that can give air-conditioning or a comfortable nervous system or give concentration or joy, whatever music needs that day and it's really a lot of the responsibility to give it to my children those two things.
Speaker 2:The music has been used to the best of its kind and where you used your energy and time to spread the music to everyone else. And what can I say? It's just really fun to hear they really feel it. How you feel about it, I can feel a lot of things, but for me it would be difficult to say no to play with them or not to play with them. And I don't know, I might just have to be a DJ than you have been. You must use it for something else.
Speaker 3:I think so. I think I could find joy at some point to stand me down in Brinland just for fun after the day, with a stroke of heart on my shoulder, playing some lovely venues. I remember when I saw him play for the first time I was a nice DJ. I saw him in New York on the rooftop something in Brooklyn to a barbeque and I went to say hi to him because he was fucking wild.
Speaker 3:And I said I want to get in while you mix it. He stood there with his plate. No, I don't mix it. I wanted to be a DJ. If I had a warm place I would play. It would be the most beautiful warm, organic, without mixing and just making a barbeque and drinking. It wouldn't be a waste. It's not that warm. It's not that much of a shame, there's not that many strokes.
Speaker 2:It's true, it's something I love. It's more and more. I would say.
Speaker 3:I think you've been right and you have always been more a DJ than me, and working with music was a coincidence for me, because I love music the way I do and I loved being with family. I mean, I have that role but I am more a family, I am more a DJ and that's the way of communication I have always been. I can take many forms, it can look at many ways and right now it's, and it's actually what you do right now.
Speaker 3:I'm not sure about that, but I can like to communicate and create communication between people. I can also like to fight for others than myself. And that's what I did for the upcoming and for the underground and I did that for artistic culture and music world in general. I did that for the workshops and for women who couldn't go to the children. I did that for all the possible leaders when it really didn't matter. To me, that's a huge privilege.
Speaker 2:You've always been a good leader and Kel always said that you should be the cultural minister. Yes, I do, that's probably not a bad idea.
Speaker 3:I don't know if I should be treated as a handball decolling. I wouldn't play handball decolling. I wouldn't play it, I just said it.
Speaker 2:Just like last time, I asked everyone if there should be music for your funeral. It was a frugal funeral for Kel.
Speaker 3:Yes, it was terrible, but it was music.
Speaker 2:You know what it should be you or the children should decide, or what is it?
Speaker 3:I think I should decide. I've written a book that I plan to write long time before.
Speaker 2:I die. My father was born in 1988.
Speaker 3:He gave us a diary and the music. The music, but I've often given it as a gift. I was born in Bødlopper. I've been a live musician. I was surprised when someone came to play a song. Yes, for my father's funeral. I was in the school's studio at Piano and Contrabass. Very nice, I've had from where we were in the school's studio. I was just given the chance to play my oldest violin. I can enjoy it. If I'm to be married one day, I'll be born in Bødlopper. Yes.
Speaker 3:I've now become a big fan of it After I've become a little older and I've been watching him live last year I'll be sure to have music for all the great events in my life, whether it's violin, or confirmation or funeral. It's the most important thing for me.
Speaker 2:It's something more than that. Yes, what number?
Speaker 3:do you think? To funeral. I'd say it's comfortable or wishy-wishy.
Speaker 2:No, it's a little bit of a drawback. Last time Lars Hjortsoy said something funny. He thought it was jazz, because people could say that he had a little better than he did or he had a better place than they were. I'm playing trap, exactly.
Speaker 3:No, I think it's a joy that we go through different periods in the relationship that you said. We've become older and maybe we're a little more obscure, or world or something. I think I'm going to be a little older than I am today. Are there things that have filled me up? Yes, I've had 10 years for myself, and it's money too, but let's see, it's also been six hours of wandering in all that's going on.
Speaker 2:I don't think so it's probably because you're coming to me.
Speaker 3:We're going through six hours of wandering.
Speaker 2:It takes four hours to say I love you.
Speaker 3:It's very.
Speaker 2:German. I don't think it's going to happen. Leigh, thank you so much for wanting to be with us. Of course, let the music continue to be your most trusted leader. Sarah, do you want to hear good music and good news in the real world? Can you find a museum local, right under the Nightclub Museum in二 Könhelmhausen in Berlin?
