INTERVIEW: German Producer Superior answers quick-fire questions on the best of 2015
Hot on the heels of a successful year, including superb collabos with REKS, Planet Asia, and Declaime, the German beatmaker chops it up with The New Beatmaker on hardware, software and more.
Favourite hardware: 'Maschine Studio; Nice controller, nice pads, nice features, 2 colour displays – nice to work with.'
Favourite software and / or sample pack: 'Maschine Software, because it perfectly matches with the Maschine Studio controller.'
Favourite freeware: 'If you ask me, the best freeware is Audacity. It’s a perfect tool to edit the waves.'
Favourite song: 'Of course, I have to choose my single „Superiority“ with Reks :-D'
Favourite music video: 'I really can’t choose one – there have been way too many. If I have to choose, it would be the live video of Oddisee & Good Company with Juju Rogers, Un vrai chantier à l’affranchi in Marseille. This had been the best concert for me this year.'
Favourite album: 'Petestrumentals 2“. Do I really have to say anything more about that?'
Favourite musician, producer or beatmaker: 'Oddisee and Pete Rock - Two geniuses'
Music based New Year resolution: 'The only conclusion I can make is: It really doesn’t matter with which tools you produce your music. At the end, it’s all about the result. So I will keep focusing on that.'
Amen to that. Many thanks Superior, here's to a great 2016 for you.
