Welcome back to our '10 For Tuesdays' feature, this week we have Dutch producer Booddha going under the spotlight. So lets get straight into it.
When
did you start making music and what was it that led you to start?
I think it was about
4 years ago, I was already really deep into electronic music and I wanted to
give it a try for myself. I started reading massive amount of tutorials and
made full albums to try everything out.
What
software do you use to make music?
Well, friends laugh at me for using it
but I started using FL Studio and I still use it. I am not ashamed of it haha. Just as long as you don’t call it “Fruity Loops”
What
one piece of software/hardware could you not live without?
Pff, I guess my massive, vintage,
electronic organ. I don’t use it a lot in tracks but its very handy if you got
a melody in your head and you want to play it immediately.
Who are your main influences both
producers and artists?
I’ve got a lot of influences but the biggest are Koreless, Joy Orbison, Disclosure, James Blake, Sepalcure, Bondax, Supertramp and SBTRKT.

Who would be your favourite artist to
collaborate with?
I think Disclosure, they really opened my ears and they are really original.

How do you think the Internet has helped
musicians?
The internet allows musicians to build up their ‘Hype’ so to speak. Blogs take a really big role in it. People retweet, like, share and read like madmen nowadays.

What advice would you give to an up and
coming producer/artist from your own experiences?
Kinda cheesy but just believe in it. If you are not secure about your work, people won’t really like it either.

If you were stuck on a desert island,
which other artist would you want to be stuck with?
Souljaboy, so I can laugh my ass off all day.

What artists in the chart are you
impressed with at the moment?
Bondax are really killing it at the moment, there are also a lot of soundcloud mates who are doing great things like REKchampa, Nifkin, Tony Devotion, Morning High and Casset.
