Anasa

Hirdetés
How long have you been performing together?
Almost 1 year, since November 2014.Anasa is the mainfloor sideproject of Side Liner from Greece & Zero Cult from Israel.  Both Side Liner and Zero Cult are active in ambient chill scene since 2004. In 2014, we decided to join our forces and create a 4/4 psyprogressive band and not only together and explore the more uptempo scene.

How would you describe your style?
We still explore our style from track to track, generating our own trademark style, which combines aggressiveness, harmonies and grooves.

How would you define your genre? What features make your music unmistakeably typical ANASA style?
Thick beats and energetic melodies. These fine dance-floor productions contain the perfect amount of progressive pressure to keep the body excited and sweaty, but always with that extra bit of fine musical intelligence that only Anasa holds the secret to.

Who are your music idols?
Pink Floyd, J.M.Jarre, D-Nox & Beckers, Prodigy.
From where do you gain inspiration for your music?
Music production is our anti-stress pill and life nowadays gives you lot of stress. We convert life moments into vibes.

Who are your fans? Can they be categorized in any way?
We know them better from time to time but we couldn’t say that can easily be described in a specific category. They are coming from different backgrounds not just one or two genres and a part from our solo ambient projects as Side Liner & Zero Cult.
Could you please talk about these projects in more detail?
At the end of 2003, Nick Miamis (aka Side Liner) and label manager of Unicorn Music (trance label) those days received a different promo than usual, a chill out cd promo from Emil Ilyayev (aka Zero Cult).

Zero Cult’s music was so beautiful and chilling that Nick Miamis pinched other label trance artists to work on a chill track, as he did, too under Side Liner project and they released the first compilation “Chill On Ice“, which issued 2 times in CD and sold out fast. That promo and first release also was the big bang for Cosmicleaf Records imprint.

Now both hold numerous releases in compilations and a lot EPs and full albums. After almost 10 years of music production and gigs around with their solo projects, they decided to join forces and explore as dance duo their production skills, under ANASA project.

Could you please tell me about your working process?

Any of both write the main idea and groove and sent it to other for feedback. when we reach a point that both we are happy with, we decide who will continue the expansion of idea, depending the mood,the time and the vision of each one in this specific moment. In the meantime, we exchange feedbacks and new sound layers to shape more the final result and checking the flow and the mix.

May I ask Where does your nickname “Anasa” come from?

“Anasa” in Greek means breathing.

I do not want to give any words into your mouth, but does this suggest that for you music is just as essential, indispensable, necessary, etc. like breath and breathing for any being on Earth?

Exactly, this has a vital meaning, like breathing. Using sounds to give life, when you dance you feel alive! And with “Anasa” we want to make people dance and feel alive.

If you were not a musician, what would you do or be ?

People, who would be  interested to become musicians.

As a conclusion of the interview, could you please share the dates of the upcoming concerts?

We will debut our album on 07 November in Athens. Here is the event link:
