I started writing ‘Wonder’ during a period of a strong change in my life and wanted it to fully represent who I am. We’ve only connected over my music but I know this will happen soon. I never imagined my music would grab Mall Grab’s attention. Matisa: Thank you very much! This EP means a lot to me as a producer.

However I have to say all my shows this summer have been great, and that goes out to everyone, the bookers, promoters, and artists, everyone was so special!ĮG: By the way, congratulations on your ‘Wonder’ EP! What can you tell us about the inspiration behind it? We’re definitely digging the old-school vibes. So these were my top three of the year, not to mention I have met so many great artists along the way. It’s an insane venue even for such a prestigious promoter. Playing at the Panorama Bar was beyond words, I left my soul in the booth, a truly magical experience, and I hope to come back and take it back with me! Also, Circoloco at Off Sonar was flawless. I remember the thrill and excitement of entering DC10 and the magic of the white island of Ibiza. All 3 gigs were very different but each was such a great experience, each still very visceral.

It has been the summer of ‘my first times’ first time at DC10, first time at Berghain, first time at Off Sonar. I have traveled and played all over Europe. This year was my first real year as a DJ, I am finally living my dream: my passion is now my job.ĮG: What was your summer like? Do you have any particular highlights? I am working on my next EP and I’m in a very positive moment in my life. Matisa: Hi EG, I am happy to be here, and thanks for having me on for a chat!
