Enfnts Terribles

We’ve read that you were able to travel a lot as a kid with your parents. How did that inspire your music since you went to places with very different cultures?

The combination between classical music, which I loved to listen to a lot, and the world music my parents always brought with them … the agreement between that inspired my music. The way pop music is often structured—verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, chorus—and specific typical melodies, were not really present in my musical upbringing. That influenced my music and prevents me from thinking too much about boxes.

Music has been present in your whole life. Was it difficult to find your sound, or was it even easier?

I have never thought of that, to be honest. I don’t know if it’s necessarily because I’ve been making music for a long time, but it was quite logical for me what kind of music I wanted to make. I never really thought of the sound I wanted my music to have, but it just happened.

What’s the main emotion that inspired your upcoming debut album?

It’s about finding light and comfort, which is actually not the main focus of the album, but I would be happy if it does that to people. I hope the project can feel equally meaningful to some as it felt to me when I made it.

Is there something specific you want people to know before they listen to the project, or would you like people to listen without too much context?

I think the second one.

Why do you think that?

The beautiful thing about music is that it can touch you without any words. Personally, it’s one of the purest ways to get close to a person. The more context you give, the more it takes away from that experience.
