Interview: Sebastien Leger at Hello Techno

December 12, 2011 By BPMLife

French born and brewed Funky Tech House guru, Sebastien Leger graced South African shores this past week-end, treating local fans to some clubbing goodness and some of that good tech tunage. We had a chat with him at the HELLO TECHNO Party just before his Live set at Trinity Night Club on Friday night…

What have you experienced since landing in SA?

Mountains, the sea shore and the Upper east side hotel. I have just been relaxing since I flew in yesterday and this is a very beautiful city.

What does the world not yet know about the Dance scene in France?

Probably that there is no real Dance scene in France. That is why I have moved to Amsterdam and is where I live now.

What prompted your visit to SA?

A friend of mine told me that Deep House was really big here a few years back and for that I was very curious to come check it out. Then I got offered a few gigs here so I took the opportunity.

sebastien-leger-3Things you never fly without?

Ear plugs and a sleeping mask!

When you first started Mistakes Music, what aims did you set out for it and were they reached?

I would say that we are almost there, it’s a slow process but it’s moving. The one plus and aim that we have reached and maintained is 100% sole control over our music and the types of productions we pump out. For me this is the first and foremost important thing and I would like to keep it this way.

Aside from the Daft Punk remix ‘Around the World’ what is one of your more recent other favourite remix?

Yes, it definitely is a track by Format B titled ‘Dog Tag’, that’s my favourite.

Format:B – Dog Tag (Sébastien Léger remix) – Formatik Records by sebastienleger

While you are playing a set, what are some of the things that can take your set from good to great?

You know, it’s always the crowd that make a good party. I could be all excited jumping up and down but if they are doing it too and cheering it just makes the whole party that much better!
