CIO D'OR

a mix (or a track) starts, from the beginning, with an idea in my mind. i like the possibility that it could take a person on a wave of predetermined feeling. i am affected by a range of producers (100% vinyl for mix tools) and life. i’m drawn to things that catch my emotions and the way i perceive things are, for certain, not always the same. i prefer warm, melancholic or endlessness feelings with an authentic character and deepness. i like to stay within one feeling when making a mix or a track. it´s a little bit like telling a story. sometimes a piece of material (that sounds very interesting to me) could be the beginning of an idea, too.

i build a mix (or a track) sometimes for many hours/days before i am happy with the end result. sometimes i miss a brick. i am always in evolution and movement. music is a “live study"!

i am not looking just for trends in music. for me, it is very important that i believe in a producer. that i can hear him. that he has something to say and to give and a way to involve the listener. i want to hear “soul” and “deepness” and “melancholy” and “trueness” on vinyl and in my own music productions and mixes. it can be a trend or it can be an old school pearl. i am just a filter of music and sounds.

my mixes and music have their own character because i have my own character. my music is just a snap shot of a moment in life. of how i feel and hear music. my vision for a crowd is to show them ideas from producers. i don’t play just for fun (even if i could). i want to give something. that is probably not always easy to understand and i know it. i think it is a big problem that so much of the media is always playing the same music. it doesn’t allow the ears of the consumers to progress.
