Read the gabryella.exe Interview below and share it on social media.
Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
My name is gabryella.exe, and I am a DJ, artist, and visionary from Austin, TX. These last few years my endeavors primarily focused on working in art gallery spaces and "working in the background", but I want to begin new projects that include art and sound as primary components of my work.
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
I have found a lot of inspiration lately listening to Arca, Kamixlo, Giles Corey, Holly Herndon, Burial, and Paula Temple. I really enjoy music that is as emotional as it is intense and impactful, and I want to make music and music mixes that replicate their drive and intensity. Listening to any of Paula Temple's Berghain sets feel like a punch in the gut, but yet you can feel the somber drone melodies softly enter your mind, and can visualize what that night must have been like. DJing is half preparation and execution, but also half knowing how to facilitate an experience that people will never forget.
What´s new right now?
I am currently working on a project for my job where I am essentially spearheading music production-based curriculum in addition to our STEM-based lesson plans.
