Read the Rodrigo Calazans / Mr. Calazans Interview below and share it on social media.
Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
My name is Rodrigo Calazans, I’m 22 Years old, DJ & Music Producer from Brazil. I’ve started in music production when i’m looking for change some “details” for tracks that I’ve heard, in a complain to make them more “detailed” than actually they was.
My career had started with some tracks just for fun, but It becomes seriously when I’ve heard some Progressive stuffs. It was when I was felt in love with melodic tracks.
But without any help, I’ve produced 2 Chilled out tracks to learn better how to make music (Without any musical theory or knowledge in any instruments too)…
After that, I’ve been studying by myself (and be helped with some friends that produces too);It has been coming a hard walking, and I’ve tried to start some different projects to different kinds of music as well. There are some:
Shotski (Big Room) –
(Holy Sh*t)
Spherous (Progressive Trance/Uplifting trance) –
(Garten Von Eden)
Tricklez (Psy Trance) –
(THAT’S A PRIVATE TRACK, SO ENJOY)
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
I’ve been Influenced a lot of time by different artists and different genres. When I’ve been producing Chillout my influences was Mr. Fijiwiji, Blackmill, Evocativ, Amoa Mass… After that, I’ve moved to progressive. That was maybe my most important influences to actually. Markus Hakala, Roald Velden, Musty, Shane Collins, Ma5haria, Talamanca, Puma Scorz and a lot of more artists.
My tastes becoming differents while time was passing, but I still loving them. Actually I do “Brazilian Bass” / Deep House and my influences are brazilian producers like Alex Senna, Dazzo, Liu, GenX, SSAM and a lot of others.
