Introduction of Electronica Music
Electronica is a broad term that encompasses a variety of electronic music genres, including electronic dance music (EDM), techno, house, trance, and many others. These genres are characterized by the use of electronic instruments and computer-based production techniques to create music that is often designed for dancing and listening in clubs and other party settings. Electronica music often features electronic beats and synthesizers, as well as other electronic sounds and effects, and can range from high-energy, upbeat tracks to more atmospheric, ambient compositions. Electronica has a wide and diverse following, and is a major influence on contemporary popular music.

Mazoulew Interview on Nagamag
.
Nagamag:
Which are the genres that describe your music style better?
Mazoulew:
My music has always floated across a few genres, I never really considered myself a 'Hip Hop' or 'Dance' producer for example as I found the idea of limiting yourself to a certain style or tempo of music rather limiting and constraining for creativity. My new record covers quite a lot of ground from downtempo/electronica all the way through to ambient/neo-classical works. I guess at the end of the day, I write what I feel at that specific moment and the result can be a lot of different feelings and emotions being conveyed.
Nagamag:
Few words about your musical background and career?
Mazoulew:
When I first got into music I was involved in the Hip Hop/ Drum and bass world, I used to collaborate with literally hundres of different artists and bands. I spent a lot of time engineering and co writing works for people before I really started to focus on my solo material
Nagamag:
Do you remember your first connection of love to music that was the right impact to be a music artist now?
Mazoulew:
I remember when I must have been no more then 10 years old, standing in a charity shop with two casettes in my hand
It was something like Now 50 I think and in the other hand 'The Score' by the fugees. I didnt know anything about either record but I bought 'the score' for something crazy like £1.5 and that was it for me, I played that tape over and over till it wore out and snapped. I obviously went and bought another copy on CD after that but yeah that record changed my life really and opened my mind to different a different sound and different ideas.
Nagamag:
Can you tell us a little bit more about the 'Movements EP'
Mazoulew:
So yeah, this record is quite special to me as I really felt like I had the possibility to focus myself and refine a lot of ideas that I had been thinking about in recent years. I wanted, as I say to cover a lot of ground and explore ideas that I am not really hearing other people put together at the moment. I wanted to show there is a way you can combine such moods as cinmeatic, orchestral arrangments with dance floor electronica. It could be very easy to make a project like this and for each of the individual tracks to sound disconnected from one another. The challenge is to imprint enough of your sonic character and style into the sound to give continuity across the tracks regardless of what genre/style they are written in
Nagamag:
Many artists listen to genres that they are not producing music for. Which track is your favorite that is NOT similar to yours?
Mazoulew:
Burial "Ghost Hardware"
Nagamag:
Of Course Nagamag would love to listen also which is the track from a similar artist you admire?
Mazoulew:
Rival Consoles "Recovery"
Blooy Interview on Nagamag
.
Nagamag:
Which are the genres that describe your music style better?
Blooy:
Blooy's sound is its own unique flavor of chillout that’s fueled by dreamy electronics, lo-fi hip-hop beats, drama-filled instrumentation and melancholic soundscapes.
Nagamag:
Few words about your musical background and career?
Blooy:
In the nineties I was inspired by the emerging trend of house music and started working together with producer and composer Dorian Broekhuyse, with whom I collaborated on several dance projects.
In the beginning of this millennium our musical style evolved to chillout music. Dorian and I launched our nu-classical project “Bardo State” in 2008, especially known from the internationally acclaimed song “Sospiro” (album “Mariposa”). Several Bardo State songs were licensed to well-known samplers such as Buddha-Bar and Supperclub. The track "Kosovo" was the soundtrack of the Hollywood film Jekyll and Hyde.
Nagamag:
Do you remember your first connection of love to music that was the right impact to be a music artist now?
Blooy:
I'm the son of Jan Wijn, a famous Dutch concert pianist. Raised on musical influences such as Chopin, Ravel and Saint-Saëns, I became interested in experimental jazz throughout my teenage years and I started playing drums. In my late teens, I also started singing and playing keyboard in the new wave band The Primrose Path. The often dark and gloomy sound of new wave music has continued to inspire me throughout my musical career.
Nagamag:
What exactly inspired you to start with Blooy?
Blooy:
I started working on my solo project “Blooy” during the Corona period. Inspired by the imperfection of lo-fi music, I combined chillout with jazz and classical influences, sometimes accompanied by spoken word. As the strongest form of art, I use Blooy’s music to express myself and always try to embellish my compositions with layers of heartfelt emotions.
Nagamag:
What are your musical plans for the future?
Blooy:
During 2021 I will be releasing my first two Blooy EP's on the label Sine Music and I'm planning to release my first album by the beginning of 2022.
Nagamag:
Many artists listen to genres that they are not producing music for. Which track is your favorite that is NOT similar to yours?
Blooy:
Thomas Newman "Revolutionary Road (End Title)"
Nagamag:
Of Course Nagamag would love to listen also which is the track from a similar artist you admire?
Blooy:
