A Friendly interview with A-Trak !

Hello, my name is A-Trak. I am a DJ, producer and label owner.

I am 28 years-old. I was born in Montreal, and my hometown is Montreal but now I live in New York and spend my holidays in places where I won’t be tempted to DJ.
Someday, I would like to know how to cook, but for now, I spend my days eating other people’s food.

If I was a young band in a little town of Ireland and trying to seduce Gildas in being featured in a Kitsune Compilation, I would call my band Japanese Fox and my first track would be called “Draw My Face On The Record Sleeve” and to seduce Masaya I would dress only in leather pants and fingerless gloves.

I first met Kitsuné at a Cazals concert in London.

If Kitsuné asked me to do a compilation, my top 5 songs would be:
Chromeo “Grow Up”
Chilly Gonzales “I Am Europe”
Duck Sauce “Barbra Streisand”
Siriusmo “The Plasterer Of Love”
Caribou “Sun”

My favorite writer is Cope2 the graffiti writer.
My favorite holiday destination is Corsica.
The biggest crowd I have ever seen in front of me for a performance was of 80 000 people.
My favorite Catherine Deneuve movie is… I don’t know French movies well enough.
The most horrible Madonna songs is “4 Minutes”
When I was a child, I dreamed of being a pediatrician.
The best thing about capitalism that it includes the word “pita”.
The addiction I should quit is emails.
My house looks like a hotel room.
My current project is starting my album.
I spent yesterday night at a “bal masqué” (masquerade ball).

A-Trak “Say Woah” is available on our webstore with original track and two remixes by Sinden & Boys Noize, buy it here
