The long-awaited new Kitsun\u00e9 Tabloid<\/a> compilation selected and mixed by The Twelves<\/a> is finally being released on August 29th (and you can already buy it on our webstore) !<\/p>\n

Get to know the hot Brazilian duo better (their life in Rio, their music…) through this interview :<\/p>\n

What is life like in Brazil?<\/strong>
\nIt\u2019s great. It\u2019s home. We love traveling and playing shows, but it is always nice to touch down in Rio.<\/p>\n

Could have The Twelves come from another country than Brazil?<\/strong>
\nProbably yes\u2026 we see people doing similar things to us every now and then. We obviously draw a lot of influence from the music we grew up listening to and I think that comes across in the music we make today. So in that respect, I suppose that The Twelves had to come from Brazil to capture that Brazilian vibe.<\/p>\n

Would you consider going to live in another place? And where?<\/strong>
\nWe thought about it, maybe moving to London or Paris to be closer to the \u2018action\u2019 so to speak. But for the moment we are happy in Rio.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your favorite city in the world?<\/strong>
\nMost of the major cities are as you\u2019d expect them to be: fun and
\nexciting \u2014 just like London, New York, Paris etc. It\u2019s hard to pick a favourite one because when we visit it\u2019s usually for a day or so and we don\u2019t get to see much outside the airport, hotel and the club we are playing at. We do like to spend time in London though, so it could be the one.<\/p>\n

What are the clubs like in Brazil? Do you dj much there? Is it very different deejaying in Brazil and in Europe?<\/strong>
\nWe have started to play more shows in Brazil now, which is great. In the past we spent so much time in the studio or on tour elsewhere that we didn\u2019t really get a chance to play at home. The club vibe is very different to America or Europe \u2014 it\u2019s more of a social affair, whereas in Europe it is a harder party atmosphere. Both situations are great, you just have to be prepared.<\/p>\n

What did it mean to you being asked to do a Kitsun\u00e9 Tabloid mix?<\/strong>
\nIt was fantastic. Kitsun\u00e9 is one of those labels that almost everyone knows and loves, so it was a great honor to be asked to do a cd.
\nWe hope we brought a genuine Twelves feel to it, whilst still being true to the label ethos. There have been so many great releases and the fact that it\u2019s still going strong says to me that the label\u2019s well grounded and a force to be reckoned with. We love Kitsun\u00e9!<\/p>\n

What did you want to achieve with these mixes?<\/strong>
\nWe really wanted to give an idea of what a Twelves show is like, but at the same time we made sure it was a compilation for all occasions rather than a record you turn up loud when you get ready to go out. Of course you can do that too, but we really wanted you to feel like it could be listened to on an iPod, at work, at home or in the car. We also made sure that this project \u2014 the tracks we selected and their arrangements \u2014 represented us properly.<\/p>\n
