De toute l'équipe Valérie, c'est clairement mon préféré.
Non seulement c'est le meilleur (musicalement) mais en plus, à la dernière Valérie Party du Showcase, c'est lui qui avait les chaussures les plus adorables (une petite bateau blanche, fabuleux).
Et bien vois-tu, Russ Chimes est comme ses chaussures. Il apporte une humilité et une simplicité dont manquent cruellement certains artistes de la maison.
Il est malheureux de constater que de belles compositions soient écrasées par des personnalités pompeuses.
Russ Chimes a cette justesse. Il ne se mettra jamais plus en avant que ce qu'il produit et c'est ce qui rend des prestations gracieuses et des morceaux ravissants.

Of all the team Valérie, it's clearly my favorite.
Not only it is the best (musically) but moreover, in the last Valérie Party at the Showcase, he had the most adorable shoes (white boat shoes, fabulous).
And you see, Russ Chimes is just like his shoes. He brings a humility and a simplicity which certain artists of the house cruelly miss.
It's unfortunate to notice that beautiful compositions are crushed by pompous personalities.
Russ Chimes has this correctness. He will never put his face before his music and this is what makes graceful performances and charming songs.
1- You've been first on HypeM with the Frankmusik remix. What's the history of this song ?
I was approached by his record label to do the remix. The vocals on this track are great so it was a real pleasure to do. It turned out that Frankmusik was really pleased with the remix, so it was approved and sent out to the blogs!
2- What HypeM represents for you ?
I think it's a great resource for tracks, although I'm not sure how much weight being at the top of their chart actually holds. It seems that it can be quite easily manipulated.
3- Next release ?
Next release is currently in progress, I can't give away anymore than that, you'll find out in due course !
4- Next gig ?
My next gig will be a DJ set at the Proud Galleries in London on Sept 12th.
5- What's your slogan ?
Not sure I have a slogan, but my motive I guess is to make tracks with drama and feeling, that also make people want to dance !
6- The song you've been listenning the most those days ?
Recently I've been loving the Aston Shuffle Remix of Disko Suks by Tronik Youth
7- Best "souvenir" of the past year ?
Probably playing live shows at Valerie parties at Showcase, Paris and Cargo, London. The shows went off and the crowds were amazing! I've also just returned from an Australian tour was was a lot of fun.
