Paul Rose aka the musician, DJ, and A&R known as Scuba talks to people of significance from the world of electronic music about their experiences, observations, and attempts to cultivate a life for themselves in the murky and sometimes treacherous waters of the music industry.
Releasing your own music can be liberating, but it also involves challenges. How keen are you on self-promotion? Well you better get used to it if you're self-releasing.
Steffi is a long running resident of Berghain/Panorama Bar, and an alumnus of their label, Ostgut Ton. For her forthcoming album, The Red Hunter, she has taken over those responsibilities with a new imprint called Candy Mountain.
We discuss all that at length, plus taking the opportunity to dig into her background in the Netherlands, what it means to be underground, the challenges of production, and the possible future paths of the dance scene.
This was a conversation I have been waiting for since we launched the pod, and it did not disappoint. Steffi is great and you will love this episode.
