E’ sempre durante il Press Day di Spinnin’ Records, dove abbiamo avuto la possibilità di intervistare artisti come Dannic, EDX, Asco e molti altri ancora, che abbiamo avuto la possibilità di scambiare una veloce chiacchierata con la giovane promessa olandese di Spinnin’ Records/Spinnin’ Next: Sophie Francis.
Sophie è una giovane dj/producer olandese di 19 anni che, nell’ultimo anno ha saputo dimostrare il suo talento al grande pubblico, fino a conquistare la famosa label dance Spinnin’ Records.
Subito abbiamo avuto l’impressione di parlare con una ragazza molto simpatica e molto disponibile, concedendo a youBEAT una breve intervista in cui ci ha raccontato come ha iniziato il suo percorso e alcuni degli importanti traguardi raggiunti in questo breve periodo (molti dei quali durante l’ultimo anno).

ENG:
Hi Sophie! This year youʼve opened the Spinnin Session stage during the last edition of Tomorrowland. What did you feel about this experience?
Sophie Francis) It was such a great experience. It was so crazy and the crowd was so energetic.
I knew a lot of people and a received a lot of support from the artists.
I think It’s gorgeous to be known by the people and see how the crowd reacts on your music and on what are you doing.
During the last year youʼve signed with Spinnin. Is it an important step for a young artist like you?
SF) It was definitely an absolute step.
Today everyone want to sign with Spinnin’ and I think It’s a very important step in the career of a young artist.
I want to ask how did you approach the Dance music and how you‘ve started producing Music.
SF) I’ve started producing music using Fruity Loops 3 (before it became FL Studio, ed.) where I moved my first steps. After this, I changed to Studio One and now, I’m using Ableton.
As my approach with Electronic Dance Music, I produce what It make me feels right. I don’t classify my tracks as a specific style and It’s not important for me if I’ve produced trap, pop, vocal or bigroom.
For example, my next track will be released on Smash The House (the label of Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike, ed) and It will be bigroom.
In your social channels, we have seen that you’re frequently with young talented artists like Curbi or Mike Williams. How is work with them?
SF) There’s a special friendship between us. I knew them thanks to Spinnin’ Next (young artist platform created by Spinnin Records, ed) and since We’re all young, We try to help each other.
What do you think about the DjMag’s Top100 Djs and his evolution during the last year?
SF) In some countries the DjMag’s Top100 Djs is very important, in others less. I think It’s an important step for an artist become a part of this ranking. I really hope to enter this list, It will means I really did a good job for my fans.
One last question, would you like to play in Italy?
SF) I went in Italy in the last december (2016). I really loved this gig because the Italian crowd is very crazy.
