Tim Gartz Interview 2016

1 – How did you start making music?

I have always been interested in electronic music, my dad bought me a PC for like 7 years ago and I found out a software to create music with, so it moves from there on!

2 – What excites you the most about music in Sweden right now?

I’m really looking forward to hearing some new stuff from Hellberg, I heard that he was going to release some new stuff soon!!

3 – Clubs, festivals, or producing tracks? What’s your favorite part of this entire experience for you?

Producing tracks are the big thing for me and will always be I think. I’ve been playing on many clubs here in Sweden and I’m so sorry to say this but… Swedish clubs are in general not much compared to clubs overseas. My manager and I went to Pacha Ibiza a few years ago, that’s how clubs should be like if you ask me!

4 – Tell us about the creative process of your new track “Nights Light Blue”?

“Nights Light Blue” is actually a vocal edit and remake of my previous track Lightness. I made the track for like two years ago and released it on my label Casual Music. It has always been a really special project for me because of the nice melodies and the cool sax played by Steve Bone. Later on, we made the vocals for the track and I asked my close friend Gustav Bjule to sing those, so that’s how Night Light Blue was made in a short story 😉

5 – Was this the first time that you work with vocalist Gustav Bjule? Was it easy or difficult?

No, Gustav and I have done many things together. For about 2-3 years ago Gustav got into the final stages in the Swedish Idol and I helped him out with a track that never got released. Gustav is really easy and nice to work with; I’m looking forward to make more tracks with him in the future.

6 – Is there any significance behind the new single’s artwork?

Yes there is. I can’t really say too much here, It may be to figure out for yourself…;)

7 –What would your fans be surprised to learn about you? I’m so allergic to peanuts… Do never eat those when I’m around! *hehe* 8 – Is there something you do not tolerate in the music industry? I do not tolerate douchebags and people that think they are too good for you, I don’t want to say any names here but I think they will understand. 😉

9 – What are you doing these days when not working on new material or DJing?

I’m working as an insurance broker at a Swedish Company called Allra Insurance in Stockholm, I loooove it!

10 – What’s next for you in the upcoming months?

I’m working a lot in the studio right now to finish up some new tracks to the summer. I will also drop my next track “Uptown Girl” pretty soon. I’m so happy and nervous for this release, so I can’t even think about it!!!
