CASSIUS

Any introduction seems needless for artists like Cassius and their influence in how french house evoluted through the years. Being in the front of "French Touch" movement along with Daft Punk made them totally respected.

1. WHEN SHOULD WE EXPECT YOUR NEXT STUDIO ALBUM?

"Soon! We just started, as we're free from EMI. We're doing our own label: Cassius Records!, which is going to be based in Berlin."

"It's always evolving. Sometimes it's more rockish, sometimes more housey. I would call it electronic pop."

3. WHAT WAS THE CRAZIEST THING YOU'VE EVER EXPERIENCED AS DJS?

"The craziest is deifnitely the airport and the planes, other than that, except playing in raves in England in the nineties or in Medelin in front of very special VIPs, there is always some surprise for a DJ."

4. HOW DID YOU EXPERIENCED THE "FRENCH TOUCH"?

"It was great... Something really rare for french music. We travelled a lot (and still are) and we met so many people..."

5. DID YOU EVER THOUGHT GOING SOLO AGAIN?

6. TELL US WHAT YOU HATE AND WHAT YOU LOVE IN YOUR LIFE.

"I (Zdar) love a lot of things in my life. I use my talent for my music but try to keep my genius for my living. Not really hating anything."
