your idea or losing what you’re famous for. I think it’s important that you have an idea that you have a sound, a specific sound, and don’t change your sound every two years. For me that’s quite important, especially over the last 6-7 years, I think I got a lot better in production without losing my sound.”
Tino´s approach to this new album has been mind-blowing, opening more musicians to his sound.
“Seven years ago, I was like, no, I’m in the studio, and I work on my tracks and since COVID I’ve been more open to work with other musicians. Especially for my new album, I invited loads of musicians like bassists and guitarists to work together. We created music together and this is something I never did before, but now I feel like it’s so positive for my sound because you get another view just by having someone else sitting with me in the room.”
“I invited writers and singers to my studio, and we wrote the lyrics and melodies together. It’s an evolution. It’s not a revolution. It’s still PDM. It’s still my sound, my trademark sound. But I hopefully could, yeah, get to the next level for me production-wise. I learned a lot over the last two years working with others.”
Collaborating with other musicians and incorpo- rating diverse elements into his music, Tino strives to maintain his signature sound while pushing the boundaries of his creativity. With a new album on the horizon and a live tour scheduled for October, Ti- no’s future is bright.
“I’m so happy with all the tracks, and I just can’t wait now to play them out.”
In a world where music consumption often revolves around singles and playlists, Purple Disco Machine stands out as a dedicated advocate for the art of the album. His love for the cohesive narrative that albums offer resembles a captivating story unfolding throughout several tracks.
“I was always the guy who loved to listen to albums. I still listen a lot to albums. I think I listen more to albums than radio or playlists on Spotify. So, for me, a good album playing all the 14 songs in a row, it’s like a story. Every artist wants to tell a story with 14 songs in one hour.”
This sentiment of storytelling through music is deeply ingrained in Purple Disco Machine’s creative process. He approaches his craft intending to weave together a cohesive journey for
his listeners,
whether it’s through a meticulously curated album or a live DJ set.
“When I play big festival shows where I just play 60 minutes, then of course we prepare the set to match the show. I think my set became for the big festivals and the headline shows more like a concert, so we travel with a light guy and with a visual guy.”
