Additionally, his perspective on the modern music in- dustry was refreshing. Many artists view the current ecosystem of social media and self-promotion as a burden, something necessary but annoying. However, Per Pleks has embraced it as an integral part of his career, a tool to reach his audience directly without relying solely on labels or agents. For him, the key lies in authenticity: being himself and building a fan base that not only appreciates his music but also values his personality and transparent approach to life.
It’s true that in today’s age, social media plays a crucial role in an artist’s success, but what stands out about Per Pleks is that his connection with his community goes beyond superficial interactions. He wants to build something lasting, something real. He talked about how his music is more than just entertainment; it’s a way to connect with people in a manner that trans- cends physical or virtual barriers. And it’s precisely this intention to maintain a genuine connection that sets him apart from many in the industry.
Musically, I was also impressed by his ability to fuse styles and genres so fluidly. During the interview, he mentioned names like Svetec, Crankdat, and Tame Im- pala, which gave me an idea of how diverse his palette of influences is. However, the most interesting thing is how he has managed to incorporate these influences into a sound that is unmistakably his own. Many artists get caught up trying to emulate their musical heroes, but Per Pleks has found a way to pay homage to these influences while still forging his sonic path. This speaks to his artistic maturity and the clarity he has about who he is and where he wants to take his music.
Perhaps one of the most memorable moments of our conversation was when Per Pleks spoke about his approach to the future. He’s not worried about market trends or trying to please the masses. Instead, he fully trusts his musical instinct, what makes him feel good, what makes him dance while producing. This sinceri- ty is rare in a world where so many artists are obses- sed with numbers, charts, and streaming algorithms. Per Pleks, on the other hand, seeks something purer: a connection with his creativity and a belief that this authenticity will resonate with those who listen.
At the end of the interview, I was left with a sense that Per Pleks is not just an artist striving to be innovative and authentic but also a person who possesses great wisdom about life. He made me reflect on how, in such a competitive industry as music, the key to long-term success doesn’t necessarily lie in following the latest trends or mastering marketing, but in truly knowing who you are and staying true to that identity.
As a journalist, this interview left a mark on me. It’s rare to come across someone as sincere and thoughtful as Per Pleks. His path hasn’t been easy, but he’s faced it with bravery that will undoubtedly lead him to great things in music and life. I firmly believe his future is full of success, and I’m excited to see how far he’ll go.
