Some would accuse Florian Meindl of never sleeping... At the tender age of 23 Florian Meindl has already released high impact records on traum, resopal, trapez, great stuff, pickadoll, klingklong, hell yeah, stilvortalent and many other prominent international record labels and has more records on the way from Mantra Vibes, Trapez and Herzblut. Alongside Oliver Koletzki, Meindl also assisted in the creation his own record label, Flash, which he manages and uses to release even more records, to no small degree of success. As though that work load was not sufficient, Meindl also traverses the world with a busy international DJ schedule. Fwd recently caught up with Meindl in his whirl wind to interview him and procure a copy of his latest promo mix. Do you have any other work besides the music business or does it consume your existence? I study music technology in London, which is very time consuming. In addition, I focus on music production, my record label, djing and other personal things... its hard but it works. What factors initially got you into a DJ support position for the likes of Sven Vath and Richardo Villalobos? I established myself in the local techno scene in Austria and got warm-up gigs first. At the time I was playing baby ford records, all the playhouse stuff and raum music records, etc. When you're producing music, how much of your focus is on producing for the pure artistic expression and how much is for moving the floor? The good thing is, getting the floor moving requires experimental and creative music. If it’s just a copy of something else the people won’t accept it as thankfully as new, fresh and innovative material. The problem is, sometimes it’s too far ahead of its time and hard for the audience to digest. What software/hardware/sample packs do you recommend to get the optimum sound for electronic music? It’s never wrong to get the experience of using the classic drum samples from an 808 drum machine, but the most important thing is to be confident with technical things like sequencers and synthesizers for the purposes of creative expression. A creative person could make a hit record out of game boy music or something; it really depends on your skills and your creativity. There are almost no limits in terms of software etc..... but for some people exactly this fact is precisely the problem. How critical has being in an EDM hotbed like London or Berlin been for the fruition of your career? London has been important because I learned very useful things in my university including the vernacular of the music scene. Berlin has been useful because of the people I met there, the working atmosphere and other experiences I made in this chapter of my life. Berlin is famous for its scene, but I’m actually not interested in going to different clubs and after hours. I’m more interested in other things there like the relaxed atmosphere for creative things etc. Some people act too much like tourists there, they are not aware of it but they destroy everything... they think they are cool but I don’t know if this is really important in life... What inspired you and Oliver Koletzki to create your own label? The fact that we had different skills which merged together within the label and the opportunity to release tracks which wouldn’t fit perfectly in other labels. What are some of the challenges and joys of running your own label? To develop other artists (for the future), having the artwork we want, having the music releases that we like, learning things about the underground music business and having our own platform which can be built up. Are there any netlabels or little known labels that you respect and want to mention? WHITE MUSIC is quite good and I think not so well known as they have only released two eps... another new label which I like a lot is dubfires new imprint SCI+TEC. Last but not least I have to mention the digital only version of FLASH called FLASH digital which had a quite successful record from KELLERKIND a couple of weeks ago! We try to build up new artists with FLASH digital and have some really good material coming. If there was ever going to be a political or spiritual message to your music or career, what would it be? Try to express the deepest things on your mind and assist its expression by developing your skills and doing your work at the most perfect way you can. What is coming up in 2008 that is exciting for you? I hope that the summer is going to be exciting, relaxing and that I can spend a lot of time with my friends. I’m also looking forward to the new techniques and skills I’m going to learn and my creative work in the studio. Do you have any comments about the Trapez promo mix that we are hosting as a part of this interview? I think this mix really has a special flow, I hope some people appreciate it a lot and have a good time with it. Dj mixes have always been very important for me when I grew up in Austria; I spent a lot of time traveling to school or to gigs etc and I was always listening to other dj sets. For some people who are engaged in a lifestyle or job they don’t really like it is so important to have the ability to listen to nice dj mixes and not just a selection of local songs during their hard times. I would describe it as a “driving to the next rave in a car with mates warm-up set" Florian Meindl - Trapez Promo Mix - Track List gideon - nightfall (sino) paco osuna - transheet (plus 8) secret - promo (white) florian meindl - subfocus (trapez) secret - promo (white) lutzenkirchen - nut trap (stil vor talent promo) florian meindl - blast (trapez) the dolphins - haze hard (sci+tec) kellerkind - tomtom (flash digital) fachmann - fachmann 2a (fachmann) secret - promo (white) Other Resources: http://www.myspace.com/florianmeindl http://www.myspace.com/flashrec http://www.florianmeindl.com
