Velatix, a Hiroyuki Takahashi fan from down under in Australia, has just delivered the very first DJ mix inspired by HYPERSONIC music club!
INTERVIEW WITH VELATIX
What made you want to make a HYPERSONIC music club mix?
I've always been a massive fan of Hiroyui Takahashi's work, so when I heard he was doing a web comic based around club/dance music I thought it would be a cool idea to have a soundtrack to go along with the story.
What is your interpretation of HYPERSONIC music club , for example, your feelings about the story and characters?"
My impression from reading the comic so far is that it’s a story of friendship and energy. The antagonists have only just appeared in the last few pages so I'm interesting in seeing how it develops.
What are the ideas behind some of your song selection for this mix? Like, what made you choose these particular songs?
I really wanted to capture the energy that the comic gives with lots of vibrant, energetic music. Making the mix follow the mood of the comic was my main concern, starting off light before heading deep and darker into more hardcore techno/Schranz stuff. I mixed in as many Japanese tracks as possible; I've included music from EXBIT TRAX (a label Hiroyuki Takahashi is heavily affiliated with), DIETUNES (A label headed by Yohji Biomehanika and REMO-CON) as well as some small labels like Mind Circus Japan and even music from doujinshi releases.
