Why this name?
I didn't come up with any name, but I always call people Judas.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
In a good and bad way. In Norway the record stores only have commercial and crappy records. This way I can get whatever I want.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
If I got to work with instruments and keyboards free in a studio, yes. This way I could build more advanced songs, maby electronica.
Your influences?
I started listening to hip-hop four years ago, I think. First, commercial, then more and more underground. My main influences are hip-hop producers and some electronica artists. To name some: DJ Premier, Nightmares on Wax, Mekalek, 9th Wonder, Fat Jon, J. Rawls, Locsmif, Four Tet, Large Professor, Greyboy, Bonobo, Necro, Lewis Parker, Nujabes, Pete Rock, Nelly Furtado, RJD2, Nas, Masta Ace, Soul Supreme, Alchemist, Tommy Tee, Kankick...
Favorite spot?
I love it here in Norway, feel at home. If there was any other place I'd be though, it would be Brooklyn.
Equipment used:
Fruityloops for drums (kits or old soul & funk breaks, Cool Edit for filtering, Reason 3 for instruments, Magix Music Maker for gathering (it loops if you have cut out the melody to a wave file) and wavelab for bringing out the melodies in a sample.
