Bucharest based producers/ remixers/ DJs, the Gemini Brothers describe 2014 as their "remix year". Tronik Youth, Shindu & Future Bones amongst others on the list of artists getting their trade mark, slo-mo, dirty arpeggiated dark disco mixes. 2015 is more about original tracks with releases already scheduled at least from May to September. We've got an EP on Duncan Grays Tici Taci imprint to look forward to in May, with remixes from Somerville & Wilson as well as a Tici Taci version. Then there's another EP in June on the fantastic Nein Records featuring remixes from In Flagranti, Daniel Kyo (Poker Flat), Lokier and Teniente Castillo. There's also stuff coming on new french label called Mange_Moi and Sheffield based Itchy Pig. Combined with more remixes still to drop, it's looking like we'll be hearing a lot more from Gemini Brothers this year. If you'd like to catch them live they DJ at the Pre Party & the Nein Records Igloo @ Alfresco Festival in Blackpool - May 23rd & 24th. There's further UK dates in Newcastle & Birmingham in June.

More house music goodness from the freakin podcast series. This edition comes straight out of Romania from the excellent Gemini Brothers. Here's a little interview with the guys: What is the best thing about Romania? What is the scene like there? TGB: We believe that Romania still has a lot to learn; from how to manage itself as a country - politically speaking, to music/ fashion/ art culture! We have an incredible country: lovely and generous people which is the great ingredient to comfortably living here, fantastic fairy tales places like Black Sea seaside or Carpathians mountains, folk art, lovely and fresh food (the vegetables are still organic and the sheep or goat cheese - telemea is incredible)! Unfortunately, the music scene is quite small, if we refer to the entire Romania! But there is our capital Bucharest, which is in top with clubs and the clubbing scene, but Cluj or Timisoara are coming back with great clubs and the artists invited to play and perform! The bars and clubs are quite pretentious and commercial seems to gain a lot of attention, probably like everywhere, where people are going out only to show their clothes and latest cars or iphones! Still the underground clubs comes with strong and heavy competition with big names from the scene and the crowed is warm and starts to be very knowledgeable in this house music culture! Do you still live in Romania? Can your country be “heard” in your music? TGB: Yes, we are based near Bucharest, just moved out from the big city madness at the country side, which is better for inspiration and healthy. No cars, no sirens, no sidewalks, just cats and dogs around! We don't really use too many things from the Romanian folk traditional music; our inspiration is not quite Romanian. The Romanian folk music is multicultural, still popular and divided into regions, and the main and common instruments are violins, taragots (which was replaced by the saxophone lately), pipes, and accordions. There are as well big influences from the traditional music from tartars, Turkish and Bulgarian style and characterized by Balkans and Turkish rhythms. Maybe a little bit our drum parts have some small influence, but really small. What would you say were the biggest influences on your music? TGB: We listen a lot of music; from classical music (we have a rule by Monday to be the non-electronic music day), '70s psychedelic rock to ambient or hard techno. We're quite influenced these days by the acid techno from the 90s, some old Josh Wink or Baby Ford, but as well loving the 80s disco era. Nevertheless, some time ago we've produced some nu-funk releases and remixes, so James Brown, Johnny Hammond or Gil Scott Heron soul tracks were never missed in our iPod track-list. Lately we discovered more and more obscure artists and bands who were, in their side, been influenced by the Nordic disco from Todd Terje or Prins Thomas, as well Sir Andrew Weatherall or Ivan Smagghe have big places in our minds and souls for inspiration. What are your favourite tracks of the moment? TGB: (Ionut) - Gameboyz - Foco / (Razvan) - Pink Floyd - Echoes You have only been releasing your own productions relatively recently, how long were you djing before this? TGB: Well, we've started some time ago, in 2001, in one of the hottest places from Bucharest in those days, probably the best underground place ever - Web Club, which was owned by a Greek guy and friend of us. Here most of the old-skool DJs formed and performed. You could find here parties from hip-hop to techno or d’n’b. Lovely place and full of positive, inspirational, creative home! We used to play here only on vinyl, even if we didn't know at that time to sync too much, but was such a great fun and beautiful people! The production side came in time, some part came from frustrations that without productions nobody knows you, some came from ambition to play and produce for outside Romania and the possibility to be noticed exactly by the guys/artists you play in your sets. And is tested, we've started to be charted by the guys we love, etc. If we are looking back we're kind of sad that we didn't start to produce earlier, probably we’d be in a different place now, but is never too late to start doing your dream! What have been your favourite gigs and where would be your dream gig in the future? TGB: We had incredible gigs and experiences in London's Ministry of Sound and Electric Brixton or played in really great places like Budva - Montenegro and Dubrovnik - Croatia. We had as well really nice gigs in Romania. Cluj-Napoca has a perfect crowd, you can jump from disco to acid to house or electro and the people is jumping around! Is everything about the crowd, the warm people and how the dance-floor reacts, and there are a lot of places where the crowd is warm and sensational, and you have to believe me, all the big DJs who came in Romania said "we have to get back soon"! Our dream is to play in Ibiza and we did a small pact between us, never even visit the island until we go there to play! Of course another dream is to travel around the globe with music and gigs, love to comeback in US or playing in Australia! As well Asia has a really great scene! Shanghai is quite a target! What made you want to make the move from playing records to making them? Has this become more important than djing? TGB: As I've mentioned before, was all about some small frustration and ambition, but is more than that! You can play the best music, but without doing it is hard to achieve a place in this overfull DJs market. We loved some artists, we used to play them hard and never could stay or even get in contact with them. Of course this was behind our love for music! This is by default I think for every musician or producer. So, in these circumstances, we started first to make some remixes for some soul funk tracks! Believe us, we never been conscience about the artists we edit or remix, we loved the tracks as it was. They liked it and then we've started to do our own tracks and the feedback was unbelievable, those big guys who were our targets now start charting, playing, and supporting us! Now we are totally into productions, keen on finding our own sound, buying analogue equipment, but never let DJing on the second place! We love to play; we love clubs, turntables, art of mixing! We play quite often lately and what is great for us is that we used to travel outside Romania! How would you describe your productions? We think that our own sound is still in the development period, still many things to try, learn, experienced. Of course we have our funky background, and if you listen most of our tracks have guitars, funky bassline, and never thought to our tracks to have minimal lines. But lately we are very attracted by acid, deeper bass, wired atmosphere and crazy psychedelic disco. Probably in this line most of our future productions will sound! But never say never to test and do many other things. We have a project with some deep vocal house influences, so, never say never! Your Podcast for us is full of rolling electronics and dark acidic grooves. Is this typical of the sort of set you like to play out in a club? TGB: Well, depends a lot about the gig, club, atmosphere, crowd, warm-up, how many hours we play... We really made a podcast with things we like these days and we're influenced by, but our sets could be groovier or house, discoes or even techno. Is everything about reading the crowd! Of course, this is a podcast, but in club we never make a track-list before, we learned that until 2001 and still learning. What can we look forward to over the next year from Gemini Bros? Any big gigs or productions on the horizon? TGB: Good question, if 2013 was and still is a busy year from all the perspectives, production vs. gigs, 2014 will be for sure the cherry on the top. For this year is still planned to launch another two releases, one on vinyl and the other one digital for London's based label ISM Records and Home Breakin Records from Canada. As well we were involved in some remixes on vinyl and digital for some good names like Ursula 1000's new disco project Quentin Quatro, YamWho feat. Robert Owens and the list continue but we'd like to keep all the info until things are sorted and ready to get out! Gigs? Probably London and Croatia again, UK and Italy for the first time and the list goes on. The facebook page will be updated with all our gigs periodically, so give us a follow or a like!
