Late At The Party Perspective on #2 Beachside Remix - The Big Beautiful Bill Short Version

Prince, Daft Punk, and Roísín Murphy. Three artists who blend style, depth, and groove — and who aren’t afraid to be different. That’s the lane I hope to be driving in.

Late At The Party is an electronic music project focused on creating vibrant disco-inspired tracks that mix fun with reflection. I produce, write, and release music that aims to get people dancing while subtly encouraging them to stay aware of the world they live in.

My background in music education, combined with years of absorbing knowledge from top mixing and mastering engineers, shaped the sound of this track. I’ve learned to trust my taste and translate it into bold, clean production. Influences from funk, disco, and social commentary are baked into the DNA of this song.

My earliest memory of music goes back to when I was about five, listening to the 12” version of ‘Let’s Clean Up the Ghetto’ by The Philadelphia International All-Stars. Artists like Lou Rawls, Billy Paul, and Teddy Pendergrass left a lasting impression. Alongside that, I also remember hearing Harry Belafonte, Beethoven, and D-Train. That mix of soul, classical, and funk has stayed with me—and you can hear echoes of it in my own sound.

I never really “decided” to become an artist. I was born this way. Music and performance have always been in my blood. From a young age, I felt rhythms in my body and ideas in my head that needed to be shared. Being an artist isn’t something I do — it’s who I am.

It’s a funky cocktail of nu-disco, retro grooves, electronic rhythms, and a pinch of soul. You’ll hear echoes of classic disco, but with a modern, dancefloor-ready twist. It’s made for dancing, smiling, and maybe even thinking a little.

In the last three years, I’ve refined my sound through education and hands-on learning with top-level engineers. Fab Dupont’s PureMix videos, Mixing With Mike (Whitney Houston’s mix engineer), and mastering experts like Frank Mastering, Da Goose, and Antonio Sabto influenced my entire approach. These experiences deepened my taste and gave me the tools to reflect that clarity and punch in every track I now release. It's not what they do, but how they think as people... that's what you learn the most from.

My music explores the dance between reality and absurdity. I touch on themes like identity, power, social pressure, and the need to think for yourself — but always with humor and groove. I believe serious ideas don’t need to sound serious. If it makes you dance and reflect at the same time, I’ve done my job. if peace is made somewhere in the world and then 5 minutes before the handshakes are put in place, bombs are fired from one side that destroy everything... we as people are very far gone

Touring with The Gap Band, Daft Punk, PrimeTime Robots, and Snoop Dogg would be a dream. Each of these artists represents a different layer of my musical DNA: funk, electronic innovation, digital performance art, and hip-hop culture. I’d love to share the stage with them to create a genre-blending experience that speaks to multiple generations and moods — and most importantly, gets people dancing.

My favorite artists mix funk, soul, and electro in a way that’s impossible to ignore. Think powerful horns (EWF), playful synths (Mantronix), raw stage energy (James Brown), and stylish weirdness (Prince). Their music is a celebration of rhythm and identity — made to move you, body and soul.

I’d choose Vula Malinga without hesitation. Her voice blends gospel soul with fierce stage presence. She brings emotion, power, and groove to every note. Seeing her live would be a true lesson in what it means to feel music, not just hear it. https://youtu.be/WzKDiRJkH2k?si=xz_qtZRO8jtQh9On

that hasn't been released yet...it's coming

then I offend many hundreds I cannot answer

playing a track simultaneously in other parts of the world and showing the world that music means peace

then I offend many hundreds I cannot answer .... good question but....

their own happy feeling, which they want to share with like-minded people

That’s how I hope my fans describe me. I don’t just want to entertain — I want to spark something.

I love sharing my music digitally — especially on platforms like Spotify, YouTube, and Instagram. It allows me to connect directly with fans worldwide, tell visual stories, and create a vibe that goes beyond sound alone.

Absolutely. In the beginning, my practice was technical — learning tools, plugins, and structure. Now it’s more about refining my ear, trusting my instincts, and crafting sounds that feel alive. Practice has become less about routine, and more about focused intention.

A fan once messaged me saying my track was “exactly the kind of weird, funky therapy I didn’t know I needed.” That line stuck with me. It’s why I do this — to surprise people, lift moods, and make space for feeling something.

Success, to me, is staying true to my creative vision while still growing and evolving. I measure it in small milestones: finishing a track I’m proud of, seeing a fan comment that it meant something to them, or hearing my sound improve year by year. Recognition is nice — but artistic honesty and consistency are what matter most.

My goal is to push nu-disco forward — not just sonically, but conceptually. I fuse old-school funk energy with modern themes, satire, and digital storytelling. It’s music to move to, but also to think through. That’s where I want to leave my mark.

Artists reflect, provoke, and connect. We translate emotion, challenge norms, and give shape to things people feel but can’t always say. Our role is to turn personal expression into something universal — and unforgettable.

For me, “Around the World” by Daft Punk or “Ain’t Nobody” by Chaka Khan.  defines success. It’s simple but unforgettable — a global anthem built on repetition and precision. It reminds me that success doesn’t mean complexity — it means clarity, identity, and impact.

My scariest experience? Playing a hot open-air festival where my vinyl warped mid-set and the CDJ started glitching. Nothing prepares you for that kind of live stress — but it also pushed me to stay cool and adapt fast.the audience can also be your greatest support that makes you grow

My most embarrassing moment? Forgetting the name of the song I was about to play — my own song. Someone asked me mid-set, and I just froze. Total brain blank. I laughed it off, but it reminded me that even when you make the music, you’re still human.

I’d change the way streaming revenue is divided. Artists invest time, emotion, and energy into their work — yet often see only fractions of a cent per play. I’d push for fairer compensation models that actually support independent creators instead of just boosting platforms and labels... and make room for the master engineer

I’ve worked technical jobs that had nothing to do with music — but taught me everything about discipline, focus, and attention to detail. Whether it was solving tech issues or setting up systems, those skills now live in the way I structure beats, sculpt sound, and manage chaos in the studio. Music may be art, but it’s built on tech — and I’ve lived both sides.

My passion for tech and culture feeds directly into my music. The technical side helps me shape tight, polished productions, while my love for social commentary pushes me to add deeper layers. I don’t just build tracks — I build stories.

Being an artist can be isolating, especially during long studio sessions. But I stay grounded by collaborating, sharing ideas, and engaging with people who feel the music like I do. That connection makes the solitude worth it.

An artistic outlook means seeing possibility where others see patterns. It’s about being present, playful, and curious — turning everyday moments into ideas, and emotions into sound.

My favorite work of art? “Purple Rain” by Prince — both the song and the performance. It’s emotional, cinematic, raw, and somehow universal. It breaks rules but feels timeless. That kind of fusion between vulnerability and power is something I constantly chase in my own creative process.

Which mediums of art do you most identify with?... I connect deeply with photography and long-form visual storytelling, like Netflix series. Photography teaches me to focus on detail and emotion within a frame, while great series inspire structure, mood, and character — all things I try to translate into my music.

Being an artist taught me that vulnerability is a strength. The more honest I am in my sound and storytelling, the more people truly connect. That’s the real magic.

The main reason I keep making music? Because it helps me stay human — and reminds others they’re not alone. That’s powerful. That’s enough.

My main goal is to make music that connects: body to rhythm, heart to message, and people to each other. Danceable, thoughtful, and always true.
