Boosin: I decided to go further and create music that really resonates with my personality

Congratulations on your new release \”Don\’t Fade Away\” on ODA! Can you tell us about the inspiration behind this track?

Thanks! The inspiration behind \”Don\’t Fade Away\” came from a desire to explore a more electronic and contemporary sound. It represents a new stage for me artistically, blending electronic elements with guitar and vocals. I hope listeners connect with the track and enjoy the journey it takes them on.

How does \”Don\’t Fade Away\” differ from your previous releases, both in terms of sound and your creative process?

This track is really different from my previous releases. I used to work mostly in the pop genre, but I decided to go further and create music that really resonates with my personality. I decided to combine electronic elements with guitar, singing and performance. It\’s a completely new sound for me, and I hope it resonates with listeners.

«Drunk Groove» became a multi-platinum single and topped the charts. How did that success impact your career?

Yes, in 2018, the success of this track was amazing for me, it was co-written with Maruv and it
It received many awards, hundreds of millions of views and helped me meet many interesting artists and musicians, it was a real level-up for me as a sound producer. After the war started in 2022, we stopped working with Maruv and it was a time to rethink myself as a musician. That\’s when I realized that I would like to work on my own music project and develop as a live artist and performer.

Your new track features an exclusive remix by Indifferent Guy. How did this collaboration come about, and what do you think the remix adds to the original track?

First of all, I have a lot of respect for indifferent Guy as a musician, his tracks and
vision, so I was very pleased when he unexpectedly remixed this track. He made the sound much bigger and more relevant for big venues, his remix has less romance and more powerful energy

After a long pause, you\’re back with a new sound. How would you describe this evolution in your music style?

This is the result of experiments in combining modern progressive and melodic vibes with electric guitar, and I finally accepted myself as a vocalist and decided to record my own voice in new tracks.

What challenges did you face during your break, and how did you overcome them to return to music?

In fact, I never gave up music, I just did more ghostwriting, worked with Ukrainian pop artists, and worked on my sound and project

As a sound producer, singer, and live performer, how do you balance these roles, and which one do you find most fulfilling?

It\’s really quite difficult for me at times, because I think of myself as a record producer first and an artist second, but I\’m working on myself to try to improve my weaknesses. It\’s also sometimes difficult to combine studio work and performances, but when everything is in balance, it gives a really full experience and satisfaction from the process of creating a track to the process of performing it at a show

What are some of your favorite memories from your live performances, and how do they influence your studio work?

Performances have a very big impact on the perception of your work, in the studio you can\’t always catch the vibe that you feel at a concert, performances give you a unique experience, feedback from the audience and a lot of new ideas on how to improve your music and performance

Who are some of your musical influences, and how have they shaped your sound over the years?

Oh, I have a lot of influencers, and I\’ve been into a lot of different kinds of music at different times. Since I have a classical music education, I often like to listen to classical music, and rock is also very close to me, I often listen to Pink Floyd before a guitar recording session and look for ideas. Depeche Mode definitely influenced me, and among modern music I would say Argy and Who Made Who

What advice would you give to aspiring sound producers and performers who are just starting in the industry?

I would advise you to constantly learn and improve, do more collaborations, look for your own style, try not to repeat, but to do something original that can best reveal the musical idea, go your own musical way 

Looking ahead, what are your main goals for the next few years, both in your music career and personal life?

I have big plans for the coming years, I still have a lot of music to share with the audience, a lot of ideas for the next releases, and I hope that my audience will welcome my new music 

Lastly, what message do you want to send to your fans with \”Don\’t Fade Away\” and your upcoming projects?

I would like to wish everyone peace, and stay tuned, there will be many more interesting new tracks from me!
