On: Muscles



Woo! Our half-arsed new interview feature On: is back. This week's offcuts come from the mighty Muscles. We first spoke to Muscles late last year when he gave us the skinny on Australia's booming music scene. The 22-year-old Melburnian has since signed to Modular Recordings and has spent much of 2007 touring the globe with Soulwax.

We caught up with him when he passed through London a month or so ago. He's super-prolific, super-funny and super-sarcastic...

Muscles On: The Road

"It's awesome, I wish I could be in the crowd though and hear my beats loud like the crowd hear them. London is great. I love it. I could live here. America was fun but their accents are so whiny and annoying. Too many cool people say, "niiicccceee" too. That was great at first."

On: Guns, Babes, Lemonade and the rocket clock

"[My new album will be] out on Modular in September. It's called Guns Babes Lemonade. I created it over the past year. It's crazy awesome. I put 100% into making every track bang like a single. Every song is a different genre. There are no slow songs. There are: trance breakdowns; shouting and lots of vocal harmonies; techno; cut-up vocal house; electro pop; big basslines and synths. There is also something indefinable that nobody is able to poinpoint yet... Maybe the future will have to invent a new word for me. There's one italo-house influenced song called Marshmallow. I also sampled the rocket clock from Playschool for that song, do you have Playschool in the UK?"

On: Every spectacular idea in his brain

"It will be everything the first album is times one hundred. I've got so many new production ideas and I now possess the ability to reproduce every spectacular idea in my brain. I'm slowly inventing the Muscles universe, with each album it will grow larger. [I'd like to work with] people who aren't very musical, like Olympic swimmers. Australians are good at swimming"
