M.O.O.N.

Stephen aka M.O.O.N.

-Who are you?

My name is Stephen.

-Why “M.O.O.N.”?

I couldn't come up with a better name and I needed one to release under.

-Let’s talk about your new EP “Particles”?

Particles took me a lot longer to finish than I anticipated. It's comprised of 'Delay', a track I made for the Together Festival here in Boston months earlier, 'Warehouse', a track I did with Glass Teeth, and two new songs, 'Dust', and 'Plus Four'.

-Your EP “MOON” is simply amazing. I love the first song “Paris”.  What’s the story behind the EP?

I had never released anything officially, like a cohesive piece of work, but I had these tracks that I thought were good and I wanted to put them out there. I came up with the name, a friend did the artwork, and I put it out. The response has been incredible, I didn't expect anyone to hear it.

-What genres and artists did influence your music?

Everything I hear influences me in some way. Some artists would be Gesafflestein, Kavinsky, Com Truise, Claude VonStroke, and Juan Maclean.

-How much the live element matters in your Music?

When I preform live the experience is the most important thing, I want each set to be unique. I don't plan a setlist, I just improvise with my tracks.

I think Boston Bun, Disclosure, Bambounou, and Maelstrom are really changing house music right now.
