Ville Lope

About

Though being relatively unknown to the big crowd, Ville has been in the inner circle of trance for quite some while. He has taken Schössow fishing, eaten leftovers of Thrillseekers chinese food and convinced Sean Tyas that reindeers really do exist.
After A&R’ing for Finity Recordings for 3 years he was asked to take over Subtraxx Recordings, founded by Miika Kuisma himself. At the moment his progressive tracks and remixes are gaining attention all over.

Quick 6:

1. Who got you in to Electronic Dance Music?

My relative was DJing way before me. Once he asked me to be a driver for him (he was still underaged) when going to a commercial gig. He showed me the basics and let me try before anyone came in. The first transition was perfect – then I knew I want to be a DJ.

2. What style do you produce?

Progressive trance, but with varying aspects

3. What kind of style do you wish you produced?

I’d like to do more compelety mental stuff, like Schössow is doing right now

4. What’s your favorite audio gear?

I do everything on my MacBook. That has to be audio gear, right?

5. Your most visited website?

Facebook. Hands down.

6. Where are you, and what are you doing in 5 years?

In 5 years, I’m still living in Finland, but I do most of my income straight from music. I’m performing all around the world.
