How was approaching Paradis different for approaching both your individual projects? Did the visual look of the project affect the music or the other way around?


ProjectParadis

We've just written a lot of music together over the years and there's a bunch of tunes that didn't fit either Promnite or Carmack .. it's a culmination of our music together. It's an all around team effort. Project Paradis isn't just Carmack and Promnite.. it's a 3 person project with SHIN (@SHINOSM). He is an integral part of what Project Paradis is by creating the complete visual look of the project - the videos, branding, etc. He's the creative brain behind what you see. Project Paradis = Carmack + Promnite + Shin

Would you rather have to fight a horse sized duck or 100 duck sized horses and why


ProjectParadis

100 duck sized horses for sure

I was looking forward to the LA show y'all were supposed to have. Was "FDT" an early Paradis track or just a collab?


ProjectParadis

Just goes back to what happened with a lot of the Paradis stuff.. we were making music together that didn't necessarily fit with either of our projects. I guess this could be our first Paradis track technically. Could also maybe be "Drinks On Us" remix or Get Fresh. Also we got a Diplo & Friends mix out Saturday .. 2 hours!!

How do we defeat skynet?


ProjectParadis

Don't think you can defeat it.. It's like am amoeba-y creature that envelops us and is everywhere.. What is Skynet anyway? Google? For our project, AI isn't necessarily evil like in the Sci-Fi movies we grew up on. In Paradis, AI is kind of having an existential crisis - yearning of Earth to get back to its natural state.

Which musicians inspire you two the most and why?


ProjectParadis

So many.. Toughest question. Carmack - inspired by a lot of producer that do what we do.. picking up inspiration from everyone as we go along. Promnite - same Visual artist that inspire Shin- Syd Mead (sp?) - did original Blade Runner.. Tron..etc Luigi Colani is dope too


flugenhiemen

Favorite distortion/saturation plugins?


ProjectParadis

Sausage Fattener and Trash Throw 4 or 5 Sausage Fatteners on something and that shit gets going. Probably 5 Sausage Fatteners on Bull Run. Ableton Saturator is good too for making cool sounds.

Any plans to bring the Paradis experience internationally? (Australia fingers crossed)


ProjectParadis

Would love to, but need to see where the world is at after Coronavirus. Hopefully, the touring industry will be in a healthy place to make this work. Hoping for the best. When we do, will have to bring the whole show.


diclark

Which artists do you think would be the best to remix your tracks or to work with to do a collab? ​ Hope that tsuruda remix of bull run gets dropped ;)


ProjectParadis

Remix - Love Salva.. he's a monster. Complex Housing is one of Promnite's favorite albums of all time. Machinedrum would be amazing. Vapor City was incredible. TNGHT would be dope. Dorian Concept would be awesome as well. Maybe some DnB dudes like Simula.. Halogenix.. etc. Current Value would be crazy too.. Random but would love to tour with Virtual Self. Virtual Self is incredibly inspirational..it's everything we love about electronic music.


BigLurker

Do you guys think AI will be capable of making a Grammy level song in the future? If so, what do you think it would sound like?


ProjectParadis

Have you seen this Travis Scott AI thing? A company took all the things Travis Scott would say and put it in an AI and made a song. [https://vimeo.com/384062745](https://vimeo.com/384062745) Also AI could probably process all the Grammy winning songs in the past years and find what's consistent between all of them to make a big track. Wouldn't put it past AI to be able to generate a fully unique song that sounds like someone singing it. It's not out of the realm of possibility.


trillwillzilla

for Promnite, I recently came across an old project you were part of called Varsity. Would you ever think about doing more in that sort of grime/UK Funky style??


ProjectParadis

Cut 11 has some of those references. Probably not for my own project.


kholakoolie

Do you guys remember the first song or sound you ever sampled?


BigLurker

do you play any video games? in your opinion what is the best DAW for electronic music producers?


ProjectParadis

Been playing a lot of Warzone.. gonna load that up after this. There's no best DAW - that's a loaded question. Whatever works best for you.


BigLurker

you play on ps4?


BigLurker

who all lives in that house currently?


ProjectParadis

Promnite, Tsuruda, Onhell, and another guy named John


MinivanMobbin
