Tell our readers who don't know you: where are you from, where have you been and where are you going?
I’m originally Venezuelan but have been living in Berlin for around ten years... I always loved travelling and did it calmly for a few years but once you start touring, you tend to forget where you are, what day it is. So I’m glad there are lovely people out there who become your memory of a city. I’m going wherever there is music playing... Hopefully Brazil, Japan or South Africa?
You've worked on some new material with Billie Ray Martin. Tell us more…
The upcoming EP is called Off the Rails, will be released on October 19th. We started recording it a couple of years ago, after she worked on the track with Waterson. We ended up calling each other, cancelling appointments like the busy (lazy) bizz women that we are! And now the EP is almost out, with great mixes by Ray Grant, Napoleon and moi!
If you were to be trapped in a lift with five people from the world of music (musicians/artists/performers or DJs) who would they be?
Assuming that it will never happen, with Shirley Bassey, Sainkho Namtchylak, Stevie Wonder, Tina and Michael.
Aérea Negrot's DJ Chart...
Kim Ann Foxman - Let Me Be The One (Catz N Dogz Remix)
Right amount of dirt, funk and the sweetest voice on earth.
Billie Ray Martin /Aérea Negrot - Off The Rails (Aérea Negrot Dub Mix)
Be the judge!
Claude VonStroke - CaliFuture (Dub Mix)
Acid tech, groovy enough to shake the dust off the shelves.
Pittsburgh Track Authority - Treated
DEEP. COSMIC. SAVANNAH.
Kiki /Joyce Muniz - Warriors
Dark and sexy. It brings them all back to the dancefloor!
