Producer and sound designer Suonho has been winning remix contests, DJing and producing cinematic, groove-laden funk tracks since the turn of the Millennium - but his days of bubbling away under the radar are numbered. Here at NuFunk.net, we think 2010 could be his year to blow up!
He took time out to talk to us and drop a free download for NuFunk.net members only.
How did you start out making tracks?
I started composing music and soundtracks since 2001. My entry into the cinematic world of music was creating some theatre pieces for “Il Teatro Del Sogno”.
After that I made a series of pieces for theatrical producions and then scored video for independent videomaker-documetarists (“Fonti” for Bluefactory), installations (“Sovraccarico comunicativo” under the multiple-name of Gianfranco) and readings (“Oltre il muro”, written by Alfonso Cimirro).
How would you describe your music? Is there a Suonho sound?
I have a cinematic style, which is strictly focused on the clash between evocative atmospheres conceived as environments, field-recordings reworked as concrete-noises and irresistible goroovy rhythms. It's music often enjoyable out of the original cinematic, it's meant also for dancefloors and brainfloors!
Suonho has been comissioned to remix everyone from the Bahama Soul Club to Bob Marley by a string of labels including Lounge Records, d:vision Records and Bar Grooves.
He also has a free track on the Budabeats netlabel, which you can check out here.
Check out a couple of his remixes below, including the Rapper's Delight version, which he is releasing exclusively to NuFunk.net members through The Vault over at our forum.
You can't get in to this exclusive forum if you're not a member of NuFunk.net, in fact the forum is invisible until you sign in.
Once you sign in, the password for the Vault is in the forum description. We've spray-painted it out in the picture below, but you get the idea:
