Interview With Victor Sierra

What was the recording process like? Was it in a studio or do you do it all

yourselves?

Hello Susys Magical World readers. Victor Sierra’s new single went very smoothly. We

haven’t experienced any usual issues like: is the production accurate, what mistakes did

we make in the recording process and such. We did it in our studio which more

professional than ‘home’. I mean it’s at home in our basement but with some high-end

features.

How do you guys write the songs?

At some point it comes like an urge and I rush to my guitar or my computer. I’ve got a

bunch of melodies and words and ideas swirling in my mind. I can hear them playing like a music box without a stop button. It can even be painful sometimes if I’m driving or such. Some might think I’m a loonie of some kind when they hear me humming when I record on my cell phone.

What were your main influences while writing?

Victor Sierra is influenced by many artistic and non artistic trends from different horizons.

Some out of the musical world : spy stories, retro-futurism, cinema, ephemeral painting,

politics, computer science, literature, history, industrial poetry...

What is your favourite song on the new release and why?

Well it’s a single… But it’s our favourite song anyway! At least at the moment.

How did you come up with the name of the release?

It came up to my mind all of a sudden. This often happens to me. Certainly under the

influence of the current state of the world. We’re dancing on quicksands these days.

How did the band get together?

It all started with Anouk (The Legendary Princess) and I (Commander Bob) coming from

very different worlds. We met between two centuries and decided to join forces and form

Victor Sierra. Other members cam and went and we finally decided to go on the two of us. It’s not quite true, because we have a jolly ghost fellow on stage, in charge of the

computers. He’s the now famous Piløt X-Ray.

How did you come up with the name for the band?

Victor Sierra could have come from the cryptic aviators' code alphabet but some say it's something else but they won't tell because they enjoy being the happy few. Amongst them different solutions to this enigma coexist. I find this controversy enjoyable.

Have you got any gigs or a tour coming up where people can hear the songs live?

We have an important show coming next at a German festival close to Hamburg called

Aethercircus. And we’ll have other shows this year. We can’t wait to hit the road.

What are your plans for the next few months?

We're now working with Deadfall Management. They will help us with the release of our

new single. We'll hopefully hit the road and tour as soon as possible. Thank you for the
