Exclusive interview: New Dance Music Friday featuring Curbi
Mar 10, 2017
We proudly present the New Dance Music Friday feature, your weekly update on all newly released dance tracks, brought together on one amazing Spotify playlist. Featured this week (among many others): Curbi! He's released his new single ‘Shinai’ earlier this week, and provides the list with some musical tips, and tells all about it in this exclusive interview.
Hey, you just released your new track ‘Shinai’. How did you create this?
"I had initially come up with a cool euphoric break back in november 2016 and showed it to my team in a meeting. Everyone loved the idea so it was straight forward. Once I had the main idea, I came up with a cool techno-ish style drop and from then on I managed to finish the track fairly quickly."
What does this record say about your musical evolution as an artist?
"This track really shows in my eyes/ears my development of style. It’s almost showing me maturing and getting better & better. My aim as an artist is to keep developing my own sound/style and play with different genres/elements in dance music. I feel that this track is a perfect example of that!"
The track is featured on Spinnin’s New Dance Music Friday playlist. How important is Spotify to you?
"Spotify is definitely important for me now. It’s a platform which everyone is using and if people want to discover my music then it’s a perfect place to visit. Also a lot of the popular music on Spotify is pretty much totally different to what I’m making, so my tracks being in playlists like these is a good chance for my music to be heard by a different audience and not just the club, festival audience."

1. Florian Picasso - X
2. Mike Williams ft. Matluck - Another Night
