NeveroddoreveN Interview

posted by stino

Portland based electronic music artist, NeveroddoreveN (Heather Tucker) is early in her career as a solo artist but already turning quite a few heads with her original work and live show. Her work can be classified as dark wave and synth pop, drawing inspiration from notable industrial and postpunk synth bands of the 80s among others. She is a talented and expressive vocalist and her live performances are known to feature live video projections and dancers as well. Femmecult got a chance to pick her brain on her creative process and that gnawing feeling one gets when creativity becomes stagnant. Femmecult: Where are you from? NeveroddoreveN: I was born in a tiny town in Texas near the border of Louisiana. But I grew up in Houston, TX from the age of 2. Femmecult: What is your musical background? How did you get started? NeveroddoreveN: I am not formally trained. I’ve had no schooling in music. I was mostly a vocalist up until about 2 years ago. After being in a handful of bands from the age of about 22 I decided to go it alone. I find that working with others can be a lot like being in a relationship. You like someone more than they like you or vice versa. I was either looking for a way out of whatever band or completely heartbroken when whatever project didn’t work out. Not that I’m against collaborating now but it’s so much easier to answer to yourself with artistic endeavors. Also, I’ve never been less stage shy than when it was just me…..representing what I want to make…..from start to finish. Believing in it more. Standing by it, you know? Femmecult: Please comment on your musical style. NeveroddoreveN: Downtempo dark synth? Electronic droneloop sample? I...

Comfort Zone Records

posted by stino

Comfortzone Music is a record label founded by Christina Nemec in 2009, and is based out of Vienna, Austria. It’s a label for experimental and electronic music with a majority of the artists being comprised of female composers. I wanted to find out her perspective on running a label while working as a musician at the same time. Femmecult: Where did you grow up and where do you live now? Christina Nemec: I was born 1968 in Villach which is a small town in the south of Austria very close to the former Yugoslavian (now Slovenian) and Italian border. The neighborhood I was brought up was quite poor and/ or working class. Lots of families my parents age with kids and refugees from second world war as the colony of Untere Fellach was a former camp for forced laborers freed by the allied forces and the UNO who didn’t go back to the Soviet Union countries. My childhood was very exciting, my parents were very liberal, so I can say I had a really good time in this weird environment. At the age of 14 I discovered punk (1982 – way too late) for me as a way of living and I left home as runaway kid to visit squads in Vienna. FC: How did you get into making music? CN: Punk was the promise that anyone can do music with or without training or education. I started to play guitar, switched to bass guitar later. my first electronic works i produced in the early 90ies. first with Atari, later with Apple. FC: Did you have formal musical training? CN: When I was a kid, I started to learn to play guitar – but after one year I gave up – for I was...
