INTERVIEW: Dave Aude (2013)
With over eighty chart-topping remixes, it’s hard to think of an artist who has not been reworked by Grammy-nominated producer Dave Aude.? Depeche Mode, Lady Gaga, Coldplay, Madonna, Sting, LeAnn Rimes, and Donna Summer are just a few who’ve received the Aude treatment.? And while there isn’t a single trademark Dave Aude sound, each of his productions are solid and sound just as good in the clubs as they do on the radio.? Though he is known mainly for production/remixing, his skills as a DJ are just as evolved.? I had the honor of opening for him recently and was blown away as he worked three Pioneer CD decks, layering acapellas over different tracks, seemingly producing new remixes in real time.
Ron Slomowicz: There are singles coming out which say ?Dave Aude featuring X? and other singles that say ?X featuring Dave Aude,? what?s the difference?
Dave Aude: There is no difference; some people like to have their name first, sometimes. A lot of people are adding Dave Aude on their song because it helps them get their name out there. There is really no difference though, it just means that I am on the song somewhere.
RS: If it is a ?Dave Aude featuring X? track does that mean that you had more involvement on the production and writing side?
Dave Aude: I think that I have the same involvement in either situation. When I put somebody?s name first I am just trying to promote them as a new artist, as opposed to when my name is first it is my single and they are just singing.
SONG OF THE DAY: Jessica Sutta – “Lights Out”
When singers work with dance producers, there is often a conflict regarding the amount of lyrics in a song.? The singer wants to be the one telling the story, whereas the producer wants the beats and tracks to be the focus.? “Lights Out” stands out as a club track with pop lyrics where the shared focus elevates both elements.? As a member of the Pussycat Dolls, Jessica Sutta is no stranger to the pop world and her forays into clubland with Paul van Dyk, Dave Aude and as a solo artist (“Show Me” / “Again”) have been quite well-received. The track, by Waste Management, varies in styles seemingly inspired by Bingo Players, Zedd, and deadmau5, with enough rhythmic and mood changes to satisfy anyone afflicted with ADD (and yes, that’s a compliment). What others would consider a chorus is simply a bridge for Jessica as she goes for the money shot with the hands-in-the-air chorus.? Whether the song is written to a lover, to a DJ, or simply to a party is unknown but the plethora of hooks (‘oh oh oh’ chants, ‘put my hands higher and higher’ refrain) make it one of the stronger vocal dance records out right now.
