Dupa cum stiti Morcheeba revine in Romania, de aceasta data in formula completa. Noi am reusit sa stam putin de vorba cu unul din membrii trupei, cu Ross Godfrey… Despre ce? Vedeti in continuare. Va lasam interviul atat tradus (modificat pentru a avea un sens in romana), cat si varianta originala, in engleza.

1. Monden.Info: After a few years, you’re on tour again, in the full formula. How does that feel?

(Dupa cativa ani, sunteti din nou in turneu in formula completa. Cum va simtiti?)

Morcheeba: All warm and fuzzy like a pint of tequila. We are very happy and having fun.

(Toate bune, frumoase si calduroase ca un shot de tequila. Suntem foarte fericiti si ne distram.)

2. Monden.Info: Why did you choose to name the album Blood Like Lemonade?

(De ce ati ales numele „Blood Like Lemonade” pentru noul vostru album?)

Morcheeba: The name doesn’t really make sense, that’s why we liked it.

(Numele nu prea are niciun sens, tocmai de aceea ne-a placut).

3. Monden.Info: Do you keep in touch with your fans on Facebook, MySpace, Twitter?

(Tineti legatura cu fanii pe Faceboook, MySpace, Twitter?)

Morcheeba: Yes, everyday we check out what people are saying, you can look on www.morcheeba.co.uk too and find links to the social networking sites.

(Da, verificam in fiecare zi ce spune lumea despre noi. Va puteti uita si pe www.morcheeba.co.uk unde gasiti linkuri spre conturile noastre de pe retelele sociale.)

4. Monden.Info: What do you think about giving music for free online?

(Cum vi se pare ideea distribuirii muzicii gratuit pe internet?)

Morcheeba: I think people should be able to hear music for free online, just like the radio, but to get high quality downloads of the music they should pay for them otherwise bands can’t afford to make more records and they die. The music business is nearly dead already. I am gonna miss it if it does go completely. There used to be such great music coming out all the time. Now it is very, very difficult for new bands to make it because nobody wants to pay for music anymore. It is sad. 🙁

(Oamenii ar trebui sa poata asculta muzica gratuit online, ca si la radio, insa pentru a descarca piese la o calitate ridicata ar trebui sa plateasca, altfel trupele nu isi pot permite sa mai creeze muzica si dispar. Industria muzicala e oricum aproape moarta. O sa ne lipseasca daca dispare total. Inainte se facea o muzica foarte buna, acum este extrem de greu pentru trupele noi sa reuseasca, deoarece nimeni nu mai vrea sa plateasca pentru muzica. Este foarte trist 🙁 ).

5. Monden.Info: What’s your opinion on selling music online? Do you think there will be no more CDs in the future?

(Care este parerea voastra referitor la vanzarea muzicii online? Credeti ca nu vor mai exista CD-uri deloc in viitor?)

Morcheeba: CD’s are over. I love iTunes. I still buy vinyl too.

(CD-urile sunt terminate. Iubim iTunes si inca mai cumparam vinyl-uri)

6. Monden.Info: Do you read the reviews of your shows? If yes, does it influence you in any way?

(Cititi recenzii ale showurilor/concertelor voastre? Daca da, va influenteaza intr-un fel?)

7. Morcheeba: No.

(Nu.)

8. Monden.Info: What artists influenced your musical career the most?

(Care artisti v-au influentat mai mult cariera muzicala?)

Morcheeba: Jimi Hendrix, Wu-Tang Clan and Nina Simone.

(Jimi Hendrix, Wu-Tang Clan si Nina Simone).

9. Monden.Info: How do you feel about coming to Romania? Have you heard any local musicians?

(Cum va simtit la revenirea in Romania? Ati ascultat vreo trupa de la noi din tara?)

Morcheeba: I am excited to be coming back to Romania. I have heard the traditional folk music before and I liked it, I wasn’t such a big fan of the Heavy Metal.

(Suntem entuziasmati ca revenim in Romania. Am auzit si inainte cateva trupe de muzica populara/ folk traditional si ne-a placut. Nu suntem insa mari fani ai Heavy Metal-ului.)

10. Monden.Info: What’s next to come for Morcheeba?

(Ce urmeaza in viitor pentru Morcheeba?)

Morcheeba: We are half way through a world tour. When we finish we will start writing some new songs for a new album.

(Suntem la jumatatea unui turneu mondial. Cand se va termina vom incepe sa lucram la piese pentru un nou album.)
