He is a resident of two major party labels around the world, has already released music for a record label that has released one of Armin van Buuren’s most iconic albums and last year passed through Brazil a few times in memorable performances. He lives in one of the magical lands of electronic music and recently has released an incredible single. We interviewed: Taao Kross.

Beat for Beat – Let’s talk about your new track, “Start a Fight”, which was released by Blanco y Negro. You’ve used more “futuristic” elements, but not a future house and have broken beats, reminiscent of the trap, and a sound that resembles a lot of work by Porter Robinson and Deadmau5. How is the construction of a track of this type, that does not stick to a single style, but that has several influences, without losing the personal touch?
Taao Kross – I find myself creating new music every day, different sounds without a pattern. I try to find my sound and I think it’s coming soon. In this work we have already taken a different step that will take us towards everything that comes. “Start a fight” is a starting point towards what my sound will be.

B4B – You are currently on a world tour with Pacha (which even went through Brazil last year). What is it like to have the responsibility of being the resident of a world-famous label?
Taao – Over time it has become very simple although it is a very large responsibility. We visit many clubs, festivals and events all over the planet, for that we must be prepared and not only musically. I’m super happy because I am showing my music and my show in all corners of the planet … and the best is yet to come.

B4B – Besides Pacha, you’re also a resident of David Guetta’s F ** K Me I’m Famous party. What is it like working with one of the DJs who was once considered the best DJ in the world by DJ Mag?
Taao – It’s an honour and a privilege. Having an idol like David Guetta every Thursday of the summer in walking distance and being able to perform at his party is INCREDIBLE. I have great respect and admiration.

B4B – In addition to your new release, you also released tracks on labels such as Gareth Emery’s Garuda and Sirup Music, which released one of Armin’s most acclaimed albums, The Mirage. How is your creative process to launch so many tracks like that? Are record labels very demanding regarding deadline and musical quality?
Taao – Every day, as is natural, labels are more demanding and that’s the beauty of being creative for people who understand the music. Now I have to keep growing and I aim to reach the big multinationals with everything I want to launch next.

B4B – Later this year you will perform at Unite Tomorrowland in Malta, as well as other major festivals. How does it feel to take your name to grandstands around the world? How does this reflect in your presentations, without being totally influenced by new musical trends?
Taao – I’m proud to be for the second consecutive year performing on the mainstage of one of the most respected brands in the world TOMORROWLAND. Last year I had the honor of closing the mainstage epically, I hope this year to make it even more spectacular.

B4B – The year 2018 is coming in half … besides the tracks you’re working on, what else can we expect from Taao Kross? Think of a possible album?
Taao – I’m working on something that nobody expects and I’m also sure that it will be something incredible. I really can’t wait to tell you about it I think I’ve found my sound, the one that will take me to the next professional level.

B4B – And finally, do you like Brazil? How do you see the Brazilian public and its acceptance with electronic music in all its essence? Are you planning to come back?
Taao – I love Brazil, it was the country where I played most with Ibiza in 2017. Very soon I’ll be back again. It has an incredible public, some wonderful clubs and a culture that I love. I hope to return this year more times than in 2017.

Taao – Thanks to you for the support, I hope to see you again very soon and I hope my new single has the same success that I wish to you.
