Formula Indie Sessions _ Interview with Saltataki
What is your earliest memory connected to music?
Well the first thing is that we are a musical family and a quartet also, Sabino: with my brothers singing folck songs in Salta, north of Argentina; Nadine: my father playing the accordion at home; and for Indi and Lumi since they were in the tummy.
How did your passion for creating music begin?
Creating music is always there, we admire the great creators of music and this is our vocation, thats why we do music, to make a contribution. Create is part of the fan of playing music.
What’s the story behind your current music project?
It is a love story, we are a couple, soulmate. This is our way of living: creating, traveling, learning and sharing our music with the world.
How would you describe your sound to someone who has never heard your music before?
Thats a difficult question, because this is music and we are free in creating it. The sound you have to listen it to understand. But here we have some words to try to describe it: it is diverse; we have beautiful voices; we have wooden acoustic instruments; deep sentimental melodies; roots on folck sounds of South America and pop influences. Indie Pop Music and World Music are our generes.
What is one thing you’ve learned that completely changed the way you make music?
Been independent and free in every way. Traveling is our inspiration but we can also say that having studied composition; having your own studio, and having many years working hard in this wonderfull music word; and knowing the there is steel much to learn.
