You made also some soundtrack work and music for ads. C<\/span><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">an you please tell us more about this?\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014I started my career composing and producing music for television series. I was very influenced by the first electronic bands and the space soundtracks that they were making. I was a very shy person and had difficulty interacting with other people so I was doing this space music as an escape from reality :). But actually I enjoy very much space sounds and music to relax to, and I am a very good space music composer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014The name of the band comes from Kraftwerk\u2019s <em>Trans Europa Express<\/em>. What did you like of them?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014I really liked <strong>Kraftwerk<\/strong>, they were a retro futuristic band very minimal so I chose Trans Europe Express as the name of my band <strong>Trans-X<\/strong> (TRANS Europe eXpress)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014At the beginning of the eighties, you used to hang out with the members of Rational Youth (we also interviewed Tracy Howe) and Men Without Hats. How do you remember those days in Canada?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014Those were the days you could buy a synthesizer for as much as a guitar with amp, so I was very exited and started to purchase several synths as part of my composing tools. I left my guitar aside and became a Synth Pop lover. Also this was the time of the video games arcades, these were the first video game consoles, so I wrote &#8220;Living On Video&#8221; after hanging out at these Video Arcades.\u00a0\u00a0 All these 80s bands were making retro futuristic music. <strong>Gary Numan<\/strong>, etc. It was also the time I started to go out to clubs with my schoolmate Ivan from <strong>Men Without Hats<\/strong>. We went to the same college. The 80s were very creative years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014You said that the track &#8220;Living On Video&#8221; was inspired by the movie <em>\u201cTron\u201d <\/em>and the idea of living inside a video game. Now it\u2019s possible to have a virtual life as video games have <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-44045\" src=\"https:\/\/elgarajedefrank.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/R-1109658-1192742550-300x298.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"447\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elgarajedefrank.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/R-1109658-1192742550-300x298.jpg 300w, https:\/\/elgarajedefrank.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/R-1109658-1192742550-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/elgarajedefrank.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/R-1109658-1192742550-585x581.jpg 585w, https:\/\/elgarajedefrank.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/R-1109658-1192742550.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/>developed a lot. Are you interested in them or in composing music for them?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014&#8221;Living On Video&#8221; was used in a video game. I am open to composing more music for video games. But for now I concentrate more on my new live show. I love to perform live.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014What happened with your second album, <em>Living On Video<\/em> that has the same cover but mostly different tracks that the first release? Don\u2019t you think it could be a bit confusing for people who already bought the first LP?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014I agree it was confusing, but &#8220;Living On Video&#8221; was a hit in different countries in different years so the album was \u201cupdated\u201d several times. 1983 was the first release in Canada and the Netherlands, later in 1984 it was a hit in Germany and the rest of Europe, Mexico and South America. In 1985 it hit the charts in the UK, in 1986 it hit in The USA. This was the time I relocated to Los Angeles, California.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014You said that HI-NGR has been an influence on later styles as EBM. Can you tell us more about this? As you lived in Spain for a few years, I guess you might be familiar with the Valencian scene from the eighties. I think that the influence of your music can easily be traced there.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014Living On Video was a Synth Pop song but it was also a very big Dance music. Hit. It was labeled \u201d<em>Hi Energy\u201d<\/em> in Mexico but in other countries it was labeled <em>\u201cEuro Dance\u201d<\/em> or <em>\u201cSynth Pop\u201d.<\/em> Dance music always evolves and transforms. I did do ballet jazz classes in the 80s, I used to love to dance, But now I concentrate more on playing my synth \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014What happened with <em>On My Own<\/em> that did not chart? The taste of the public had changed in those years?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014<em>On My Own<\/em> was not enough \u201cDance Music\u201d I suppose. It was more of a pop record. So I guess for that reason it did not do well. Also \u201cHouse Music\u201d was happening more. So it was just bad timing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014You said in an interview that you had some problems with the labels you recorded with for your first albums. How were big companies back in the 80s according to your experience?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014Back in the 80s if you wanted a record contract you had to sign away most of your rights and give them your first-born child \ud83d\ude42 But today it is the same, the labels make 95% of the revenues from streaming, etc. It is challenging to make a living as an artist.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014You stopped Trans-X in 1988 and made some ambient works, like <em>SOMA<\/em> with Jacques Languirand. I guess he was your father, right? What did you find interesting in ambient music? Did you see it as the evolution of your first works?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014In 1989 actually. I got divorced and moved back to Montreal, Canada, from Los Angeles. I was in a big depression and did get back to producing \u201cSpacey Music.\u201d\u00a0 I was not inspired to make Dance Music anymore. I produced at the time the album <em>Gregorian Waves<\/em>\u00a0all sung in Latin and old French, one of my best works besides Dance Music.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-44049\" src=\"https:\/\/elgarajedefrank.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/R-4410994-1364151965-9619-296x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elgarajedefrank.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/R-4410994-1364151965-9619-296x300.jpg 296w, https:\/\/elgarajedefrank.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/R-4410994-1364151965-9619.jpg 583w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/>\u2014You were back with Tran-X in 1995 with <em>Trans-X\u2019Xcess<\/em>. What made you return to this project?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014I had a friend in Barcelona, Spain, who wanted to invest money in a new <strong>Trans-X<\/strong> record. So this was an attempt to produce new Dance Music and to return to the Pop Music scene.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014In 2012 with the <em>Hi-NGR<\/em> album and later with <em>Dreams Are Made Of Fantasies<\/em> you included some original tracks and new remixes of some of your classic songs. I put these albums as examples, but you have always been doing it. Do you like to update the sound of the songs or are you looking for the definitive version?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014I guess I am never totally satisfied with a track and I try several times to make a better version of a song until I find the right way to produce it. But also there are many Dance Music styles so I like to produce several versions and mixes of a track.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014In <em>010101 <\/em>from 2001 and <em>The Drag-Matic<\/em> album from 2003 you included some songs in Spanish. How was your time in Spain?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014Actually, I was removed from the band in Spain. They thought <strong>Trans-X<\/strong> was better as a Drag Queen band. I was not making any money at the time with <strong>Trans-X<\/strong>, I was very depressed so I abandoned music altogether and started a new career making websites for clients. At the time I was programming with Dreamweaver, Flash, etc. Also I was producing video for musical groups. I thought my time in music had passed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014Luana Viana is your wife and new singer, right? What has she added to the sound of Trans-X? I read that the main Psy-Trance influence of the album comes from her, right?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014You are right, Luana made me discover, \u201cPsychedelic Trance.\u201d\u00a0 I really love this style of music. It is a logical evolution from Hi Energy. So we incorporated elements of Psychedelic in the new tracks. It is a hybrid style but it retains most of the Hi Energy sound, it is just updated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014Your last EP is entitled <em>Psy Energy<\/em> and consists of four remixes of old songs. It could be seen as a step forward after your releases from 2013, <em>Trance versions<\/em>. First you had \u201ctrance versions\u201d of your songs and later you mixed trance with your own Hi-NRG sound, right?<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-44042\" src=\"https:\/\/elgarajedefrank.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/PHOTO-2022-03-28-12-09-17-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elgarajedefrank.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/PHOTO-2022-03-28-12-09-17-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/elgarajedefrank.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/PHOTO-2022-03-28-12-09-17-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/elgarajedefrank.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/PHOTO-2022-03-28-12-09-17-585x780.jpg 585w, https:\/\/elgarajedefrank.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/PHOTO-2022-03-28-12-09-17.jpg 780w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014This is absolutely right. It is an updated sound to present Hi Energy to a younger generation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014You have made the soundtrack for David D\u00e1vila\u2019s documentary \u201cDiscolocos\u201d, how was the experience? The documentary is about Hi-NRG in Latin America, right?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014The movie is about the Hi Energy movement in Mexico City. It is strange how this style of music is still very vibrant in Mexico. It was a very good experience to get back to producing Hi Energy music for the movie.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014One of your side projects I would like to comment is Cybernium. You worked with Michel Huygen, who released some interesting electronic albums in Spain in the late seventies with Neuronium. How was the collaboration born? \u200e<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014I would rather not talk about this part of my life in Spain. A lot of money was stolen from me and I had to start over my life, and abandon music for a number of years. In 2004 I returned to Montreal, Canada, from Spain. I was ruined, had no money left and had to go and sleep on my sister\u2019s couch. Later that year I was admitted in a psychiatric hospital. I have borderline personality. This was when I hit the bottom. From there, I could only rise again from the ashes\u2026\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014You have been living in Mexico since 2008. How has the experience been? You moved to Merida recently, didn\u2019t you?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014After almost 15 years living alone in Mexico City, and after one year speaking on video chat, I sent Luana a plane ticket and asked her to come and live with me in Mexico City. We got married in 2021 (she is Brazilian). Later, we decided to move to M\u00e9rida, Yucatan. This is where we have the new studio<em> \u201cHangar S\u00f3nico\u201d <\/em>with our friend and new member of <strong>Trans-X<\/strong> Ram\u00f3n Serratos,<em> \u201cDJ Rams.\u201d <\/em>\u00a0We love it here but the weather is very hot during half of the year. But the beach is only 30 minutes away.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014In Mexico, you have created your own label, Skypark Records. What are your plans with this label? Any future release that you can advance us?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014Actually, I created a label called LOV RECS in Mexico City in 2009 but sold my shares in the company 2 years ago. Skypark is not my label. I just want to be an artist from now on and have no plans to be involved in a label besides producing new talent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014I read that one of your projects is a kind of performance with dance, trance and pre-Hispanic sounds. Can you please tell us more about this? It\u2019s called Teyolia, right?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014Yes, <em>\u201cTeyolia\u201d<\/em> is a project with pre-Hispanic dancers <em>\u201cGuerreros \u00c1guilas\u201d <\/em>(The Eagles Warriors). The music is almost finished. We are currently incorporating traditional chanting into the tracks and will present this as a multimedia live show in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014What can we expect of your future concert at Sinner\u2019s Day?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2014At <em>\u201cSinners Days Festival\u201d<\/em> we will present the new live show with <em>\u201cPsy Energy\u201d<\/em> music incorporating my synth with Luana\u2019s electric guitar. We had very good feedback from this new live show. I was not expecting such an overwhelming reaction to this new style.
