Description
Emika is inspired by the roots techno culture because "it was a movement with sound and dancing at its very core. It was not about idols or stars, it was about sound and people coming together to dance and feel free." She's inspired by dubstep from Bristol and London since 2004 when she lived in these cities because of its meditational bass vibes: "originally it was deep spiritual music made by kids for kids." These two influences twine together with her love of the great universal pop song, her abilities as a song writer, a classically-trained pianist and a singer, to make something completely unique.
Asked to name an inspiration from the past, Emika turns to Delia Derbyshire, the legendary Radiophonic Workshop composer who came up with the original Dr Who theme, "not so much for the sounds she made as rather for her questing spirit, it inspires me as i go ahead mapping my own musical realm"
