When did you start to get interested in music?

Absolutely ever been dipped into sound, what strikes most to their composition is the lack of technicality whilst the performance is so high-ended. Thinking that 2018 composition of the band was finally a way to recompose worlds of post-punk like The Cure with the idols of the feminist culture like Mylene Farmer with a hint of Cyber queerness.

If you were an advertisement, which would your slogan be?

Will you ever understand how to love?

Which is the part you enjoy the most about music?

Absolutely everything about the process is exciting; from the first base line added to the software to the slightest change in Hortensia tone of voice. Maybe it’s a meeting point of both of us that can be our favorite one, in the studio alone with the instruments and just enjoying the vibe.

Most artists say that through their art they learn more about themselves, heal injuries… In which aspects has music helped you?

Maybe recovering from the mental breakdown experienced after university. Studying in one of the most renowned art school offered cruel truths to the creative process of one of the two that indeed created a complete trauma. Without Blue Work, Hortensia might be dead and Vytautas would be nothing without her words.

What does music mean to you?

Maybe just post soviet freedom *chuckles*! More seriously I think it’s a way for expressing something without having to punch each other in the face. What I’m saying by that is that we love each other so much we created a bomb that can only explode in people’s ears, I reckon. It’s just so tragic and magical at the same time. We always care about the vibration and pulsation of the heart for going on.

Who are your idols?

So many in fact, after Crystal Castle there’s definitely something us to David Bowie struggling years… Before the time he put a dress on *chuckles*. Maybe we will always remember La Roux for her French attitude Hortensia tend to fade away but it’s mainly rock and roll at some point, and the haircut! Maybe we’ll also say that Beach house is the must for the softness and desire… So much more we want to say!

If you didn’t like music, what would you like to do?

Maybe we do already everything we want in life. I mean, we work, we eat, pray (agnostically speaking), we love and wanna improve ourselves all the time! What’s best to do than just getting to know each other’s work more and more to merge into this very much intrinsically megalomaniac fun that is music if not also doing everything else we have been forbidden to do as kids? Just play.

Do you consider that nowadays there are more or less opportunities for new artists? Why?

Maybe it’s about opportunities. Vytautas is in his fourties – although he looks late thirties – and I think it makes a difference for him, that doesn’t really understand internet like generation Z. For Hortensia it’s about learning everyday more and more if possible. It’s just so overwhelming to go through the creative process, because by essence an artist is often inside its head, rather than in reality. Joke aside; I’m absolutely sure there’s more to come in the future; for who knows how to manipulate cyber spaces well. And that’s our intentions… We’ll develop a new concept pretty soon to be published.

What would your idyllic life as an artist be like?

Well it’s absolutely impossible to imagine anything right at the moment. We eat, pray, love and hope for the best to come. We don’t even know what’s going to happen in the next weeks! So we keep the good work and don’t complain, what else can we do?
