A short while a go I posted about Nanuchka (with some MP3s to download), and while doing that also sent them an email with a few questions. Some questions are not to be answered and some not be asked but only to have answers. A few days ago I got the reply from Yula, the lead singer and bassist. It’s not a real interview, more like some questions asked and some answers given, without any necessary connection between the two. One doesn’t really need such a connection anyway.

Do you make a living out of your music? Or maybe you work at your spare times as a librarian in a big old dusty library in the middle of no where?
You music is a concoction of flavors. Do you think music is the ultimate global unifier? Does music have a mission, or is it just there? And what are the reasons (if there are any) behind each of you?
Somethings you just can’t avoid, and the obvious seems to be one of them. So the obvious question I want to ask is what are you plans to the future? Any new releases at work? A grand world tour? Where is the best place to buy your music? Or would you recommend people to just Soulseek it?

Music to me is happiness. Like a dream or a scent it can never be completely captured or tamed and the rare moments that you think you got it are pure bliss, the rest of the time is the “trying to get there” which is lets say not the most pleasant of sensations. That’s pretty much “Why”.
Do I make money from it? Barely. Does it matter? no cause I try not to think about it and my land lord doesn’t know I live here,(kind of a squatting situation..).
I like inventing stuff and I hope that one day a fancy looking Sir will come across one of my hare brain schemes and say “Dear god , this will make millions”, and there I will be living in Italy for the rest of my life with the man I love swimming in the Mediterranean sea that will surly be environmentally safe by then, and our vine will give good fruit and ill own a bunch of ukuleles- strum strum day and night. Sounds lovely isn’’t it?
Well this is how I want my story to end and in the mean time, we are mixing a record. We are only at the first song and it has been quite a bumpy road that I cant really predict when… or where.
But the one thing I know, is that I happen to be listening to the radio and a beautiful classic piece is playing I never heard it before I don’t know who wrote it or who is playing it , but its pretty and makes me feel a bitter sweet sensation- and I thank who ever famous or anonymous composer that happened to wrote this regardless or his or her motives or aspiration,

Its just music

Its all music.

Sincerely

Yula.
