Kiddstock Loves Lisa Lashes - Exclusive interview

[Kiddfectious]

Loves



Arguably the biggest and most widely known female name in the global dance, Lisa Lashes has achieved more within the scene than most could only ever dream of.

With her first appearence on the Kiddstock stage less than a week away, we get a few minutes with Lashes herself to discuss fantasy, fairytale and Kiddstock!!


1. The Magic Kingdom will be your Kiddstock debut! What tales have you heard about Kiddstock’s gone by and what are you expecting from May 24th?

I hope to be like the kid on the Disneyland Paris advert. Jaw dropped, eyes misty, strange smile on my face and that’s from just walking through the entrance. Look forward to having a great day and evening, especially with all the fab DJs playing.

2. You’re headlining the Hard Dance Warehouse, hosted by Frantic. What can we expect from your set?

I’ve got some great new tunes to play as I’ve been a busy bee in the studio with lots of great people including, Alex and Kidd Kaos, Dark by Design and Phil York.

3. Which one track can we be expecting you to devastate the dancefloor of the Frantic Hard Dance Warehouse with?

The track recently that people have loved on the dancefloor is my new track with Alex and Kidd Kaos called ‘New Religion’. It’s very shortly being released on Kiddfectious and we’ve had thousands of hits on youtube which is great news for all of us.

4. From your point of view, which artist on the Kiddstock Wales line up is the set not to be missed?



I’m really looking forward to catching Glazby and Farley but also a guy called Neal Thomas as he has just sent me through my favourite tune at the moment. Will be keeping an eye on his tunes and maybe his CD wallet so he better be careful.


5. You’ve produced some huge tracks over the years and have collaborated with everyone who is anyone within hard dance! If you were to join forces with another artist from the Kiddstock Wales line up, who would it be and why?



I would like to work with Scot Project as I really enjoy his sets and one of his tunes is the first track on my new album. Maybe I will get him really drunk and fix a date with him in the studio whilst he’s unaware.



6. You’re a total festival favourite both in the UK and abroad! What other festivals are you gracing the decks of this summer and which are you most looking forward to?



I will be playing at Global Gathering, Escape in the Park, Planet Love, Norway festival and Defcon 1 in Amsterdam, which is a great summer of festivals for me. I love playing all the festivals, as they’re very different in there own way so I don’t have a favourite.

7. The Magic Kingdom see’s Kiddstock move to the magical Isle of Anglesey in North Wales. Will you be taking some time out to build some sandcastles or what is your favourite thing about the seaside?

The seaside brings back so many memories for me as I spent my younger years at Blackpool pleasure beach where the Tower Ballroom is as I was in a formation dance team. Wont be riding on any donkeys though, I remember being *beep* to death when a donkey round down the beach with me clutching onto him as the owner tried to catch us.

8. Kiddstock has taken on a new mysterious theme for 2009 – ‘The Enchanted Realms’. If you were one fantasy character or creature, who would you be and why?

It would have to be the Pixie ‘Liv Tyler’ in Lord of the Rings as we have very similar Pixie ears and I can ride a great sidesaddle, not on donkeys though…
