《Steven視線》專(zhuān)訪Pete tong:做DJ,從婚禮到之聲
上海是個(gè)大品牌
S:對(duì)于這次旅行,你想要給中國(guó)的聽(tīng)眾帶來(lái)什么呢?
P:我什么都不會(huì)改變。我將做和上個(gè)星期在蘇格蘭、一個(gè)星期之前在尼泊爾一樣的音樂(lè)。我根據(jù)環(huán)境而改變,不是根據(jù)國(guó)家和文化而改變。白天、晚上、室內(nèi)還是室外,我會(huì)因?yàn)檫@些改變,挑選唱片。
S: And what do you know about the DJ culture in china?
P: DJ culture here is not something I know much about. But I'm intrigued by the way that Shanghai is developing. Because it is the most westernized and most welcoming to the outside world. It is such a great brand to the world. Everybody wants to be here right now. But in truth, the natural thing in the city hasn't involved yet to the way the rest of the world wants to be. It is still quite early. The economy is booming. But the evolution of infrastructure may not be ahead of what people want.?
S:你怎么理解中國(guó)的DJ文化?
P:這里的DJ文化我知道得不太多,但是我對(duì)上海的發(fā)展很好奇。因?yàn)檫@里是最西方化最開(kāi)放的,對(duì)世界來(lái)說(shuō)是這么大的一個(gè)品牌?,F(xiàn)在每個(gè)人都想來(lái)這兒。但事實(shí)上,這個(gè)城市的本性還沒(méi)有像世界其他地方所期望的那樣參與進(jìn)來(lái)。經(jīng)濟(jì)在繁榮,但是基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施的發(fā)展沒(méi)有走在前面。
S: Even when you are working with London records, you started to have you own brands, do you feel like being an entrepreneur yourself?
P: I never did actually, so I think I should have done more. Even when I'm working someone, I start my own label. And I did that UK. I suppose I can do whatever I can completely by myself.
S:你在和倫敦唱片公司合作的時(shí)候,你還是開(kāi)始擁有自己的品牌,你是不是更喜歡你自己的品牌?
P:事實(shí)上我還沒(méi)有,所以我想我應(yīng)該做得更多。即使我和什么人合作,我也開(kāi)始有我自己的品牌,我在英國(guó)是這樣的。我試著獨(dú)立完成所有的事情。
S: You just want to work on your own.
P: I mean I was nervous working with someone else for so long. It is only recently that everyone knows me as a DJ, everyone knows me on the radio. I didn't have a proper job, until 2000? Over the last 6 years I have actually been a guy of a proper job, my records company job. This was my hobby that became crazily successful. Then I'm still young to do different things. Maybe I will do the entrepreneur thing.
S:你只是想獨(dú)自工作。
P:我是說(shuō)和別人一起工作很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間我會(huì)緊張。只是最近人們才知道我是個(gè)DJ,在之聲里面聽(tīng)到我。直到2000年我才有正經(jīng)的工作。在過(guò)去的六年里我成了一個(gè)有正經(jīng)工作的人,在我的唱片公司工作。這是我的愛(ài)好,而且變得非常的成功。但是我仍然年輕可以去做不同的事情。也許我會(huì)創(chuàng)業(yè)。
