- 0:41Speaker 1: absolutely one hundred percent completed. The conversation itself didn't happen,
- 0:46Speaker 1: but I keep all my notes because I believe paths
- 0:48Speaker 1: will one day cross again. Let me explain missed opportunity.

- 0:56Speaker 1: open enough space at the end of every question, hoping

- 1:03Speaker 1: happened seven different times, sometimes waiting three years. Missed opportunity

- 1:12Speaker 1: in a bottle that's been tossed out to see I
- 1:14Speaker 1: hope to locate the destination. This week we're putting focus
- 1:18Speaker 1: on my missed opportunity with singer, songwriter and DJ Bordeaux.
- 1:24Speaker 1: Let's see Bordeau, singer songwriter whose music has helped add
- 1:27Speaker 1: light and sound to new disco, tropical household, and vocal
- 1:33Speaker 1: deep house. So if you're into clubbing, you probably are
- 1:36Speaker 1: very familiar with Bordeaux, also known as a musical project
- 1:41Speaker 1: hailing from Bordeaux, France. The key musical influence here beach
- 1:47Speaker 1: and surfing. Now, after the success of the song Dance
- 1:50Speaker 1: on It, it was a slow house kind of effort
- 1:53Speaker 1: that opened the path for several electronic follow ups that
- 1:57Speaker 1: really kind of grounded Bordeaux in France, Germany and Brazil.
- 2:01Speaker 1: Then new release that followed up was Distractions, described as
- 2:05Speaker 1: being a unique pop track mixing future base and new disco,
- 2:10Speaker 1: which might be totally new right here in the United States.
- 2:13Speaker 1: Its lyrics speak of disenchanted love, sounds of nervous synths
- 2:18Speaker 1: intermingled with sharp, dark and epic moments. Now, the actual
- 2:22Speaker 1: invitation to share a conversation with Bordeau arrived on August sixteenth,
- 2:27Speaker 1: two thousand and seventeen. That was nine years ago. I
- 2:31Speaker 1: quickly replied, I would love to showcase this artist on
- 2:34Speaker 1: our brand new digital station where we put a lot
- 2:37Speaker 1: of our attention on freeform and dance music. A rep
- 2:41Speaker 1: from v Dog Music wanted to know, well, what do
- 2:43Speaker 1: you have in mind? Share with me what you're thinking,
- 2:45Speaker 1: and my goal was to literally bring a lot of
- 2:48Speaker 1: American attention or even global attention to Bordeau. Landing at
- 2:52Speaker 1: time proved to be the toughie only because Bordeo's time
- 2:56Speaker 1: zone was six hours ahead of mine. Well, the decision
- 2:59Speaker 1: was finally set up on Skype. Oh my god, twenty seventeen.
- 3:03Speaker 1: That means we were using Skype and not Zoom. It
- 3:06Speaker 1: was all scheduled, ready to go, but two different times
- 3:10Speaker 1: it was canceled due to sickness. It became a missed opportunity. Hey,
- 3:16Speaker 1: coming up next my questions and my statements for singer
- 3:20Speaker 1: songwriter DJ from France Bordeaux. Hey, welcome back to missed
- 3:26Speaker 1: opportunity this week. My missed opportunity is with Bordeaux, not
- 3:30Speaker 1: just one person, it's actually two. Mixing your sights and
- 3:35Speaker 1: sound the two of you together. Is it in separate
- 3:37Speaker 1: shifts or are you in the studio at the same time.
- 3:41Speaker 1: Your release in twenty seventeen was a two and called Distractions,
- 3:45Speaker 1: And while listening to it, you can't help but wonder
- 3:47Speaker 1: don't we just all get in our own way? The
- 3:50Speaker 1: journey comes to a conclusion because of those distractions that
- 3:54Speaker 1: you speak of. How much do you guys rely on
- 3:58Speaker 1: bloggers and social media can to get the word out
- 4:01Speaker 1: about your moves and beats? The style of music generates
- 4:06Speaker 1: hypnotic harmonics. It's like a backstage pass to an escape.
- 4:11Speaker 1: What are you feeling as it's being created? It's all
- 4:14Speaker 1: part of a brand new EP, a celebration of insight
- 4:18Speaker 1: and sound. Okay, the final question, and it has a
- 4:22Speaker 1: lot to do with this thing called new disco because
- 4:24Speaker 1: critics called your beats the future of bass and new disco?
- 4:29Speaker 1: Is it something you actually wanted to fit within? And
- 4:34Speaker 1: there you have it, another missed opportunity, a lost piece
- 4:37Speaker 1: of history. You now know the questions, so let's locate
- 4:40Speaker 1: the answers. It's been seven years. Let's bring this one
- 4:44Speaker 1: to a full conclusion. The door is always open if
- 4:48Speaker 1: you know Bordeaux. Please reach out to me at erroc
