Interview
She lives upstream and creates the same.She is a fan of The Smiths and classical music, but also a die-hard reader. Anastasia Payne(AViVA) from Australia, who works in the USA, has already released her debut album Volume I, and soon she will release her first novel -self / less.
Your album is called Volume I. We can get the impression that another album is already glued in your head ...
I titled the album Volume I ,because I wanted to point out that it is part of a larger project. The music it publishes hinges the world and stories from my book series. Volume I foreshadows a steadily evolving story and the fact that there are many paths to it.
So what Volume II will be about ?
The sound will be slight, but the message and patches will remain the same. Topics of being in control ,expressing yourself, fighting for what you believe in. All of these issues are crucial for me as a human being and in the current era of the AViVA project.
Your self / less debut novel will be released in the fall.You admitted that the music you create is the soundtrack for a book.Soundracks are rather for films ...
I have always loved reading books and listening to music. When I was a teenager I used to match stories to the music I listened to or I wrote music to the books I read. Then I thought, why do I do this for someone else's work? , Nobody has done it before, and I always go against the flow. I want to combine graphics, sound, stories, characters with which I end up befriending. It's exciting. I think that the recipients will also find something interesting in this concept.
You come from a musical family.You started learning to play the violin at an early age, and as a teenager you listened to the music of The Smiths, and your music is just far from what you grew up on. On Volume I we can hear rock, but also hip hop and electro pop...
(laughs) I've always liked music that touches me, but not necessarily
