Popular Dutch group, Spectral Display, stopped by for a chat; what a treat!
Colby: What Do You Enjoy Most About Being A Musician?
Spectral Display: Being able to create my own world through music and words is magnificent. This can be or either film, dance or pop music.
Colby: Which Track Of Yours Means The Most To You?
Spectral Display: A fan just recently wrote to me that my signature song ‘It Takes A Muscle Too Fall In Love’ made his last 5 years bearable. Which he thanked me for. This makes releasing every song worthwhile.
Colby: The First-Ever Gig You Played, Can You Remember It? How Was It?
Spectral Display: Ha, I was 18 years old, just released my first single and played in the Milkyway [Melkweg] in Amsterdam. There were like 60 people. And it thrilled me to be in front of an audience and improvise on the spot.
Colby: What Do You Think Is The Key To Success As A Musician?
Spectral Display: Coming from the 80s with less technical possibilities I have been forced to make simple but effective choices in how `I could let my music sound as strong as possible. My first hit song ‘It Takes A Muscle Too Fall In Love’ was produced on a 4 Track Tape deck. The sound and vocal were different from what was heard before.
Colby: If You Wasn’t A Musician, What Job Would You Be Doing?
Spectral Display: I would have been a painter or graphic designer. I find a lot of joy in creating covers, promos & video clips for my music.
He discovered the gem when he was 12 years old and still has it now, claiming it to be why he fell in love with music. He likes to play disc golf when he's not writing about music. He is a one-of-a-kind individual who is always the first to bust out his air guitar on the dance-floor.
