GroovCastGroovCast 023: Flash Brothers

Three brothers by the name of Ruven, Ilan and Shmuel Flaishler make up one of the hottest dance acts / DJ teams around the world these days. They are better known as the 'Flash Brothers', who are the hottest dance music export from Israel to date as well as frontrunners on the international dance scene. The Flash Brothers are true pioneers in the Israeli dance music scene with regards to progressive house, Progressive trance and electro 80's house music. They don't like to be put into one distinct category, rather they consider themselves to be underground dance music producers / performers. Their ambition, hard work, and massive chart success - e.g. 2004 summer anthem 'Amen' - have paid off, as this hotly tipped trio performs all over the world nowadays at some of the most prestigious clubs and biggest events.

The Flash Brothers are currently based in Tel Aviv, but the boys enjoyed their upbringing in the isolated town of Nazareth in Israel. While growing up and attending school in their hometown, the boys used to listen to the most upfront music in all genres; especially electronic music fascinated them.

Articles Interview: Claude VonStroke

Growing up, what kinds of music did you listen to?
Mostly hip-hop but I also played the cello and piano so I have a lot of classical influences in my head.

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
It’s funny because even when I was very young I thought the greatest accomplishment would be to have a record for sale at the store with all the other records. I also wanted to be a movie director. I tried that as well but I just ended up being much better at music in the long run.

What was your very first clubbing experience like?
I don’t remember but i’m sure it was some dingy loft or warehouse in Detroit with my friend Anthony Garth and I was quite old already, like mid 20’s. I didn’t club when I was a teenager. I was into other things.

Your fans are eagerly anticipating your new Fabric album! Besides this, are there any other new projects you have been working on?
Yes, I have an artist album coming in October which also means singles are coming out starting right now.

What's the best toy you have in your studio right now?
My computer is always the best but I do have this analog delay pedal that is really crazy sounding. I like that thing quite a bit....[continue reading]
