In Void Interview on Nagamag

Renault to the left & Peugeot to the right


Nagamag:
What are the genres that describe better your music style?

In Void:
Neo-classical mainly. Also punk rock, opera and anything with accordians.


Nagamag:
Few words about your musical background and career?

In Void:
Renault: I was a modern artist in the truest sense of the word. Some paint with a brush, others with a pallet knife or sponge, I, well...I paint with myself, if you get my drift. I dip my manly member in paint and let my passion be my guide. I dazzled the tourists for years on the streets of Mont Martre, singing opera arias all the while and even playing accordian while painting with my "all natural brush". It would seem that some of my female admirers were a bit too dazzled however, and a jealous husband threw me into the Seine, and when I crawled out, I saw the wretched face of Peugeot. From that moment on, we were inseparable.
Peugeot: I was the lead singer of a French punk band called "The Flaming Maggots" or "Les Asticots Enflammes" for a few years. We had a couple hit songs-maybe you've heard "Merde, merde merde!" or "Ton cul est tros grand! Va t'en, va t'en!". Then, I woke up one morning, hungover in a back alley of Paris and vomited on the person next to me, who turned out to be Renault, et voila, the rest is history.


Nagamag:
Do you remember your first connection of love to music that was the right impact to be a music artist now?

In Void:
Renault: I saw Mozart's "Don Giovanni" as a small garcon, and thought, "mon dieu, I want to grow up to be such a man! So many conquests, and set to such lovely music."
Peugeot: My dearly departed mother was a Sex Pistols groupie and so I heard their fine, skillful and passionate music every day in utero. I have sought to emulate them in thought, word and deed ever since. To this day, I wake up at 1pm every day to their masterpiece, "Frigging in the Rigging".


Nagamag:
Favorite book?

In Void:
Renault: Les Miserables, L'Etranger, Lolita, O Calcutta
Peugeot: One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish


Nagamag:
Best shag ever?

In Void:
Peugeot: Brigitte Bardot or Queen Elizabeth. Too close to call.
Renault: Lady Gaga, hands down.


Nagamag:
Most artists have a favorite song from a different music genre than the one they are producing music for... Which is yours?

In Void:
Mozart (This is Renault's pick of the week, from his favorite opera, Don Giovanni. In this aria, the servant, Leporello lists his master Don Giovanni's thousands of other conquests in an effort to "console" a woman whose heart he has just broken. The piece is very near and dear to Renault's heart, for obvious reasons.) Madamina, il Catalogo


Nagamag:
Of Course Nagamag would love to listen also which track from a similar artist you admire?

In Void:
Sex Pistols Anarchy in the UK
