Electronic musician and producer Sega Bodega can be called as a key player in London’s music scene for quite some time. While collaborating with Shygirl, Coucou Chloe or Sophie, who tragically passed away last year, the co-founder of the collective-label NUXXE teases the boundaries of vulnerability in his own music. In 2021 he published his latest album called Romeo featuring ten tracks that open a window to a more recent self by breaking with the reputation in his first debut album Salvador.
I can specifically remember watching Kerrang in 2001 and Left Behind by Slipknot came on. I instantly became obsessed with wanting to be a musician. It was the opening guitar riff for me.
Yeah I’m really into sharing that, I definitely pick and choose what I share though as I wanna retain some of my own tricks. On my Instagram there’s a highlight called trix where I breakdown a lot of beats I made.
I’m all the people referenced in the albums, different sides and times of my life that end up coming out whenever I try and write an album which is usually quite a daunting feeling cause to be cohesive over a full record is something I’m still trying to figure out.
It’s more just interesting to see how people interpret them. Doesn’t make me anxious so much but there’s defo been moments where people have told me what the song is about, which can be confusing. I’ve turned to deep biblical metaphor for songs now which I find fun to write too, even though I’m very much not religious.
Luci is a symbol of a loving relationship in whatever form that comes, friends or relationships whatever that may be, a way to sum them all up in one person.
Just meeting people after the shows is a really surreal moment for me. I guess when you see how things are connected with people.
