Your mix is very mysterious and so are you. Can you describe your session, how it was done and what should we expect from it?

It’s traktor shit with so nice tracks to listen to…it has variety and not that monotone nowadays hype music.

Nowbody knows who you are, we only know that you are “a person on a green shaded land who trans his inner mania”. What does this mean?

The idea is to try to expand your total self.

Transilmania comes from Transylvania or is just a coincidence? What’s the idea behind the name?

There is no coincidence; i live in Transylvania. Transilmania = Trans your Mania.

On your blog you have a lot of VIVA’s House TV retrospectives. Is this how you started getting the electronic music virus?

Yes, it is…starting around ’95 or somethin’…great tv shows.I used to write down every weekly show on a black notebook.

Do you have some favorite djs/producers and how did they influence you?

Hmm..soo manyyy. Let’s start with Michael Jackson and end on Bunker and Creme Organization artists.

What is you musical background? Are you also a dj / producer?

I produce music..signed with Gigolo Rec. and some other record labels.

As I already said you are very mysterious. How manage yourself on stage performing in front of the audience?

I rarely play music in clubs..so always it’s something different.

What do you think about the electronic music scene? Are you following this or are focusing just on your own projection on the music?

I only follow my favorite record labels and its artists…nowadays it’s pretty hard to find something with character,vision and originality. Each person should have its own electronic music scene..and not sold from magazines with serious design like those sites from German minimal techno artists.

The electronic music is now half of century old. Which time frame from this period is more interesting for you and when would you prefer to have lived?

I guess autumns and summers back in the 80’s.

What future plans do you have for your mysterious career?

It could be something on MinimalRome next year…I’ll let you know.

What do you listen to besides electronic music? Other hobbies, activities?

I listen lots of music…from soul to dark electronics. Wish i could travel more…i love traveling.

There is anything else you want to add or to transmit to our followers?

Yes…expand your total self !
