Aphrodite Vox: „Aphrodisiac“ + Exclusive Interview

Thank you very much for your time! Before we introduce your new release to our readers – what kind of drink would you recommend to zip on while they listen to your new music?

Thank you so much for having me!

When it comes to enjoying my new release, I’d recommend sipping on something that embodies both glamour and the essence of the sea, reflecting my persona as Aphrodite.

A perfect choice would be a „Sparkling Ocean Bliss“ – a delightful blend of sparkling water or a non-alcoholic sparkling wine, a splash of blue curaçao syrup for that oceanic hue, a hint of lime juice for freshness, and a touch of edible glitter for that extra sparkle. This drink is light, refreshing, and has that fizzy element that brings a bit of the sea’s magic to your listening experience. Cheers to a captivating musical journey

Please give us an update about – new single, new album, tour dates, new videos?!

I’m excited to share what’s happening in my world right now! All eyes and attention are currently on my latest single, „Aphrodisiac,“ which was released everywhere on June 14th. This track is all about capturing the allure and magic of summer.

Looking ahead, we plan to keep the summer vibes alive with more hot and danceable sounds. You can definitely look forward to some amazing new music—I’m already busy writing new songs that will keep the energy high and the dance floors packed. Stay tuned for more updates and surprises!

We live in times of many conspiracy theories. Which, harmless, theory would you wish were true? (For example Dinos living inside Earth or E.T. living in a home in California)

Hmm the theory that mermaids exist and live in hidden underwater cities. Imagine a whole society of these magical beings living beneath the waves, thriving in beautifully illuminated coral palaces and communicating with dolphins and whales. And, of course, in this enchanting underwater world, I would have the leading role. I could transform seamlessly between my human form and a stunning mermaid, embodying the best of both worlds. It would add an enchanting layer to our understanding of the ocean, aligning perfectly with my love for the sea and my persona as Aphrodite. Plus, it would be incredible to think that every time we’re near the ocean, we might just be close to a whole hidden world of mystery and magic.

What fashion style or brand would best describe your music?

The fashion style that best describes my music is a blend of glamorous, runway-ready couture and bold, sexy outfits. Brands like Versace and Balmain perfectly capture this essence with their extravagant designs, striking silhouettes, and luxurious fabrics. I feel most at home in sexy, eye-catching outfits that make a statement, just like my music. These brands embody confidence, allure, and a touch of extravagance, reflecting the bold and captivating nature of my sound. Each performance is like a high-fashion runway show, where I can fully express my vibrant and daring persona…

My songs are all about taking my listeners on a journey with me, delving into the essence of who Aphrodite is and exploring the allure of an aphrodisiac. Through my lyrics, I aim to tell the story of Aphrodite. Like her power, her allure, and her deep connection to love and beauty. The mythological background is incredibly important to me, and I weave these themes throughout my music to create a rich, immersive experience.

In my upcoming music video, we’re planning to vividly bring this narrative to life, showcasing the mythical elements and the enchanting world of Aphrodite. It’s all about creating a captivating blend of music and mythology, inviting listeners to experience the magic and mystique of Aphrodite in a truly unforgettable way.

Beside music, do you have any special talents?

Apart from my passion for music and choreography, people often tell me I could be a psychologist because I love analyzing people’s feelings and listening to them. I also have a great love for watching thrilling movies that keep me on the edge of my seat. It’s a way for me to unwind and explore different narratives that inspire my creative endeavors!

Additionally want to say:

– Channeling Different Energy through Aphrodite Vox: Through Aphrodite Vox, I’ve discovered a different energy within myself that I adore.. This love is what I aim to share with the world through my music.

How did you learn to sing/ to write/ to play??

I didn’t have formal vocal training, unlike dance, which has been a part of me since childhood. As a male singer entering the music industry later on, I relied on natural talent. After six years of independent singing and performing, I embarked on a journey to rediscover myself, eventually finding another fulfilling career path. Despite this, I remain happy and able to grow…

Alongside this, I work as a choreographer and am now striving to establish myself in the music industry as a drag queen, aiming to represent and give voice to the queer community.

Regarding songwriting, I initially didn’t focus on it until my producer noticed my potential when he casually read some of my lyrics. Since his encouragement, I’ve embarked on several interesting projects and endeavors in this area.

A question you’d like to answer, but never been asked in an interview before?! + Answer pls

Question is: „How does your dual identity as both a male singer and a drag queen influence your authentic artistic expression?“

– My dual identity as both a male singer and a drag queen is integral to my authentic artistic expression. As a male singer, I channel my personal experiences and emotions into my music, creating songs that resonate deeply with who I am as a person. This allows me to connect genuinely with my audience through raw, heartfelt storytelling.

As a drag queen, I explore a more theatrical and visually extravagant side of my artistry. Through costumes, makeup, and persona transformation, I embody larger-than-life characters and narratives that inspire and empower. This aspect of my identity enables me to push artistic boundaries and challenge perceptions, embracing creativity without limits.

Together, these identities complement each other, enriching my music and performances with diverse perspectives and layers of authenticity. They empower me to celebrate and express different facets of myself, ultimately creating a more inclusive and dynamic artistic experience for both myself and my audience!
