EMIL L’ARTISTE – „F#cked Up Piece Of Art‟ + Exklusives Interview

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

Thank you for having me! I would recommend a homemade chai if you’re listening to it alone. When you’re out celebrating with friends, maybe a shot of Willisauer Kirsch, a Schnaps from my hometown in Switzerland.

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

For shure! My next single „Little Fox“ will drop on the 11th of September. On the 29th of October I will play my first show in the Fabrique in Hamburgs Gängeviertel with my band, the Vibrant Voice Collective, I would love to see some of you there!
And of course, on November 20th, my first album will come out, it’s called F#CKED UP PIECE OF ART and it tells the story of living through a depressive episode.

More concert dates will come in 2027.

3. 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

I once heard that Michael Jackson was actually a robot. It would make „becoming the best human performer“ a much more achievable goal

4. What fashion style or brand would best describe your music?

It depends on the song. 60s hippie fashion seems like a good fit, because it’s comfortable, expressive, mostly fun and you can move in it. Or maybe something kinky?

5. Tell us more about your songs! Topics! Message!?

Because I am a human that often struggles with self love issues, pressure and depressive states, these topics quite naturally flow into my music. I try to reframe them into a challenge, something you can use for growth.
Finding love for myself and the people around me is the main goal of my art, but also to create something that just entertains and takes the pressure out. Life is hard enough as it is, so here, have something to just enjoy!

6. Beside music, do you have any special talents?

I have a black belt in Shotokan Karate, but since I started taking the arts seriously it’s gotten hard to find the time to train regularly, which you absolutely have to do if you want to get better. So I wouldn’t really count that as a talent. But I’m quite good at tap dancing.

7. Name 5 things we all should know about you as an artist?!

One: My first Instrument was the marimba.

Two: I started playing the electric bass in a thrash metal band and toured with it through Europe.
Three: After the metal band I studied Jazz in Zürich.
Four: I am trained in musical theatre.
Five: I currently also work as an actor and musical director in the theatre.

8. The road so far…. who or what was your biggest support??

My biggest support is my family and my closest friends. I especially want to thank my grandma, when she was younger, she recorded and released some beautiful albums in swiss german. In some of songs, my sister and I are featured on vocals!

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

Where do you see yourself in 5 years? On the top of the world!
