In the new episode of Lost and Sound Paul gets deep into conversation with DJ and producer, Simo Cell. With his debut album Cuspide des Sirènes creating waves, Simo talks about his artistic process, musical journey, his UK Bass influences, and the transformative experience of birthing a full-length album.
The Paris based DJ reveals the art of harnessing different genres and the importance of 'playing with silence' to let the sounds naturally emerge. Then, around 40 minutes in it all takes a twist, their conversation delves deep into the philosophical realm as Simo talks about his encounter with Eckhart Tolle's teachings and his tryst with enlightenment. We probe into his experiences with panic attacks, the therapeutic powers of The Power of Now as well as the concept of the spiritual bypass and his thoughts on self-reflection and context awareness.
