Hello, guys, how are you?
- Fine - Hi
I'm going to ask you a few questions
Some are serious, some are fun so you don't get bored
What do you remember of your first music-encounter?
Well, in my case, my first contact with music was when I was...
...I was younger...
when I was five years old... I already liked singing
I've always liked to sing
So with my parents and my brother, we record on a cassette
each one of us had to sing a song
I lied, I was 2 years old
And I sang like "la-la-la"
So that's my first memory, I'm sure that was my first music-encounter
You were so young!
It was so fun, yeah, that one.
And Javi?
Mine... I was also a little kid
But it's the typical memory, I was the kid using mom's pots as drums
I think that's my first memory
Breaking my mom's pots!
We read that Saúti means "sounds and voices"...
But how did you come up with that name?
It's a long story but we came up with it because
we have a friend in common that has African roots
And she heard our music when we were forming the band
And she said "why don't you name it Saúti?"
And we were like "what?"
"It's an african word, where my mom's from, that means sounds and voices"
We liked it and that was it.
It's good.
For you: Winter or summer?
Winter!
Twitter or Facebook?
Facebook
Would you rather be attacked by a big bear or a swarm of a bees?
The bear, it's quick, ooh! and it's done.
Would you rather be rich but a dumb football player
or a genius scientist, but poor?
The rich guy, I'd have more fun
The music you do encourage people not to worry
To "leave the bad things outside" as your song says.
Yes
Is that your lifestyle?
That's a good question.
We're usually very relaxed, but we're nerds
We work a lot, we're hard workers.
It's not a rockstar life
- Do you say "ñoño" in Argentina? - Like "nerds"
Like very hard workers
But when we're playing live we're very relaxed
But we take our music very seriously
We rehearse a lot...
We don't do drugs, don't drink alcoh- not, that's a lie
No, the drugs stuff is true!
In case my mom's watching.. Mom!
But in our job we work very hard
Which countries did you visit?
So far...
Argentina, Colombia - Argentina...
And you're going to Uruguay
And we're going to Uruguay! Yes we are.
It's our first latinamerica tour
So we decided to come to Argentina first
Aw, so sweet!
Word association. I say a word you tell me the first thing that comes to mind
Chocolate
Delicious
You? Yeah, both
Argentina
"Goma" (could be gum, eraser and more)
Sweet
Eraser
Duck
Cuack!
Park..
Ghost
Boo!
Cut!
Don't tell me "cat" because you already know what I'm going to say!
It was the next one!
Really?
Yes
Meow!
Pop
I don't know... music
- Blank.. 1 - 0 - Blank
Does the music you listen to in your life has anything to do with your own?
Some they do and some don't
Well, actually, everything is an influence, I believe
We never know how to answer when people ask our genre
I'm like, female...
Because we really can't put a label on our music
We feed our music with a lot of things
And we like to explore with a lot of things
Your own style
Yes, and we're really open to listen to everything
Right now we're listening to James Blake, a British artist we really like
And I also really like salsa, I listen a lot of it
Could you tell us some argentine words that you find funny?
- Borome - A lot of them!
There are some words that I can't say
Borome, it's a weird word...
- Pochoclo (pop corn) - Pochoclo!
How do you say it?
"Maíz pira"
And "Borome" is ugly...
It's "Birome" (pen)
Birome or Borome?
Birome. To write? Birome
Yeah! Birome, so weird.
That are so many...
Copado (awesome)
- Copadísimo (so awesome) - Joya (like "copado")
- What's joya? - You're so joya!
- "Recatate salame" - I don't know
They always scold me for saying that but...
- "Retan" - Oh, yes "retar" (to scold)
It's so weird to us "retar"
Which superheroe would you like to be?
Batman!
Robin definitely not.
I don't know
Batman
I don't know... I only know that I don't want to be Robin
If you had to listen to one song for the rest of your life, which one would it be?
Right now, "I never share to learn" by James Blake. At this point in my life
I'd listen to "La Complicidad" by Cultura Profética
This is a weird question... Would you rather to be hit by a child
or to be caress by a stranger?
To be caress by a stranger
To be caress by a stranger, woman
When you were children, what did you wanna be when you grow up?
When I was a kid... It wasn't so clear to me
But I always wanted to be an actress, always always
Me too!
Really? Nice!
So awesome! (¡Qué copado!)
I wanted to be a musician
Always a musician?
Yeah, always the same
Are you working on a new album?
- Yes - Our first album just came out
This album came out on July in Agentina
But we want to do one live
with the same songs and maybe a couple of new ones
but we want to do one live with the new format, with loopers and stuff but live
So a new version of this album will probably come out
The last question: Are you fans of something? Music, tv show, movie? anything?
Fans..
No, fan of something..
I'm a fan of the dulce de leche
Dulce de leche ice cream!
No, I'm not a fan of anything.
I'm a fan of the dulce de leche...
- Dulce de leche ice cream - Dulce de leche ice cream...
- It's a thing... - Crazy...
In my rider says "I don't play without dulce de leche"
But do they make it in Colombia?
There's something very similar
It's called "arequipe"
- But it's not the same... - No, it's not the same
As the last thing, I'm going to ask you if you could sign a photo
It's to giveaway to your fans.
Of course, yes.
I took it from your Facebook page
Nice!
Thank you so much for the interview, guys.
- No, thank you! - Thank you very much
And thank you
Thanks for coming
To our rooftop
"To our"!
I bought it!
