Could you introduce yourself please?
HEY, THIS IS DONNY FONTAINE FROM HYPER CRUSH. REPRESENTING FOR PRESTON MORONIE AND HOLLY VALENTINE, MY BAND MATES.
How did you begin?
ME AND PRESTON STARTED MAKING MUSIC WHEN WE WERE 17. WE STARTED MAKING BEATS AND FREESTYLING.AT FIRST. THEN WE GOT SERIOUS AND WE STARTED BUYING EQUIPMENT. WE FORMED A HARDCORE HIP HOP GROUP CALLED WOR MACHINE. ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO ME AND PRESTON DECIDED TO START A SAVAGE HIP HOP/ELECTRO/DOO WOP PROJECT. WE DECIDED TO HAVE A GIRL SINGER SO WE ASKED OUR HIGH SCHOOL FRIEND HOLLY TO JOIN. EVER SINCE THAT WE HAVE BEEN GAINING ALOT OF MOMENTUM IN THE LOS ANGELES ELECTRO SCENE.
What are your influences?
OUR BIGGEST INFLUENCES ARE THE SMITHS, RADIOHEAD,SUBLIME,DAFT PUNK,AFRIKA BAMBATA,NEW ORDER,WU TANG,METALLICA,THE PRODIGY...
What's you background culture?!
IM WHITE (SWEEDISH AND JERMAN), PRESTON IS FROM THE PLANET WADERRPULZE AND HOLLY IS FROM THE JUNGLES OF CHILE.
Do you work with another artists?
YEAH WE WORK WITH ALOT OF FELLOW ELECTRO ARTIST IN THE LOS ANGELES AREA. WE PLAY SHOWS TOGETHER AND COLAB ON TRACKS.

Do you think you could come in France in order to mix for us?!
YEAH WE WOULD LOVE TO! WE WANNA TOUR ALL THROUGH EUROPE.
What do you think about french scene?
SOME OF THE GREATEST ELECTRONIC MUSIC HAS CAME FROM FRANCE. WE LOVE ALL OF IT. FROM DAFT PUNK TO JUSTICE.
I have seen there are many bands like you, oldschool style seems to be very fashion now, do you have a kind of philosophy as well?
KINDA. THERE ARE ALOT OF BANDS THAT ARE LIKE RETRO AND ELECTRONIC BUT NOT ALOT OF REAL HIP HOP MIXED WITH ELECTRO. BUT IM SURE THERE WILL BE ALOT SOON.
Let me know what sound or artist you could choose to wake up, to make love, to eat, to party....
LATELY I HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO MGMT. THEY ARE INCREDIBLE. WHEN I WAKE UP I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR SOME BOB DYLAN. WHEN I MAKE LOVE MAYBE RADIOHEAD. WHEN I PARTY I LISTEN TO JIMMY BUFFET OR MAYBE RICK ASLEY.
What projects have you ?
WE ARE CURRENTLY WORKING ON AN ALBUM WE WILL BE RELEASING OURSELVES. HOPEFULLY IT WILL BE DONE IN A FEW MONTHS.
