You know the best part about leaving is coming back. I&#8217;ve been locked in the studio all winter working a few different projects so it will be fun getting out with some PGDM tracks again.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s your favorite thing about being on tour?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>PGDM: <em>Meeting new people and playing every night. Good combo.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Can you talk about the 8 individual Movements in the album?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>PGDM: <em>The record was originally supposed to be 1 track with no breaks but we decided we should give the option to skip around.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Did you ever have the urge to title the songs differently?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>PGDM: <em>TNo, not at all actually. If we break the record up into &#8220;tracks&#8221; we can&#8217;t title them because then it would be defeat the purpose of what we are going for. We didn&#8217;t want to release singles but a full record to be listened to from cover to cover.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the main differences between Limo and PGDM EP?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>PGDM: <em>The EP was just a handful of tracks we \u00a0picked from about a dozen that we recorded one winter.\u00a0 The tracks all had there own thing and it was more synth popped. Limo has it&#8217;s own vibe. Originally, it was going to be an instrumental record (till Sabina blew us away). We didn&#8217;t go in trying to make songs, but just surrounded ourselves with Moogs, a prophet, Wurlitzer, bass guitar, drum set, sequencer, Juno etc&#8230; And whatever we had after weeks of tracking is what we would go with. Just experimented.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>I love the playful theme of your video \u201cDancing Demons.\u201d Do you have any ideas for upcoming videos?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>PGDM: <em>A 32 minute long music video directed by Antoine Wagner that&#8217;s shot here (in NYC) and in Paris. It&#8217;s the first video we didn&#8217;t do completely ourselves. It&#8217;s in the editing phase now, and it looks good.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>What are the perks of being an electronic based band?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>PGDM: <em>Hmmm, probably the best stuff we have ever recorded we have never released because it\u2019s too &#8220;out.\u201d We are saving it for a different project I guess. This band is great because it&#8217;s a collaborative project and we get to work with different people. My favorite artist\/record is probably Edan&#8217;s &#8220;Primitive Plus.\u201d We would love to step in that world next. That would be sick. Growing and getting better.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>I have to ask, what would you say is your favorite dance move?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>PDGM: <em>Copter<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pretty Good Dance Moves are about to release their new full length album, Limo, on February 7, which is divided [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3589,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,6],"tags":[14,13,12],"class_list":["post-23250","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-interviews","category-music-videos","tag-album-review","tag-album-reviews","tag-reviews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mvremix.com\/rock_blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23250","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mvremix.com\/rock_blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mvremix.com\/rock_blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mvremix.com\/rock_blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3589"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mvremix.com\/rock_blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23250"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/mvremix.com\/rock_blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23250\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":38888,"href":"https:\/\/mvremix.com\/rock_blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23250\/revisions\/38888"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mvremix.com\/rock_blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23250"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mvremix.com\/rock_blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23250"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mvremix.com\/rock_blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23250"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
