Psychic Powers Bio:
Psychic Powers were formed in 2007 by Nik Brinkman of Over The Atlantic and Alejandro Cohen of Languis. The two met briefly in Los Angeles while Nik was on tour. They then decided to collaborate and write songs together via the Internet from their home countries, New Zealand and the United States, respectively. The main musical influences of Psychic Powers come from record labels such as 4AD, Flying Nun, Sarah, Factory, and Creation Records.
Hello, how are you?
Very well, thank you!
What are you currently listening to?
UB40 "Don't Break My Heart", Bryan Ferry "Mamouna", Naked Eyes "Always Something There To Remind Me", Sade, DJ Alfredo mixes
Can you tell us a little bit about the band name and where you guys originally met?
We were interested in the whole idea of mysticism, pyramids, mind reading and other unsolved mysteries. Psychic Powers seemed to appropriate and suitable.
It seems like you've had a bunch of material floating around online for a bit, can I ask what took so long with the debut LP?
We both live in separate countries (USA and New Zealand) so working on music over the internet definitely slows things down. The record has been finished for a year now, it just took a while to get out through a label.
What is the overall theme on "Infinity"?
"Infinity" cover a lot of ground in terms of our influences. We love dance music, we love Pop, Adult Contemporary, Disco, and Acid House. It was really an exploration of all those themes and trying to combine them in a coherent collections of songs.
Will you be touring for this release?
We hope!!!
After you've had a moment to catch your breathes will you guys be getting back to your other projects (Over The Atlantic & Languis) to work on follow up releases?
OTA and Languis are ongoing projects and will keep releasing music under those names. Neither one of us stops one project to work on the other one, they all move forward at the same time.
Where do you see yourselves 20 years from now?
Transferring song files to each other with our minds instead of via the internet. Psychic powers!!!
You can only keep/listen to ONE album for the rest of your life ..which album would it be?
I think Jesus and Mary Chain's "Honey's Dead", or Northern Picture Library's "Alaska"
Are you living your dream?
I think so, considering we have none.
Thanx Ale!
Psyschic Powers arecurrentlyalways working on new music, whether it be with this band or anything else they do/touch. The end result always being the same; 24k ear gold...
