- Diego when I had the idea of making the band?

My name is Diego, I am known as Elf and Will Champion is my solo project, the first ideas were as for the years 2006 but began to shape the project in 2007 to
start playing live in the years 2008.

2 - As a solo project as it does in the live shows?

I have musician friends who are very generous in playing my songs are friends of the hardcore scene for many years and have a stable, playing well and gone to Brazil and Brazilian musicians have joined in February, also friends, here in Argentina is the formation stable but if I travel to another country may very little variety.

3 - Getting to another country and find the musicians? Makes contact before you go?

The only experience was in Brazil and if we made contact before the Internet and passed the items to be there.

4 - And Criation of the issues, make them yourself?

If the compositions I have done and the kids help me make arrangements to the songs.

5 - Why do a solo project? No more bands like normal?

Is that in my previous bands do not contribute much to the composition of subjects and on the other hand was writing songs that may not be my style anterirores bands, then you better make my issues without prejudice and without having to leave them sideways, Otherwise, adding to the disks.

6 - What are the influences of the band?

I imagine that everything that has influenced me in hardcore over the years but there are also new issues that come influenced by issues more pop in the vein of 80s and 90s, is a bit of a mixture of my tastes, there are issues with great very hardcore strength and quiet but much more emotion, more than anything I talk about the album coming soon, on the first disc is noted but the hardcore influence, such as personal tastes I can name the old school like 7 Seconds, Minor, Uniform Choice , Slapshot and more modern bands within the hardcore but I do not think at this point are influenced both in new issues, new compocisiones are more quiet.

 

7 - quick answers:

4 bands nacionais: DAJ / EDO / New Ethics / Massacre
4 international bands: 7 Seconds / Slapshot / Cro-mags / Terror
A book: a revolutionary plan of operation (Mariano Moreno)
Quote: The artist knows what he does, but worthwhile to jump the barrier and do not
know.
1 cd: 7 seconds "walk together rock together"
We spare time I have very little but I am with my daughter, going to movies or travel.
Hardcore: Hardcore is something really hard to describe, something you feel deep down, that helps you express your thoughts, that helps you get what unotiene within, so much emotion and adrenaline and is what helps me fight against an unjust world, I feel totally confident and happy to have known this style of music and life

8 - What is the importance of family in the hardcore?

I think one is forming friendships over the years that enlisted in the hardcore scene and these boys and girls may see them more often than his own family as
cousins and uncles then goes in a circle, a friendship with people you feel something like you and from there have come at least in my friends of many years, I
believe we should respect and know that we all come from different places with different customs and then if we understand the bond of friendship that turns into a family , about my not need to be friends with all the boys and girls who go to shows and listen to hardcore but I respect and I like to share that feeling in
recitals or watching a band.

9 - and the scene of Buenos Aires, you can say? He speaks three positive and three negative points of the scene:

The scene of Buenos Aires at the time was very large, many people playing and doing shows and many people attend the shows, then there were times of little people and also a lot but never in the early 90s, there was a large peak people between 2007 and 2008 as well, but the important thing is that the things we always knew we maintain and support the hardcore scene a long time. With regard to negative and positive points I can say that now the scene is a little smaller than before and the guys from now we will only show if not also do other things, then asitencia to show is not always good, very good bands , an international level I would say, nothing to envy to bands with good ueropa U.S. and Equipment and other great songs that newly Begins or not taken as enserio this, but the important thing is that there room for everyone, which tear recently or not so professionals learn from the journey made by other bands and those who are at a very good level to keep growing because they deserve it for dedication and good musicians believe that with a little crowd of people over the show would be very good, important is moving, making things, not sit still.

10 - always hear a lot from the 90s in Buenos Aires, which bands you remember this time that no more are in the active?

I think the courts pillars bands DAJ - BOD-NDI - edo and active minority. DAJ NDI had a meeting and also, never BOD meetings and active minority is still
playing, they never stopped and now is playing denuevo EOD is good for bands that made the early over here from playing.
