Q: Can you tell us a bit about yourself and how your childhood impacted your musical direction?
A: I was three years old when I saw a band doing a sound check, and the sound of the drums hit me like a wave — I just knew: this is what I want to do. Drums, rhythm, dance… it all made sense.
I was born on a farm, far from any big city, and I built my musical world all by myself. Out there, you start working young. I used to come up with beats and melodies while plowing the fields on a tractor. I’d listen to music all night, then get up at 6 a.m. to milk the cows.
Fun fact: cows love Strauss waltzes — it really calms them down. But electronic music? It stresses them out. It’s kind of hilarious.
Q: How are you planning on growing your fan base and sharing your music with the world? What message do you have for anyone who is about to discover “Nervian Society”?
A: Like everyone else, we use social media and do a bit of promo. The message behind Nervian Society is simple: it’s feel-good music, nothing more, nothing less.
Q: Who is the most inspiring artist for you right now? And where do you find inspiration for making music?
A: Lately, I’ve been listening to a lot of Sly & the Family Stone. Even though their sound is truly one of a kind, it really inspires me — and strangely enough, Sly just passed away.
When I create, I just plug in the machines and let the sounds and melodies come, like a kid playing. As for the lyrics, they usually come while I’m walking down the street, on public transport, in waiting rooms… I try to catch the vibes wherever they appear.
And of course, I feed off all kinds of things — from electro, disco, glam rock, melodic punk, house, deep house… new stuff, old stuff — mostly music that’s both danceable and emotional.
Q: Can you tell us about the story or message behind the song, “Such a Daddy’s Girl.”?
A: There’s both provocation and softness — it’s like a lullaby for kids, but with a slightly dirty story behind it.
Q: How would you describe your sound in one word for potential listeners?
A: Catchy.
Q: Did you face any challenges while writing or recording “Such a Daddy’s Girl”?
A: During the writing process, no — but at least five singers tried to record the track, without success.
Then I met Alexandra Kavvadias. She had just the right mix of technique and emotion to really deliver. We worked hard together to bring the song to life and take it to the finish line.
Q: What is the message of your music? And what are your goals as an artist?
A: Above all, Nervian Society is dedicated to dance music — blending the feel-good vibes of the ’80s, Italo disco, and house, with cool, catchy melodies. It’s a true crossover.
Q: Who is your dream artist to collaborate with? (dead or alive)
A: Smokey Robinson. His voice is smooth, soulful — it’s pure magic.
Q: What is your advice for people interested in pursuing music as a career or for those trying to enter the industry?
A: Build your world. It might be rough at first, but it’ll gain style. You’re always strongest in your own zone.
Q: If you could go back in time and give a younger you some words of wisdom, what would they be?
A: Sometimes, just shut your big mouth.
