We caught up with Digital Farm Animals to talk about the new track, whats to come and about future plans.

Young electronic producer, writer and artist from London, Digital Farm Animals is no stranger to the club circuit. ’Wanna Know ft. R Kelly’ is the latest venture from an artist looking forward from a great vantage, the latest of London’s low-key producers to storm out from the shadows.

Hi Nick, thanks for taking the time to take to us. Whereabouts are you at the moment?

Hey! I’m in the car on the way to Gatwick airport right now.

What have you been up to recently?

I’ve mainly been camped out in the studio working on lots of other people’s projects as well as my own material. I’ve done sessions with a lot of other writers recently and was out in LA in March writing and then hopped over to Miami for UMF which was a crazy weekend. I’ve been playing out a lot too, most recently supporting Chase & Status which was a sick night.

Congratulations on the R Kelly track, that must have been a big honour to get to work with a legend like that. How did come about?

It was completely unplanned. The track was done and we we’re really happy with it and then somehow it got played to legend R. Kelly who asked for the instrumental. We sent it over and thought we’d never get anything back but within a week we he’d recorded his verses and fired it back over to us.

What can you tell us about working with R Kelly?

It was all done remotely so I really can’t tell you much other than that he’s an incredibly quick operator and his melody is mad.

What’s the summer got in store for Digital Farm Animals?

There’s another huge collaboration coming. I can’t say with whom just yet but it’s coming soon so you won’t have to wait too long to find out. The track is called ‘Millionaire’ however, so think big yachts, super models and fast cars.

Where are you most looking forward to playing?

Vegas! I love that place so I hope I get the chance to be flown out there and put up in one of the mental hotels.

I’ve heard the work you’ve done with Netsky, what’s it like working with him?

We first worked in London and really hit a vibe and then I went over to Belgium to work with him in his studio there. We had a big record last year together with “Rio” and then followed it up with “Work It Out” which is out at the moment. I’ve written a couple more records on his album so definitely check It out. It was a great experience to be so involved in an album and then really fun to go on tour with him at the end of last year and see all the tracks get played out.

Do you feel unique, in the sense that you are one of the few electronic music producers who also write lyrics?

Yeah definitely, I’m so grateful I can do both and can be somewhat self-contained with my production and writing. It means that sometimes I can go in session just as a producer and other times as a writer, but most of the time I’m doing both. It’s nice to have that flexibility though.

Thanks very much for talking to us. Where can people see you next?

We’ve got a gig at Brixton Jamm on the 30th April that we’re headlining alongside My Digital Enemy and then we’re off supporting Chase & Status again on 5th May in Cheltenham.
