Tell us more about the single, how did the idea come about? Your new single is the hot party summer track ‘Samba’ which reminds us of the 90s hit „Samba de Janeiro“. Tobi: But of course there are very special moments like hearing your own song on the radio for the first time or playing in front of a huge festival crowd and everybody is singing along your songs. So it’s always a process and we grow with it.
Greg: Actually we never really came to that point, where we thought „wow, now we’ve made it“ because we believe, if you think you’ve made it, you will stop trying to become somebody. Is there one moment with your music which stands out the most? Perhaps the first “wow, we’ve made it” moment? You’ve already achieved some impressive successes with your music winning numerous gold and platinum awards. We always say „it’s all about You, not us.“ So it’s about the people in front of the stage, the people listening to our music and for everybody who likes to be a part of our journey. Tobi: When we were looking for the right name for our artist project, it was a really long brainstorming process and in the end we came up with that name because of the message behind it. How did you end up with the name “YouNotUs”? After that night we started our artist project together. Greg got a call from his boss and got fired. We ended up working on the song together for hours. I was just producing a track and told him to come in and listen to what I did for a second. Before that day we saw each other a few times at our university, so when Greg was standing in front of my door I was surprised to see him delivering the pizza but we instantly connected, because we knew we were going to the same university and we were both music enthusiasts. Greg was a pizza delivery guy and Tobi ordered a Pizza.
Tobi: The story how we met is actually pretty funny. Moving to berlin was probably one of the most important steps in our career, because there we met each other and the team we are working with today. And when we were older, we started to dive into electronic music, DJing and producing. Greg: We always wanted to make music, so we were always playing in bands when we were kids. We would describe our sound as something between Dance and House with a lot of influences of the 90s. We live in Berlin, Germany and we are DJs and Producers. So, we are Tobi and Greg and together we are YouNotUs. Please can you tell our readers a little more about you? How did your journey in music start, what were your influences growing up and who/what inspires you now? Being that this is your first interview with us.
