INNOVATE Toxe talks in music a a producer to watch dynamic dynamic innovative ever-changing arless fearless explosive ever-changing playful Toxe (born Tove Angeelii) has been tagged with the above, and more. Her accelerated journey from Swedish high school student to the next wave of influential DJs and producers is notable... and the journey has seemingly just begun for this emerging talent. Youth will be served! We caught up with her to ask about the role collaboration plays in her creative process. 18 FLOW OCTOBER 2018 ~
I like not knowing what to expect when starting a collaboration and I prefer to collaborate with people whose work is very different from mine, while there is still a mutual, big and humble respect for each other. Q: Obviously it's a different creative process when you're working on your own vs. working on a piece of music, or project with someone. Tell us a bit about the differences, the pros, the cons of each scenario? Toxe: The difference is simply that when working alone I can let my ideas run wild without anyone questioning and responding to it. I feel like it’s important for me to have those moments of just being an unstoppable machine printing out ideas. Q: What were those first collaborative experiences like when you were getting started? How does that compare to collaborations you're doing now? How's it changed, if at all? Toxe: My first collaborations were with online friends when I was in high school cause I didn’t know many people in the city I grew up in who were into similar stuff. So we were just sending projects back and forth and working separately. That was cool cause at that point I wouldn’t feel comfortable working on music in the same room as someone else. It was important to find and understand my own way of making music, undisturbed, at first. But I think collaborating with others really helps me grow the most, even if the outcome turns out horrible. I learn so much from letting people in, it really helps me understand myself better and what I what I want my own work to be. Toxe is a Swedish musician crafting some of the most innovative music productions on the scene today, highlighted by her distinctly unique drum patterns. Check out to samples of Toxe’s music on her Soundcloud page. I only started working with people IRL after moving to Berlin in 2017. That has definitely been the biggest difference, going from chatting online to being in the same room. Musically I still, most of the time, prefer working alone though. Q: What are you looking for when deciding if a collaboration will be a good fit? Toxe: It depends what kind of collaboration it is, but it usually becomes clear after hanging out a bit. I just look for people whose mind I really admire or whose work I love, but is something I couldn’t or wouldn’t do myself. FLOW OCTOBER 2018 ~ 19
