Madeon held an AMA on Reddit earlier today, where Hugo talked everything from his upcoming debut album « Adventure » to other past/future music to Pokémon!! Read a jist of Asking Madeon Anything below and read the full AMA here…
Q: Hey Hugo, been a big fan since your remix of The Island by Pendulum. Was wondering, it's been a while since you released Pop Culture, have you ever thought of doing a Pop Culture 2 with new songs you are into? Thanks for doing the AMA, love the new stuff you've been putting out and can't wait for the album.
“Actually one of the first things I decided after Pop Culture took off was to NOT do Pop Culture 2. I was really worried about the video defining my carreer and being stuck in some sort of YouTube gimmick, so I decided to move on. I still love it and play it live, and i'm amazed by how much it connected with people though, but I really wanted to focus on my own original music. It's been a few years now though, so maybe someday.”
Sorry, but if you have been waiting for ‘Pop Culture 2' today is not the day, maybe one day…
Q: Hey Madeon, what do you consider your best song?, other redditors can answer too
“Right now Pay No Mind”
‘Home' is my personal favorite at the moment!
Q: Who would you like to collaborate with? I think Madeon/Phantogram would be legit.
“That song may already exist.”
Madeon and Phantogram collaboration?!?! I need to hear this.
Q: Big fan of you Madeon! New album is amazing and haven't felt this way about an album since Worlds last year. Speaking of Worlds, I have seen on Twitter and through photos that you and Porter are fans of each other. Any chance we could see a collaboration in the near future of you two? I imagine many fans such as myself would flip out :D. Anyways, thanks for your time and enjoy reddit!
“Porter and I have been talking more often recently, about music in general. Would love to do something someday.”
Wait… First Phantogram? Now, my favorite person in the entire world, Porter Robinson, I do not know if my body is ready, but I pray this happens.
Q: Squirtle, Charmander, or Bulbasaur?
“Salamèche”
That is “Charmander” in French, the argument is over. Charmander >>> (Squirtle > Bulbasaur)
These were only a few of my favorite questions fans asked Hugo, feel free to scroll through the rest of the AMA as we patiently wait for « Adventure », now available to stream on iTunes!
