Omi:I created a timeless experience for people through music
Quote:
As for OMI, he claims he knew he had a potential hit from the get-go: “To be surprised would mean I didn’t believe in the project. Neither my team or myself have ever doubted the potential or capability of this song.” And no, he doesn’t get tired of performing “Cheerleader” after all this time: “This is what happens when you have created a timeless experience for people through music. I will become tired of it when no one can attest or relate to the song.”
Can he relate to the song himself, though? It other words, does he have that special cheerleader in his life right now? “The song speaks for itself, but it goes beyond having an intimate partner: having a cheerleader [according to the 'OMI' definition] means having a support system when you need it most.”
Does the success of the “Cheerleader” remix mean he’ll have to re-record his existing songs for the upcoming album to make them more dance-oriented? “Re-recording the tracks would not be for the reason of making it more dance oriented, but to create that world music appeal we spoke of. The album is certainly going to be out in 2015,” he says.
