Degileth_OVK
THE DEVIL AND THE QUEEN OF METAL
Kitsune and I met Degileth at a very special and cozy place Themyscira.
We had some good time feeling the sounds and getting involved with the environment around us, enchanted and certainly mystical; all the time waiting for a gnome or elf to jump out of a bush, or some fairy to come to enchant us more than we were already by the presence of each other. Degileth came dressed in blah blah blah and after a few moments of relaxation we went on to the interview itself
Claire: How did it happen you turn up a DJ?
Degileth: I was a DJ in real life before joining RLC
Claire: Oh great, so you brought your expertise into RLC?
Degileth: Not immediately, On the first 2 years i started my own Club.
Claire: Ohh! You had a Club! What was its name?
Degileth: I had a dream lol and start the first metal Clubin RLC. Overkill.
Claire: Woooww! did it work well? Overkill! Nice name.
Degileth: In the beginning yes.We were a big family, the OVK, from Overkill, in the best times we were over 40. Ans I was the mom...
Claire: And they were supporting the Club... Mommy (giggles)
Degileth: We built the Club together
Claire: I see. What went wrong hun ?
Degileth: hmmmm some disputes among the people... and we work together in MM MetalMania
Claire: Ok, then you closed the Club?
Degileth: Since many people were going the Club opened again. I can show you. We built it again.
Claire: You are not the mommy any longer?
Degileth: I am one of the last OVK lol
Claire: Which types of music are you into?
Degileth: I love metal but also everything that is Rock. Music played by hand. Also Blues, Jam, Punk, Gothic and so on. And also some Pop songs.
Claire: See! I thought you were pure metal, only :)
Degileth: No. I have done also Classic Rock evenings, and Blues evenings... also ballads...
Claire: Funny how we might have biased convictions about others :)
Degileth: I have many songs. Many from my dad, who have 8000 CDs.
Claire: OMG so it is a family love?
Degileth: I have also many Pop songs, also German songs. I do not play only Metal. I love Jam evenings too.
Claire: Don't you feel sometimes your music being to hard for some ?
Degileth: No. I always adapt my music to the audience and find a good mix. It's simple when people come to me asking for a Metal evening, that they are willing to listen Metal.
When I play at other Clubs I cannot play Metal only.
Claire: What are your favorite bands/singers ?
Degileth: Metallica
I've seen them 15 times
Claire: giggles
Degileth: Arch Enemy. And many other groups. Led Zeppelin, AC/DC and so on.
I can't say only Metallica is my favorite band. I also love Blues.
Claire: Witch were the Clubs you enjoyed the most to play tunes?
Degileth: My own. Overkill.
Claire: Of course :)
Degileth: There goes people looking for pure Metal
Claire: And tell me, how different do you find RLC today, than when you started in 2010?
Degileth: Very different.
Many people are going out
Claire: And many are coming in :)
Degileth: In the beginning I was a good designer too.
Claire: woooowwww
Degileth: I was the first here with bikinis.
I sold over 8000 bikinis.

Claire: Omg that's a lot. Oh yees please :)

Claire: What would you suggest to make this world a better place?
Degileth: Oh! Many things.

We must do much more for a better environment.
We should find a way to accept the people.
Claire: More tolerant. And open to diversity.
Degileth: Yes That's what I mean.
