We conclude with an exploration of her early musical influences and her most recent album, ‘ Freedom Doll’. We also talk over how she is empowering femme artists and giving them more visibility. We discuss the makings of the festival and the impact it has on the Greek electronic music scene and its community.
In our interview, Abyss X shares her experience of growing up in the huge metropolis of New York City and being catapulted back to her roots in Crete. The intimate layout of Fortuna Club – where the festival took place, the paradisiac weather conditions of the island, the mix of locals and foreigners in the crowd, and the huge variety of musical styles made the experience one of a kind. This Summer I had the pleasure to attend the fourth edition of Nature Loves Courage Festival in Crete, organised and curated by multi-disciplinary artist Abyss X.
