Stimulated Media and Stimulate Your Soul founder Maggie Tra connected with Headlines for an exclusive interview to pick their brains about their new release, what’s next, and much more.
Tell us about your latest release and what inspired it?
It’s just a fun, dusty, chopped up jam about taking on adversity and naysayers and telling them where to go.
How did you first start in the music industry?
We released our first EP about a year and half ago. Since then we’ve been doing any and every show we can and working on heaps of new tunes.
What are you working on next?
Our second record; we're hoping to have it ready to go by the end of the year.
What advice would you give others?
Don’t sweat the small shit.
If you could collaborate with anyone who would it be?
It would be dope to rock a DJ Premier beat.
What’s your favourite studio snack?
Usually some zataar and pizzas from the Lebanese bakery and couple beers to go with it.
