So before White part Week hits and things get so confusing as to what parties to attend, we just wanted to make Wire readers aware of this unique combination of talents that has a particular South Beach distinction. And we wanted everyone to make sure they attend this fantastic Pool Party they won't be easily forgetten!
All these characters are what makes a place like South Beach tick lie nowhere else on this planet! Here's the skinny on "Bitch Beware"! You heard it her first!
How Did You Know Each Other And How Did You Decide To Get Involved In This Project?
OREN: Basically it was Pawel and myself who hooked up first through my manager George Coronado. Pawel's been a music producer for eight years and I wanted to collaborate with him on a project. I had a specific track that's been in my mind for months and I was so ready to translate it into sound. The only person I saw who could do the vocals was Ebonee. It was so clear that Ebonee had to do it! Everything happens for a reason and this was meant to be.
PAWEL: Then we got together to try to understand what we wanted, to get comfortable with each other. Within an hour we all knew what we wanted. It was really easy communication between us. The timing was incredible. If I would have met Oren, say three months ago, I don't know if I would have been ready for it. But all the pieces were lined up and ready to go!
What Was Involved In Producing This CD?
PAWEL: We do everything together, as a team. Sometimes Oren might get more ideas, sometimes I might have more ideas. I'll be sitting at home late at night and I'll go to the studio and start working on those ideas. I'll call him the next day and tell him and ask him to come over. So we start working from there.
OREN: This is just the first track and we've been working on five now. We're ready to start shopping it around. This project, this track is our first production as a whole team. This is the next step for me,for Ebonee and Pawel.
What's The Most Exiting Thing For Each Of You Regarding This Project?
OREN: It's made me realize how much I really like the production side of innovative projects. Pawel has a lot of experience and we are complimenting each other very well. Now we are looking forward to working together on more tracks!
PAWEL: I've always worked by myself. Oren's the first person I've opened up to work with. I was always, no, my way or the highway. I took a chance and wanted to co-produce with this guy and it's working out great! I have one idea, he'll feed off of it and we'll get 10 more ideas and we'll get another track. This track is like the opening of a book. And it's exiting to be working with Ebonee - I've never worked with a Drag queen before!
EBONEE: I am the first Drag queen on South Beach to do vocals for a production! I mean, In New York you have RuPaul, Kevin Aviance, Lady Bunny and so many others. But here, we don't have anyone doing this kind of thing. I am the first one and so exited! It;s a dream come true for me, it's taking my production to the next level.
What Do You Expect The Reaction Will Be?
OREN: I hope everyone likes it! Not just because we did it, but because I observe it as a DJ. When I spin, I always look at the dance floor and I'm always looking for the specific sound that makes everybody go crazy. So if I'm going to produce something, I want to maintain the feeling on the tracks we do because I want to see the same feeling on the dance floor when our tracks are played!
PAWEL: You can't predict somebody's reaction. They'll react the way they want to react. My job is to be sure that Oren and Ebonee are the best on the scene, I am more behind the scenes. What I do behind the scene helps them to do well on the scene.
EBONEE: I don't know. I'm just waiting for people's reactions. I think people will love it! It's different for South Beach! It's good for the scene.. it's good for Oren and Pawel and the scene on the beach.
