Brasky had the chance to pelt Cameron Bird from Architecture in Helsinki with a few questions before their show this Thursday night at Crowbar.
It’s been more than a decade since you’ve started – what’s the biggest change in your attitude to your music?
Cameron Bird: “I don’t know that there’s been a huge change at the core. We are still the same people with the same attitude. It’s more how our music has changed with experience. We have gotten more and more into arrangement and production with each record.”
Does being Australian have a big influence on your sound?
Cameron Bird: “Without Doubt. If you make honest music, it will always have an element of your surroundings in it. The geographic isolation of Australia means that we are less worried about where we ‘fit’. “
Which albums have been piquing your interests this year?
Cameron Bird: “Metronomy’s ‘English Riviera’, Cut Copy’s ‘Zonoscope’, everything that Johnny Jewel makes.”
Bird Watching?
What’s your most memorable moment of touring in America from the past?
Cameron Bird: “Too many great memories. Touring in the U.S. is the best. I only wish we had documented our experiences more.”
Your last three albums were 67, 30, and 12 respectively on the ARIA charts. So, your next one should place in the negative. Break out the champagne. Did you ever expect this sort of success when you began?
Cameron Bird: “We never intended to play outside of Melbourne. The band was just something we did for fun. People liked it so we kept recording songs. Somehow it’s been able to sustain itself!”
Short, but sweet. Be sure to catch Architecture in Helsinki’s delicious indie-pop dancey-ness this Thursday. Sure, they’re Australian, but no one’s perfect.
