Reason Artist Interview: Stromae

When "Alors on Danse" became a massive summer hit across Europe and several
other countries around the globe, many people were surprised by its overnight
success. Perhaps most surprised was Belgian producer Paul Van Haver. Now
known to the world as "Stromae," Van Haver had revived the anthemic and fun
qualities of 1990s dance music with a modern hip-hop twist. Audiences couldn't
get enough of it.

"Alors on Danse" was produced in Reason along with all of Stromae's music. The
now iconic bass line? That's the NN19. The drum beat you've probably bopped
to is coming from the Redrum. The NN-XT provides the synth hook that has
audiences numbering into the tens of thousands singing out. And in this special
interview, Stromae shows us how the track is constructed inside Reason.
