REGI FLIH is an artist on the rise! An Australian singer, songwriter and producer who splits his time between L.A & Australia, bringing his own unique flavor to the ears of listeners world-wide. Gearing up for the release of his debut EP ‘STRIP’ in 2020, we were lucky enough to have a chat to REGI about the record, his process & what the future holds!
You recently released the single Strip, was the recording process for this different to your previous releases?
The recording process was relatively the same as my other tracks. I keep my team close, and our process is tight. The only thing different was the location.
Oh right, where did you record this single?
Strip was recorded in our Los Angeles studio.
As an established songwriter and producer – who has influenced your sound?
I am influenced and inspired by more than music. Most of my influence comes from my team, and the things I see around me. Artist wise I grew up listening to Boyz II Men, Miguel, Donell Jones and the Weeknd so different elements have rubbed off on me.
What does the typical process of creating a song look like?
Music right now is my life so my creative switch is always on, which is great as the process is ever changing. You never know what is going to inspire you.
How do you find the collaborative process?
Inspiring. I surround myself with good people. Positive energy makes for a good session.
What advice would you have for someone wanting to follow in your footsteps?
A homie of mine once told me, “not everyone is going to fuck with your sound….so stop trying to please everyone and continue to do what you love”. This has stuck with me and helped a lot in my creative process, so I would definitely pass it on.
The plug. Any shows we should know about coming up?
Just wait on it. Big things are coming, trust.
You can listen to ‘Strip’ on all streaming platforms now.
