Imanu – “Fashion is probably my second love after music.”

Born in the Netherlands, Imanu has been given his previous name ‘Signal’. But what about his interests outside of music? We feature IMANU in our shows and tele interviews.

Runescape PKing!

I used to play and watch a lot of RuneScape content as a kid and that’s how I first discovered Dubstep.

I finally showed this track and some others from this artist to my classmates and found a small group that was into it! Just like your core imo 🙂 To have people around you who are into the same weird music

I have a great love for cooking

Heston’s deep approach is very inspiring. Analyzing the purpose and reason behind things and applying these forward-thinking processes is something I love.

Fashion is probably my second love after music.

More than clothing, I see wearable art in its content. Designers like Rick Owens and Yohaji Yamamoto are, in my opinion, at the forefront of the dark side of clothing, focusing on form, fabric and artistry rather than relying on color to bring out their vision.

Back to cooking again!

Peter Goossens is a Belgian Michelin star chef and previously had a program to interpret Belgian cuisine in Michelin star form.

I think this way of thinking can be applied to music as well, taking classic sounds like ‘Think Break’ or some Reese basses and putting them in a new light.

My own city Rotterdam!

I love it as a unique city in the Netherlands, being the only city without a classic city center (due to World War II).

A modern cityscape, a very multicultural population, fashion, amazing food and great public transport. When I get bored of one of those places, there’s always something I can do in the middle.

I am a big fan of anime

I think Code Geass is my favorite. Anime Psychological thriller, but fantasy? Just amazing to me.

I always recommend this anime to people who are into crime TV shows, especially as an intro anime to Death Note. I think both of these perfectly bridge the gap from realistic crime to the world of fantasy.

Ronaldinho is one of my favorite players.

I used to play a lot of FIFA games back in the day, but my favorite was FIFA Street. A game based on the game you used to play with your friends as a child. Doing tricks, laughing, getting mad when someone pans you – everything was inspired by Ronaldinho, who I’m sure inspired a whole generation. Infectious smile, great tricks.. what’s not to like about him?

As a child I was very into cars.

I remember my mom bought me a truckload of books when I was 2-3 years old. I was on the road pointing at the trucks and yelling, “Trucks!” I shout. (French for “truck”). I played all the early Need for Speed ​​games and my dad once took me to a RAI convention in Amsterdam. This made me look for Dutch car brands which are very hard to find! I stumbled upon Spyker a while back, and found out about the Spyker C8, and instantly fell in love.

Memento is my favorite movie of all time.

That movie Really Introduce me to Christopher Nolan. I thought that exposure to romcoms, Marvel, and Christmas movies wasn’t for me until someone told me about this movie. no

She accidentally checked it out and immediately fell in love. I started watching more Nolan movies like Batman trilogy, Interstellar, The Prestige and started loving movies again.

Other movies I’ve really enjoyed since then are the Bladerunner movies and Shutter Island.

Every Dutch 20-year-old knows something about KUD

The worst joke makes the best of the best.

Something about the Dutch language makes everything funnier than it should be. Fortunately, some of their latest work has begun to be translated. Unfortunately, I don’t think they’re going to convey the humor nearly as well. Still fun though!
