Dave Rodgers - Producer of the Nuage album which features Sonia.
Q: I really love the new track 'Never gonna let you down
and forget you' Sonia's vocals sound great! Can you tell us about the Artist Nuage as we have not heard of her in the UK, what is her background?
I discovered nuage in the late 2001, she comes from singing live in the
pubs. When I saw her i got inspired by her voice, personality and beauty.
Q: How did the involvement with Sonia come about?
It came by Avex's idea, they wanted a duet with Sonia on a Nuage
song.
Q: Had Nuage heard of Sonia before the collaboration?
I don't think so, because she's only twenty.
Q: Will the song 'I'm never gonna let you down and forget
you' be released as a single in Japan?
I don't think so... but you should ask it to Avex!
Q: Have you had much feedback on this track?
Not yet
Q: The song has a very PWL sound, is that what you had planned?
Yes, of course! I love eighties... but more the seventies!

Separately

It takes a couple of hours for both the vocals
