— Hi girls! How are you doing? Thanks for answering these questions!
— Hola!! We are great! Thanks for the invitation, we are very happy to be part of this.
— Where in the world are you right now?
— At the moment we are home in Bogotá, Colombia. But we are happy to announce that we'll be touring the States and Spain in the upcoming months.
— Please, tell us more about your path in the industry. How did you start DJing and producing? And how is it for you to work together?
— Well, we are sisters and since we were little we've always been very close. It's really fortunate to be able to work together. Even though we are such opposites, we complement each other perfectly, helping our project go a long way.
Just like a lot of our colleagues, our dream to become DJs was born thanks to many years of parties. At the beginning, we started as a hobby, but it became our passion and a way of living really fast.
The truth is that after a few months playing as Dr Honey we experienced one of the hardest moments of our lives, the loss of our little sister. This marked a turning point for us and since then we decided to start producing our own songs, using music as a way of healing. We must say she became our biggest source of inspiration. Each of our songs is an expression of our feelings and beliefs.

— Your new release "Animals" soon will be out on Area Verde. What can you tell us about this release?
— We have been planning this release for a long time. The idea came in the middle of an ancestral ceremony in our country. Our spiritual guide drived us to be more attentive of the natural environment that surrounded us, which inspired us to use nature and animal sounds in the background of the song, mixed with analog synthesizers and a forceful techno kick with romantic melody, which are a major characteristic of all of our productions.
The lyrics of this song are also dedicated to our little sister, we love to record our own voices in our productions. This one is not the exception.
We are very excited for this release to be on every platform, via Area Verde, on April 15th. Can't wait for the world to listen to it. The single is accompanied by a remix by Deviu, Dj & producer from Pasto, our home city in the South of Colombia. We hope it gives you all goosebumps.

— What are you currently focusing on as an artist?
— This 2022 is coming with a lot of new things for Dr Honey. Currently we are working on new music, including some collaborations with producers we really admire. At the same time we are preparing a new show next to Böjo (Dj & Producer from Bogotá), in which we are going to show a new face of us, on the pads and with live vocals. We are working hard to grow as artists and to prepare something different for our fans this year.
— You are based in Bogotá, Colombia. We would like to know what the best places for a night out in the city in your opinion. Can you recommend some to us?
— Of course! The city is full of all kinds of places to enjoy the night. One of our favorites is Kaputt, which is relatively new.This club stood out from the beginning, bringing a different proposal where you can find various types of environments.
In case you are looking for the best sound and electronic parties with the most relevant national and international DJs, you can go to Octava, and dance until the sun rises.
If you prefer something different, Paradisco is the place to be. There you can find vinyl DJs every night.
The scene in Bogotá is definitely rising. It is clear that Colombia has become a boiling pot for artists from all over the world. Each night you can easily find electronic events for all tastes.
