Who inspired your musically?
SOS: I think the artists that inspired us most as Sound of Stereo are the pioneers of electro; I have vivid memories of seeing Digitalism playing in Cairo. Those were the first electronic tracks that got pretty much mainstream and led the way to what is here today. Also...
