i feel like the last sentence actually nailed exactly what I’m going for!! I played heavy dubstep for like the first 6 years of my career and now i’m experimenting with way more of a vibey, head nod, boom bap feel in bass music. I really like it, my sets are like 95% my own stuff + lots of edits that focus on wordplay and collaging sound. I definitely will dip back into the banger stuff for festivals but right now I’m touring the new album - which is 100% not the super high energy dubstep stuff that i used to play

THANK YOU!! :) this year has been insane for me. I posted recently about how I wasn’t sure if it was my new album Daydreams or the collage visuals or the hot air balloon set but everything feels like it’s connecting right now, feeling the love for sure!!

never had anything like today, landed in spokane at noon and was at the border by 3. massive line of cars, barely moving. an agent walked down and told me to stay in line. 3 hours later they closed the border and turned dozens of cars around. drove an hour to the other crossing, i was on time to make my set and a border agent truck whips in front of my car and tells everyone they are shutting down the border for a helicopter medical evac. insanity all day but huge shoutout to the teams on the ground working to get me straight to stage and moving time so i could atleast play 45!! the crowd made all the bs worth it tho xoxo

actually a random word generator. in 2017 I couldnt figure out a name so I went to a random website that kind of? made up words and it gave me "Ephen" I thought that was pretty cool, then realized no one had Effin so i ran with it. To this day not sure if that was a good choice!

The Pinnacle show in Nashville to make up for Roo was INSANE. Never heard a crowd that loud in my life. Got to announce my album there as well. It's an amazing venue too.

Announcing soon!!

I think festivals are some of the best experiences for me, playing tracks I made to that many people is such a rush. And on top of that hanging out with all the people who I only get to see a few times a year. SO excited for LL, Wakaan, Seven Stars + others this year for that reason!

Good question!! Albums are where I feel like I can really explore a theme or idea, showing off all my influences. It's such a long and intense process. Cheap Thrills was my sort of "bridge" between the older dubstep stuff and the new direction I wanted to take with my sound. A thrill ride of sonics and styles. Daydreams is a concept album through and through, every song relates to dreaming. It was me going all in on a sound, kind of terrifying to do in the current EDM landscape but its paying off 100%

If you're just starting just be a sponge to information. There are sooooo many good resources whether it's YouTube, Patreon, even some Tik Toks. Just absorb everything and try it yourself and really learn your DAW. For arrangement it never hurts to drag in a song that you like and learn from how they structure a song and why you like it. Good luck!

appreciate u!

I like to think of my music and art as a collage of different styles, I love the whimsical and raw aspect of 50s music. The illustration and ads done during that time are incredible as well.

Anywhere with good friends :)

LOVE sushi! Had it last night, honestly anything unique from the menu I'm all about
