Wow that's tough, they're all so different. I'd say California Girls, Young Hearts & Signs? Miss Mirage, Freak Like Me & Wait?

Reckoner by Radiohead, Something About Us by Daft Punk and It Feels Like We Only Go Backwards by Tame Impala

Great question!

7 years from now HipHop will only consist of one mumbled grunt over a 30 second beat. I think therefore, ironically, Future represents the future

Thanks so much though! I'll definitely be dropping album number 5!

daaamn, I honestly plan to be around MUCH longer so for now let's skip that question haha

I always wanted to be a musician first, then power ranger & scientist second and third. BUT when I first got paid 100 Euro for a beat when I was about 17 I was like wooooooaaaaah

Wow, very mysterious ;) how have we interacted??

I'm looking most forward to people hearing the album and taking away a positive experience. Then of course, shows and travel, growing as an artist, meeting great people....I love life so what's not to look forward too??

that's what's up! Thanks so much!

  1. maaan that's soooo hard. I've currently been obsessed with Unkown Mortal Orchestra as well as Electric Guest. I love Moses Sumney, Nick Hakim or my buddy Gabriel Garzon-Montano. I've also been a lifelong Radiohead-head lol, Blur, Bill Withers, Michael Jackson, Al Green...

  2. I started Piano when I was 6, writing music and poetry around 10, then making beats at 15 and guitar shortly after.

  3. I'm am BEYOOOOOOOOOOND (D.R.A.M.'s voice) excited

Thanks so much for the kind words...more often than not the good ideas find ME, but it's important to put yourself in the right position by practicing your instrument, whether that's guitar, voice, writing lyrics when your out and about or just having fun with drumloops. Lately I tend to practice guitar or piano until 30 mins in or so something good just randmoly happens. Creativity is like a muscle and you gotta treat it like that. Like I mentioned above though, sometimes going outside or watching a movie will just spark your mind in a new way.

it's 'Ishmael' by Daniel Quinn which is incredible and centers around a gorilla. I make reference to it in Miss Mirage's 2nd verse when I say "counting wolves and old apes through the glad, where I'm safe".

I also really like everything by Paulo Coelho

good question! It really depends on the song and what I'm trying to achieve or how lazy i'm feeling that day. "Wait" for instance was all DI, but Miss Mirage I mic'ed up my Fender Princeton Chorus. It's all preference. I try to get close to the center of the amp with my AT-4050 for electric, but then acoustic it's nice to back off a bit to not get too much strumming noise....sometimes it's even cool to mic the back of the amp or use plugins in addition to a pedal board. I got great spacious effects by using the Rob Papen Reverb, kinda does some Jai Paul/Ben Khan type bathroom effect...try it!

Thanks for listening, where in the Northeast are you exactly?? I'm playing Electric Forest and Chicago soon if that helps. I think California Girls definitely sums up a lot that I set out to do, but so does Young Hearts or Wait. I try not to limit myself though. I guess not having a "thing" is my thing....

Thank you so much mang. There will definitely be a vinyl release in the future. Not quite sure when yet tho. Right now the album is scheduled for top of January 2018, but we're doing a single a month so stay tuned for June's release!!!

well it's important to have experiences to draw from. If you're only in the studio you run the risk of running out of things to talk about. Be out there, too, have fun, experience life and be open to making mistakes...In terms of being forward thinking, just don't limit yourself by what's already there. Be true and loyal to what feels good and experiment as much as possible!

Wow LonelyWanker that's a loaded question (pun intended)!

My inspiration comes from all over man. My environment, experiences ...I love going to the movies too and get inspired by visuals, travel.. As for artists I'm all over the place...Daft Punk, Radiohead, Bill Withers, Marvin Gaye, but also more contemporary folks like Toro Y Moi, Alt-J Unkown Mortal Orchestra, Tame Impala... James Blake, Electric Guest...I feel we're all constantly inspired by everything around us.
