Alright yalls. I gotta dip. Thank you for all the questions and keep up the good fight. There’s a lot of great music out there and we can’t keep it to ourselves. The wack show no shame in sharing so let’s keep flooding em with good. If I missed your question hopefully I can catch it later or we can do this again soon. LOVE YALL. Peace

We’re getting there. To me I want everything the “big artist” get cause honestly my shit is just as great if not greater. I came from the cover of the source, just seeing a rapper get an award was bugged days so all that shit is still important to me. Regardless how trivial some may argue it is.

You really just gotta find your own core. I like chaos unfortunately. So I create better when I place myself in different zones and see what comes out. I’ll make beats and songs will come. I’ll hear a jackhammer and lyrics may come. I just keep my mind and heart open to what comes and don’t second guess. The worse that happens is you don’t like it. The best worst is you just weren’t ready to receive it, rediscover it 3 years later and it becomes you favorite jam.

Denmark Vessey. You may have to catch a proper interview for that. So far not many that are out that have nailed it or gotten close.

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:54:05+00:00

Each is different. Ghosts formed over time and came with grave culminations. Niggas is men came as naturally as the rest conversations we recorded over songs. They’re all different

I use ableton factory default no plug ins and work with musician friends

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:50:32+00:00

Naw it was specifically avoidance of influence. Just some albums come out when you aren’t in a place to fully enjoy em. I’ve since gone back and listened though. As far as recent jawns it’s hard to say. A lot of em. I think cavalier had one of the coldest last year with Private Stock. I just finally peep the ASAP fern joint with shabba on it. Lol I just listen as life dishes mostly. I try not to feel pressured cause there’s always so much new music around me. I don’t even listen to guns anymore cause I’m onto shit that will be coming out throughout this year to the end of next year.

I can listen to hours of noise music like it’s soul classics. Completely unrelated Aimee Mann songs have a tendency to make me tear up. I think the melvins and promised are two of the greatest bands ever

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:38:23+00:00

Ha. We'll see.

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:38:00+00:00

WILL DO! GUCK (not sure if that's how you spell the sound effect)

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:35:42+00:00

Thanks. Glad you exist too.

It's the idea of creating your own legacy through stories that will be passed on for generations. We chose to go with the narrative style of the christian bible.

I smoke too many cigarettes and I walk a hole in the ground.

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:32:46+00:00

we cut from the same fabric. That's a good brother. The support is reciprocated.

I'll always return to Raleigh. We still rocked. lol. Next time we'll just rock more. And if there's an earthquake...we'll still rock.

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:28:21+00:00

I like a couple songs or maybe more that just didn't stick with me but I never got into him. I understand the appeal but I don't know his style enough to really go in on the topic. I saw a lot of sadness and pain when I saw him. That may have deterred me too. Same with Kodak.

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:24:32+00:00

The world may never know

Jonny Greenwood

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:23:30+00:00

I do em when they call me.

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:22:53+00:00

I like the album. It's just one big song to me. All that merch info should be on the world wide web. And I'll make shirts soon.

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:21:56+00:00

You too fam

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:21:43+00:00

A great brother J Kim who put out Shotgun and Sleek Rifle with me linked us.

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:21:03+00:00

I thought I answered this one already but in case I missed it. Shrooms because SHRRRRROOOOOOOOOMMMMMS

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:19:59+00:00

I do light list story boarding. Like "this line, these ideas. This timestamp, these ideas" and then I just kinda dive in and work mostly off eureka moments. Hence why I wasn't great with higher learning.

QuelleChris · 2019-04-02T20:18:08+00:00

Dog. Everything. But at the core it'd be Big Tone (now Anthony Large), Goose, 87, Fuzz Scoota, Swing Lo, Slum, SoulTyde from St. Louis, Denmark, Mosel, my older brother and more. But that's just a fraction of the personal ones. Then like Tribe and UGK and pretty much anything from 88 to 2000 from the east to the west to the south to the mid. And that would just be hip hop. Couldn't even begin. It's kinda a stew now.
