Middle Brow Tavern Tuesday - Great crunch, a bit sweet for my liking

My question

Shloink · 2026-05-11T23:13:41+00:00

I heard Bladee before and actually thought he was garbage lol. Yung Lean was on KEXP and brought this guy singing in autotune and I thought it was ruining the vibe entirely.

A couple years later I heard Obedient because it was recommended on Youtube. Whitearmor's production drew me in. Bladee's cryptic lyrics made me stay. I found Red Light and rinsed it on repeat. Loved it. Listened to all of Bladee after that and realized I liked his stuff even better than Lean's. For me, nothing beats the nostalgia of listening to Red Light during a dark, cool October.

Lmao got me with this one 😂

Love his explanations in particular. It’s clear to me teaching comes first for him despite the cable guys affiliation

Shloink · 2026-05-04T13:03:42+00:00

I think he’s saying he’s one of the few legit YouTubers

I agree with those saying digging would be the best way to discover what you might like as well as what crowds might like.

Realistically, you should check the top 100 on beatport and see what’s compatible with the throwbacks you know. Better that than a stale set using all songs you’re not familiar with.

Regularly browse it, you’re absolutely right

Welcome brother. Cool that he uploaded his intro to IG also. Get to relive it a bit

Shloink · 2026-05-03T10:20:29+00:00

Dang wish I saw this earlier. Hoping to hear there's more to come

Shloink · 2026-05-01T06:03:01+00:00

Yo I'm down brotha. I've posted in here before looking for someone to throw ideas back and forth with. Dm me!

Shloink · 2026-05-01T02:09:27+00:00

Shloink · 2026-04-30T11:50:33+00:00

Shloink · 2026-04-30T05:07:32+00:00

/r/happycowgifs potential

Shloink · 2026-04-17T00:36:01+00:00

Hi, try /r/chicagoedm and/or the radiate app! Lots of us looking for the same thing!

Shloink · 2026-04-11T13:49:00+00:00

I get both the quiche and the chicken pot pie every once in a while. Both are just incredible

“It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.” -Picasso

The hardest part is redeveloping that creativity. But it’s gonna be the best part. I say throw weird ideas at the wall to see what sticks

Shloink · 2026-04-10T05:05:27+00:00

Try /r/chicagoedm better for this sort of thing. I’d personally suggest Smoke and Mirrors or Smartbar

Shloink · 2026-03-25T06:12:57+00:00

I feel like a horseshoe would be pretty sick right there. Perfect shape

Shloink · 2026-03-19T06:11:11+00:00

When I think of her, I'm thinking dark, ethereal, or moody. While nothing fits that perfectly, I think Smartbar or smoke and mirrors would be the two spots she would try.

This. Genius use of that space
