Father Dude – Eyes On You

artworks-000162211699-7t47bq-t500x500

Father Dude is a name I am very familiar with. He threw a Nintendo Wii controller at my tv and broke it…I blame his condor-like wingspan. Anyywaayyyss…  Not long ago I posted one of his tunes. I dubbed him as the windpipe of Jesus on that post… Well my friends, the windpipe is back!! With his first single off of his upcoming EP called “The Balance” which is scheduled to be out on June 10th. So obviously be on the lookout for that shit. Today we bring you “Eyes On You” (easter egg note, the track is produced by Infuze so you can guess already that it’s going to bang your eyelids off) Here is a quote from the dude himself.

“Eyes On You’ is an ode to the everyday 21st century voyeurism we all experience.  To exist online is to expose oneself.  We desire to lurk but from a distance and without repercussion while knowing exactly what it’s discomfort feels like.” 

He used my favourite word. LURK. So lurk below ya’ weirdos.

Screen Shot 2016-05-09 at 7.15.36 PM

I been getting a plethora of Rihanna remixes. Most of which I do NOT post. Most of which are horrible and most of which should get sent back to the zit riddled nerd that sent them to me in the first place for further contemplation as to what NOT to do with a song. This is not the case. Peep below and enjoy the homie Laibert’s hard work…work…work work work work….. something something dirt dirt… ok , ok. I will stop now.

Got this rnb tune today. I dig it. The singer doesn’t suck and even though he sings falsetto he isn’t copying the Weeknd. JOY!. Amen for that…

Music At The View: ShermGerm Interview

Music At The View 2016 is just a few short days away now, in Tonasket Washington. The 3 day long music festival runs from May 20th – 22nd. In anticipation of the festival we’ve reached out to a couple of artists who we are most excited to see perform this year for interview.

First up is Seattle based Trap & Experimental Bass Producer and DJ ShermGerm. In the short time we’ve been familiar with the artist his catalog has stood to impress. Numerous uploads of what can be said is his signature sound of Trap and Experimental Bass. Elements of Grime, even Glitch-Hop, and an audibly clean Hip Hop influence all add to what is #GermTrap For promo, and plain overall hype purposes ShermGerm has hooked up an exclusive promo mix made up of almost entirely original material along with some words so we can all do the get to know.

Can you talk a bit about how your listening habits grew into your productions style? i.e. Who you were listening to early on in Electronic music, or mentors, or previous projects x bands?
It really started with oldschool hiphop beats back when I was like 8 years old. Groups like Beastie Boys, Tribe Called Quest, Gang Starr, Gorillaz really set me into my beat making ways. The first electronic music i discovered was Daft Punk and that took me down the path of Aphex Twins and other trippy producers.

Do you have a favourite venue in Seattle, and or one you recommend to newcomers to the city?
I think Q night club is holding it down right now, also Moneky Loft & Club Sur always comes threw with good vibes.

Is this going to be your first year performing Music At The View?
Yes it will be my first time playing here. I couldnt be more excited to make new friends and share my music with new ears.

Are you planning on spending the weekend at the festival?
Yea I’ll be camping out all weekend, come find me and chill.

When your camping (like many attendees no doubt will be), what are some of the essentials x simple pleasures you pack for yourself?
I keep it all down to one backpack, I bring water, snacks,a few prepared meals and thats it. I dont bring much of anything for personal entertainment.

From the perspective of an attendee, what makes a memorable performance from and artist at a festival?
Hearing music I have never heard is what stands out most for me. I like hearing new sounds and styles.

Quick on the subject of the Soundcloud peerage where do you stand? Have you begun migrating your catalog to other platforms as of yet?
I really only upload to soundcloud right now, I’m working on getting more music up on bandcamp though.

What have you got in store for the remainder of the year?
I’m finishing up 2 EPs right now for some summer releases. I’m also planning out all my upcoming shows, this summer is gonna get busy and i cant wait to share my music along the West Coast!

Care to sign this off with an quotable quotes, words to live by, or shout outs?
Make music out of love!

Ark Patrol – Soirée

Screen Shot 2016-05-08 at 5.35.40 PM

FUCK!! FUUUCCKK!!! Took me ten damn minutes or so to figure out how to put that stupid little french accent thingy on top of the E in their name… How ridiculous is that? Thank god the music is good and managed to keep me relatively calm during the process.

Here are some words from Ark Patrol about this jammyjam

“I think the stand out thing about this release is it’s articulation without any lead vocals and how it tells a subtle and quiet story. I’d like this track to refresh someone’s day. Perhaps to relieve some stress, remind them things will be alright.” – arkpatrol

Pasha – Is It Love??

Screen shot 2016-05-08 at 8.30.34 PM

The old-school is strong with this one. Out of Bærum, Norway with a near perfect balance of new school Rap & Hip Hop etiquette and the respect and tastefulness of the old school on his new record entitled ‘BODEGA’ . ‘Is It Love??’ appears last on the release but perhaps is the best showcasing of his old-school abilities. Listen to the full album and do the get to know.

Zanski – Into You

Elle_Artwork

Canada man Zanski joins Monteal’s SAINTWOODS for his latest masterpiece. ‘Into You’ is written, produced and sung by the 22yo youngster. Yet another testament to Canadian talent. File under R&B x Soul, lyrics & stream below:

I don’t even know what to say, and i don’t even know what you’re doing. Walk me through it cause i’m clueless. All i know is i’m falling for you, you get me higher than i’ve ever been. One look and you pull me in.

I hope you understand that I’m into you. I don’t care if you know now. Kiss me until i forget my name.

I know that you’re a little reckless; You drive through the city just to feel alright. I know the life you play up to make you feel safe, but you pushed it away when you told me to take your hand and fuck with you, and to trace your lips and follow through.

I’ll make you feel alive again, because I’m into you.
