So then, what’s the band name and what do you ‘do’ in the band?
I’m a rapper/dj/producer/audio engineer and I do all of that live as well as in the studio.
What do you reckon people will say you sound like?
Weird, new, trippy & a bit of a mix between Flatbush Zombies/Underachievers & Kid Cudi.
What do you love about making music?
It’s my release. It’s that place where I can channel all of my energy and thoughts into something beautiful. Something that others can relate to and something that is an entire expression in colour and sound of the vibrations I’m emitting.
Everyone needs a personal release like that, for some it’s sport, for others it’s perhaps painting. For me, it’s music right now.
What do you hate about the music industry?
The lack of inherent support given, both from within the industry, from governing bodies and from those around you. Be prepared to be totally self-motivated and to only have yourself to rely on. There’s no one there to hold your hand along the way. Also, I’ve seen it turn genuine people into having enormous egos. Just be you, don’t let the limelight f**k with you.
If you could travel back in time and show one of your musical heroes your stuff, who would it be and why?
That’s such a hard question to answer. I don’t feel like I’d need to go back in time. If I could show Kid Cudi my stuff and my vision, that’d make my life. I feel like he’d just get it. Not everyone does when it comes to the trippy stuff that flows out of my brain, but I feel like he would.
If I had to travel back in time though, it’d be Jimi Hendrix. We’d take some acid together and listen.
If you could assassinate one person or band from popular music, who would it and why?
Hillary Clinton and/or Donald Trump. Oh wait, music. That Crazy frog for obvious reasons.
On the real though, i’d just prefer to spread love and show them the light instead.
What can a punter expect from your live show?
A trippy musical journey based around freeing your mind, letting go and letting the music fully consume you, your vibrations and your energy from start-finish. There will be turn up. There will be turn down. It will be wavy.
What have you got to sell CD-wise?
I have a few copies of my debut 2015 EP Fluorescent Connections which will be for sale, plus a range of fashion items that my team and I have designed based off of the music. My new record Free.Mined though is available for free on all streaming services.
Anything else to add?
Taking my music on the road for the first time has been amazing. Massive thank you to everyone that came and vibed in Brisbane, Canberra & Sydney. I really can’t wait to finish it off with a killer Melbourne hometown show. Spread love.
