Define your genre in five words or less:
Electro-Pop-Soul-F/Punk-Hop.
What do you love about making music?
The process itself is something that will never grow old, be it collaborating, working on things alone, staying up late, meeting new people, or discovering new influences and tricks to add to your repertoire.
What do you hate about the music industry?
The fact that it is an industry, and it’s driven by money. But we all gotta eat right? Some people just like to eat more than they need.
What can a punter expect from your live show?
These days, lots of synthesizer sounds, heavy beats, an urge to dance, a few points of reflection and deep thought, and also the odd science fiction reference here and there.
Do you have any record releases to date? What are they? Where can I get them?
Trouble Being Yourself, Home, and a few miscellaneous tracks are available for free (or donation) through my Bandcamp page: snackswithyeo.bandcamp.com. Bag-O-Items, my sophomore mini-album released through the now defunct Other Tongues, is available through iTunes.
When are you playing live/releasing your album/EP/single/etc?
Saturday February 9 is the date of the party we are throwing to release the new album Sell Out. It will be at The Toff In Town and we have the help of Francolin and Dot.AY. From this day onwards, it will be physically available at selected independent record shops and through Bandcamp. There is also a digital-only option for Bandcamp purchasers.
Tell us about the last song you wrote.
Covered In Gold was conceived and completed on a 36-hour bender, across Christmas Eve and Christmas. I locked myself down at home, inebriated, and just blissed out on synths, drum machines and effects until it was finished. It is now the chosen ‘single’.
If your music was a chocolate bar, which one would it be, and why?
Flake. Nomenclature aside, my music has lots of layers and textures, all crammed in, and most songs evolve from beginning to end – but it’s all made of the same stuff.
Anything else to add?
If you come to the show on the February 9, bring your best Boogie Nights attitude/robot costume.
