I got the chance to talk with an up and coming producer, DJ and musician name Gromo and talk about his new music and creative style! Gromo's singular sound explores the intersection of hip-hop culture and dance music of all shades, a genre-less approach he's developed since debuting his first original singles in 2016. His early string of breakout independent releases captures his eclectic, future-bound style in full: electronic rhythms blending with rap swagger, sensual R&B melodies and richly textured production, all while rooted in his rock and metal background. Listen to our interview to hear his perspective on music, creative workflow and style.

I talked with the bassist of Oceans of Slumber Semir Ozerkan about their new album, creative music and the one thing he can't live without. Launched via 2013's Aetherial debut, but truly blossoming upon the arrival of vocalist Cammie Gilbert for 2015's Blue EP and the following year's Winter full-length, Oceans Of Slumber re-emerge in 2020 with the weight of expectation bearing down on their shoulders. The result is their self-titled release, an album that masterfully redefines the band's sound for a new era while bringing their conceptual core into sharper focus. Sonically spectacular and proudly melodramatic and yet vulnerable and intimate, these new songs represent the commencement of the next stage in this remarkable band's evolution.

ATTENTION! There is swearing in this podcast episode. I talked with Benji Spoliansky from Not a Toy. We talked about their creative workflow, style and thinking behind the project. Not a Toy is NOT a band. It is a collective of four creatives, Branson Hoog [lead vocals], Jeremy Marmor [guitar], Benji Spoliansky [drums], and TJ Wessel [violin, keys]. Not a Toy does NOT fit into a genre. Rather, the quartet crafts whatever it wants and goes where the music takes them. Not a Toy does NOT just make music. These four creatives also make their own clothes, artwork, and videos. Not a Toy is NOT playing around. No, they have big and bold ambitions on their 2020 Fearless Records debut EP.
