Hello Carter, welcome to BuzzMusic, and congratulations on the release of “Chasing Vampires (Remix).” We always love when an artist can execute a remix of their staple song in a way that doesn’t smudge the integrity, and that’s exactly what you have done with this track. What inspired you to create a remix?

The title of “remix” can be a bit misleading for this song, since other than a new bass part and a better mix the remix version isn’t a new arrangement. After releasing Vampires the first time back in December I definitely was happy with how it was sounding. But deep down I knew that it could sound even better. There were some aspects of the recording process and post-production that I had sort of rushed and knew could be fixed if I went back and released it a second time. I can safely say now looking back on it that I am so glad that I did.

What approach did you take to the remix that was different from the initial creative process?

For the remixed version, I felt that the bass part could use a bit more variety and punch. Thus, I reached out to Mark White, bassist from Spin Doctors, after connecting with him in November via Instagram asking him if he’d be down to record a part for it and send a Logic session back. He happily agreed, and the rest became pretty simple. I wanted to adjust the vocal sound and levels in the overall mix, so I sent Joe DiGiorgi, the new guy mixing it, the original raw vocals from the first session I recorded in and he was able to really bring them to another level along with the guitars, bass, and drums.

In your own words, what does “Chasing Vampires (Remix),” mean to you?

To me, Chasing Vampires (Remix) means another chance at making the song the way I want it to be, and without coming off as arrogant I can confidently say that now I don’t think there’s much more I could do to make it better. This is by far the most time, money, and effort I have ever spent working on a song, and I wanted to make sure it was the best it could possibly be for people.


We are thrilled that you have even more music on the way for us! With your album soon to be released, what can you tell your audience about the project?

Yes indeed, I am so happy to be able to share it with you all! And my album, which I’m calling Blue Reverb, is a collection of 12 songs that I have been working on since the pandemic started. I don’t want to give away too much, but I use a 1978 Fender Twin Reverb throughout most of this album, giving the guitars that twangy and distorted reverb sound. The idea of using the color blue in the album title comes from that kind of sad and upset feeling when you go through a tough time, like a breakup, a sticky situation, or a relationship. Part of this was because most of these songs were written during the pandemic, a time when the world was going through tough times. This is not to say that all of the songs are depressing and not upbeat, because most of the songs have great grooves and give off good vibes, and I think that each of the songs sounds different from each other, while also encompassing the qualities and similar styles and sounds necessary to be on an album together.
