  • Sumale Transports Listeners to the Mechanisms of Their Being With Song, "Conductor"

    Los Angeles born Erik Sumale, affectionately known as Sumale, has been composing Electronic and Hip-Hop grooves for the past few years. He was inspired early on in his life by his father who would play the old school classic hits from the '70s, 80's and '90s that would in turn give him the motivation he has today to be the rising star he is. Sumale has a passion for experimenting with sounds and a desire to create his own lane in the realms of EDM and Hip-hop. His bubbly single, “Conductor,” takes us on a sonic voyage that is unique to Sumale and his listeners. “Conductor,” is an instrumental composition that zigs zags through a variety of tempos and components on the Electronic spectrum. With this entrancing song being under three minutes, you are very easily lost in the futuristic soundscape that is painted for you by Sumale. A lively and vivid tempo is set from the moment the song starts to when it ends. It instantly transports you on a journey through the creator's mind as its definition is left to the interpreter. With an up-tempo canvas Sumale paints on, his ability to shine a light on the minor details is truly outstanding. One would not understand the numerous components that Sumale uses at first listen but after diving deeper into the production you are face to face with all of the mechanisms that contribute to the enticing masterpiece that Sumale calls, “Conductor.” As a work of art, you can hear the care and effort that went into this creation as it fills your speakers and headspace. Sumale has a knack for allowing his bodies of work to tailor to each listener on a personal level as they define the likes of it themselves. Sumale is destined for greatness as long as he keeps his creative cap on tight. Hello Sumale and welcome to BuzzMusic. We would love to know, what does this single means to you as the artist? Hello and thank you! "Conductor," along with the rest of the 'Pulse' EP, means a lot to me and it stands as a pivotal moment in my career as an artist. I had so much fun diving into my synthesizer plug-ins and being able to work with my mixing/master engineer, Louie Ramos, to push for a heavy sounding record but maintain the catchy groove. The responses I have been getting on this track from my followers on social media have been amazing! I'm really glad I rescued this session after I shelved it almost a year ago! I love everything about this record because it represents all the hard work that went into redefining my sound. What would you like listeners to feel or take away from “Conductor,” when they listen to it themselves? I would like listeners to feel content when they play this record and be transported into my world for a bit. Perhaps even a sense of nostalgia when it comes to the signature sound I achieve with my synthesizer plug-ins. As a kid, I have always been intrigued by the sound of the synthesizer and every time I experiment with the sound design it takes me back to some of my favorite sci-fi films like Encounters of The Third Kind, Terminator 2...the list can go on! I've always appreciated what films, in general, have done for me when it comes to escapism. With this record, I wanted to provide that same journey and escapism with rhythmic sound and gritty synth action. We know how everyone creates differently. How does your creative process vary when creating Hip-hop versus EDM? Very good question! When it comes to hip hop finding a good sample is key!. Years ago I was being coached long ago by one of my best friends who is a hip hop producer and he helped me with my listening skills when it came to finding a catchy sample from the vinyl records I would play. It's like finding a needle in a haystack but once I find it I experiment with the tempo and chop the sample up into a groove that sounds like my own. From there I lay down the drums, bass, and vocals(if any) from the original record. My last EP, 'Return to Monstro City,' showcases how far I have come with my sampling technique. Now, when I dive into EDM I focus on the lead synth sound and groove. I spend a lot of time experimenting with the sound design and cycling through different presets and seeing what all the knobs do to the melody I create. I'll admit, half of the time I am just turning knobs at random without really knowing the science behind what I am doing but at the same time, I love that because it keeps me from being too technical with my approach to electronic music. Once I achieve the synth sound that I want I lay the drums and bass down and tie the whole groove together! What headspace were you in when you created “Conductor?" When I revisited the session for "Conductor", I was in a really bad creative rut. I decided to take almost two months off from social media and limit my interactions with family/friends. I was feeling very insecure about my sound and where I was headed as an artist. Listening to the original session of "Conductor" I could hear and even remember how much fun I had creating the groove. That is when I realized that I needed to go back to the fundamentals and remind myself to have fun when creating music. It also helped me realize that I already had a signature sound and the next step was to redefine it. What stands out to me with this record is the switch up in the drums and melody. When I first started making electronic music I focused on the layers of sound and continue to build from the same drum pattern and bass groove. With "Conductor" I decided to stray away from adding too many layers and really just hone in on the synth and drum action and by adding that switch-up in the arrangement I was able to keep the energy of this track going without it sounding too redundant. What has been keeping you inspired in 2020? What can we expect to see next from you? This new direction in my sound has me excited for future projects! I'm very fortunate to be surrounded by an awesome community of producers and close friends that continue to show support and excitement for my musical journey. I'm excited to continuously become a better version of myself and share my sound with the world! As for what's next... I do have an E.P. lined up for next year in which I sample vocals from videos I took years ago. I was pretty much the official videographer when it came to hanging out with friends and the adventures we would get into after we graduated high school. From those videos I began to find funny phrases that some of my best friends would say or a random stranger, I sample them a repurposed them as vocal hooks for the tracks. What I like about this project so far is that in some of the tracks I blend the hip-hop and electronic elements together. Looking forward to releasing this EP next year!

Hello Malcolm A and thank you for joining us at BuzzMusic. Congratulations on the release of, “I’m Just Sayin.” Could you please take us into the creative process for this charismatic record? For this song, I just thought back on things that I've experienced in different relationships. It was weird writing the female talking parts, but I just sat back and thought of the things I've been told before. What does “I’m Just Sayin,” mean to you on a personal level? I write all of my own music, so the track is very personal to me. I know many people can relate to the song from both male and female perspectives. What would you like listeners to take away from this record? For the males, you should never give up your hustle and grind.  Just make sure you put that time into your relationship, so your lady can feel involved. For the ladies, just understand that you man has to hustle and grind. Try to be understanding and supportive of his dreams and career. We would love it if you could please take us into what the studio session looked like for the making of, “I’m Just Sayin?" I had a vision that I wanted someone with a British accent to talk on my track. I found her, wrote the script, and got that back from her. I took to my guy Dee Day and he added her to the track. I zoned out and pretended like I was currently arguing about my situation with a past relationship. Trying to explain to her that I'm not in the streets messing around. I'm out there hustling to better us. What has been keeping you inspired in 2020? What can we expect to see next from you? Just the reception I'm getting from my music keeps me motivated. There's no better feeling than hearing someone quote one of my songs or seeing their reaction to a punchline I have. I have a new song called "No Panties On" that's out now, and I have a video for it coming out very soon. I have a few more visuals that I scheduled to record soon. After that, I will release the full album called 'I'm Just Sayin' on 1.1.21. Instagram Website #BUZZMUSIC

  • "Don't Let Anyone Put You Down" With Athena Kennedy

    Thank you for this interview today. What have you been up to lately? I have been working on a new song called ‘EDEN’ that will be coming out early next year! I also have been working on a new Christmas song that’s coming out soon! What's a good rule you've learned about your industry? Follow your gut and don't let anyone put you down. I love the music industry but it's full of pricks and I have dealt with my fair share. It’s almost like a right of passage, but it's still annoying; especially being a woman. Any hobbies you would like to pick up? I want to learn how to blow glass! I have dabbled in it but I’d like to explore it some more. When do you feel most creative? When I am gut-wrenchingly sad. I make my best music with heartbreak. One thing most people would be surprised to learn about you? I’m honestly a pretty open book. But if I had to say anything, it’s that I’m a bookworm. I love reading and I wish I had the time to do more of it for pleasure. instagram.com/Athxnaofficial facebook.com/Athxnaofficial twitter.com/Athxnaofficial Interview done by: Bsquared MGMT

  • Joshua Blane Brings a Deep and Dark Mood With His Powerhouse Hit, "Devil In The Dark"

    From Southern US to Los Angeles, the Electro-Pop Artist Joshua Blane releases a mighty tune just in time for Halloween with his latest hit, "Devil In The Dark." Always seeking to bring carefully crafted Pop music to the stage, Joshua Blane draws inspiration from his experience as an LGBTQ+ artist while portraying queer lives through his sound's magnetic Pop feel. With his recent single "Devil In The Dark," we're blasted through the song's thrilling atmosphere with help from dark-infused Electro-Pop production and Joshua Blane's natural charm and charisma while he sings desirous and playful lyricism. Each verse Blane takes us through is incredibly gripping and sultry, painting vivid images of lust as the nights begin to get colder. "Devil In The Dark" begins with haunting church bells, adding a darker texture to the song, perfect for this spooky time of year. Once the thrilling bassline appears through powerful synths and their meticulous arrangement, Joshua Blane powers through with his melodic and poised vocals singing a sensual story of needing someone's touch. While Joshua Blane continues singing with the utmost dominance through his playful and lustful lyricism, the supporting production perfectly supports his raw tone with help from exhilarating Electro-Pop production that exudes nothing but heat. We love the entire mood and atmosphere that Joshua Blane has captured with his powerhouse hit "Devil In The Dark," as we're left adding this song to the top of our Halloween playlist. We're grooving away with your lively and powerful single, "Devil In The Dark." What inspired you to write a song with a darker and sultry tone? I really wanted to put out something around Halloween that was a nod to the season without being obviously themed. I love dark pop and it seemed fitting to lean in this direction with the lyrical content and production of the song given its release date. I know 2020 has been labeled as "canceled" by so many, and I definitely want to reiterate that I hope everyone is staying safe - but I am so used to the Halloween season being full of parties and nights out that I wanted to provide an energetic pop song that was totally dance-worthy for people to jam out to at home since much of the nightlife has been put on pause. How long was your single "Devil In the Dark" in the making? Did you create this song somewhat recently, or was this a hidden archive that was perfect for this time of year? "Devil In The Dark" was such a last-minute decision in terms of production. I actually wrote it about a fling I had that ended up going nowhere. I was on the phone with a friend saying that I always end up feeling like "the bad guy" for wanting someone who puts in the effort. I know it is somewhat of a cliche, but I had never written from the perspective of me being the problem. I loved the idea of making myself the villain in my own story and thought "If I could pull this off, it would be so fun to release for Halloween". I texted the producer I have been working with that I had this idea stuck in my head, and on my way to the studio, I just started taking voice memo notes on my phone. By the time I was in front of the mic I had the entire song ready to go. It NEVER works that way, where a song comes out instantly, but everything just kind of magically lined up this time and I am so happy it did. Within your single "Devil In the Dark," you offer such descriptive and detailed lyricism that depicts quite sensual scenes. Would you say this is an easy process for you, writing lyrics that stimulate the listener? First off, thank you so much for that compliment! I feel like each song is different - some of them are instantly there, some of them start with an idea that you have to find the right words for, and some are a complete struggle to write. I feel like because I am one of those old souls that still loves poetry and some of the great pioneers of songwriting, it is easy for me to write lyrics that tell a story. I consider myself a pretty sensual person, so I enjoy tapping into that side of myself to get the right imagery across my lyricism. It is that way with all songs for me. You have to be able to tap into whatever emotion is behind it for you to get those really great lyrics out. For "Devil In The Dark," it wasn't enough to just have a pulsing beat and driving synth chords, I wanted the lyrics to take the listener on the lovesick journey that I was going through as I wrote it. I hope that people hear it and not only love the fact that it is an energetic song but also love the lyrical image it paints as well. Speaking on the entire production within your single "Devil In the Dark," did you have any help forming the song's production? How did you create the piece to offer such an irresistible atmosphere through your thrilling sonics? I work on every aspect of every song I write and I am so proud of that. I know it is the very industry to have a team that helps you write, record, produce, etc. but the entirety of my music is just done between myself and my producer, Daniel Garner (aka Aurient). We met a couple of years ago through a mutual friend and when I found out he was producing his own stuff, we made plans to link up and see if we could create anything together. All the songs I have released (and the many more that are currently in production) I have had the pleasure of doing together. Typically the process for us works really simply: I have a concept for a song or some lyrics in mind that I bring to him. Together we run through my ideas and decide on the best direction to take the song by messing around a bit in the studio (this is always the experimental fun part). Then once we decide on where we want to go, I edit all my lyrics to get a final version of the song and we sit in the studio together and work on the production. Daniel is an INCREDIBLE listener and there are times when I don't even finish my sentence before he already is working on my suggestions because he just gets me so extremely well. The best part about our work is that we have this agreed stance on music. We never try too hard to make anything happen. If it's forced, you can tell. Instead, we just spend all the time we need to let the song come out on its own. I know it sounds corny, but I swear it works! What has been keeping you inspired in 2020 and what can we expect to see next from you? There has been SO MUCH great music released this year. It is so hard to keep up! I stay listening to new artists, as well as some amazing content from my favorites and it definitely keeps me motivated to continue the creative process. Also, not to play too much to the obvious, but this year has been so difficult for so many people around the globe. My mission with my music is always to just relate to someone, get someone to smile, or help brighten someone's day. Knowing that we are all more or less in this universal rough spot keeps me wanting to work harder and harder to produce music that people can escape to. I want to be the type of artist that provides an escape to a better place through my music. There is a lot up ahead. As I said, I have been working on a lot of songs in production and I will be dropping those singles as they wrap, so expect at least one or two more songs before the end of the year! I don't want to say too much because it is still early, but I actually just brought a concept to the studio for a larger body of work so I am really eager to get started and have something a little more sonically cohesive for people to listen to as well in the future.

  • Find Safety and Security in Josh Kroehn's Dynamic Single, "Don't Mind Me"

    Hailing from Adelaide, Australia, the Artist, and Singer/Songwriter Josh Kroehn releases an authentic and highly relatable single for introverts everywhere with, "Don't Mind Me." Fresh off the release of his debut album 'State of Devotion,' the project is said to tell the tales of Josh Kroehn's past decade while dealing with personal despair and tragedy. It's easy to be swooned by the likes of Josh Kroehn, as his honest lyricism, delicate delivery, and highly unique guitar techniques offer listeners a slice of authenticity. With a favorite single off the project titled, "Don't Mind Me," listeners can hear a more introspective Josh Kroehn as he sings his lyricism of feeling alienated in the crowd and amid social situations. With brilliant Alt-Rock instrumentals, especially through his dynamic and intriguing electric guitar performance, the song offers an instantaneous sense of warmth and comfort. "Don't Mind Me" begins with an upbeat drum kick and Josh Kroehn's grungy and filtered electric guitar, delivering melodies that shape the song's reflective and deep tone. As he begins singing to us about how we shouldn't pay him mind while he lives his life, we begin to recognize the lyrical message of living as an introvert in an extroverted world. The song's instrumentals offer this dream-like state alongside the airy percussion kicks and spacey electric guitar. Just when we thought the track is over, Josh Kroehn changes the tempo and begins singing in a more delicate tone. All while he offers a sweet and serene two-minute electric guitar solo to end the song, we couldn't be more impressed with the depth and authenticity Josh Kroehn has brought to the table. We're highly appreciative of such a conceptual and unique single like "Don't Mind Me," as JoshKroehn sings to and for introverts everywhere who have their minds running on end.

  • More to the "Lost Rebel" with Keith Tryfle Hudson

    Thank you for this interview today. What have you been up to lately? Thank you for having me. I'm still sharing all of the meanings behind my Music Audiobook "Lost Rebel". I'm sure I will be asked about it for the rest of my life. On a lighter note, I've started making new music a little less emotional this time. How do you start your day? At 5 am, much to my partner's disdain. I go downstairs to make a Nespresso, yes you read that right. I listen to a motivational speaker like Eric Thomas or Les Brown. Then I go to my basement and workout, ending the workout on a Peloton. You also read that right, I have no shame. Favorite song to blast in the car? Will Smith "Getting Jiggy With It". It's also my go-to karaoke song! The first concert you ever attended? Well, because of my family relationships, the first concerts I remember being at was backstage with Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers. The first concert I took myself to was a KMEL Summer Jam featuring Jay Z, Mariah Carey, and Missy Elliot. Who is an artist we would be surprised that you listen to? I don't know if it would be a surprise, but I've been a fan of P!nk since "There you go" and every album since. instagram.com/keithtryflehudson Interview conducted by: BsquaredMGMT

  • Getting To Know Natalie Jean

    Hi Natalie! Thank you for taking the time to chat with us! What have you been busy working on? I've been working on a couple of collaborations and working on a new album. What do you believe needs a makeover in the music world? I think that independent artists should get the same privileges as mainstream artists. I am tired of hearing the same artists on the radio. I think it should be a fair game and not be about money. More about your body of work. Is there anything that you would like to master? I would love to be able to play the piano. If you could do a duet, with anyone, living or not, who would it be and why? Nina Simone. She was a force to be reckoned with. She was an amazing musician who spoke her truth. She understood the hard work that it takes to create music. She demanded that people listened to her while she performed. She was also a great activist for the greater good. Do you have a favorite musical movie? West Side Story. I believe that it is the greatest musical of all time. I was honored to have been friends with David Winters (he played A-rab) on Facebook before he died in 2019. If your life was a song what would the title be? Not by your rules. instagram.com/NatalieJeanObsession twitter.com/natnat7 facebook.com/NatalieJeanObsession instagram.com/nataliej0819 natalie-jean.com

  • For Andrada, 2020 Has Been Better Than Her Wildest Dreams

    Andrada’s previous musical endeavor gathered her so much well-earned attention that when looking to release her music video for "I'll Be Lovin' You," AMG Sony took action immediately on supporting her. To follow up this release her latest single, "High on Love," shows her growth as an artist and as well as in the production of the track itself. "High on Love," quickly draws in the listener and then continues to take them on a steamy and intimate ride, with lyrics such as  "no, I can't wait for more, tonight I'm high on love, I can't control my body babe." When asked about the creation of this track in s recent interview with BuzzMusic, Andrada explains that "High on Love, is the definition of a track that ‘just happened”, the moment she heard the guitar she had fallen in love with it and the rest just fell into place. Although 2020 has caused Andrada to readjust massively, she continues to stay positive and to roll with the punches. 2020 has been a year that she would have never expected and can’t complain about the fact that her music has reached iTunes and Billboard Charts. Be on the lookout for Andrada’s next release which will be a Christmas song that she is extremely proud of, and hopes that will be remembered in the future as the 2020 Christmas anthem.

  • Jey Flores Expresses Her True Self in Her Recent EP Release, 'Where I'm Supposed to Be...'

    Canadian Singer/Songwriter Jey Flores is here to showcase her powerful, resilient, and emotionally-affecting EP, 'Where I'm Supposed to Be...'. Already having an elaborate start within the music scene, Jey Flores is always looking for ways to improve her sound and outlook in life. Choosing to focus on pivotal messages that can offer inspiration and relief to others, Jey Flores' music serves a great and therapeutic purpose for her listeners. With her recent release, Jey Flores is looking to only spread peace, confidence, love, and growth to listeners! Jey Flores opens up her EP with the track "Free", and the title easily depicts the way the melody will make listeners feel. "Free" uses electronic and pop components in order to establish the essence of its melody, which has a very open-ended feel to it. We're coursing through the realities of remaining lax in "Free", all while remaining introspective with one's own emotions. Jey Flores keeps her vocal outflow full of buoyancy, remaining spirited and dynamic with the way she goes about delivering her performance. The following track, "Can You Handle It," ventures along with a more serious narrative, focusing on the tribulations that come along with indecisiveness and confusion. Jey Flores remains her usual upbeat self within the track, which allows the message to be delivered in a softer way. There are components of the track that integrate dramatic lyricism, which brings about that robust performance on Jey Flores' end, and contrastingly, some moments where Jey Flores remains delicate and soft-sounding in order to put the spotlight on certain aspects of "Can You Handle It." The energy slowly begins to dissipate with the EP's third track, "I Was Wrong," but in a very fitting manner. Jey Flores sets her sights on elaborate introspection, all while remaining true to her own perspectives regarding external influence. "I Was Wrong" serves as a powerful ballad where Jey Flores displays her determination and confidence in very adaptive ways. "I Was Wrong" explores the theme of uncertainty, truth, and patience, all while conforming to a fierce outlook. The same goes for her following track, "I Wish You Were Well". With the fourth track, an innate EP theme can be established. "I Wish You Were Well" is a song that goes into the specifics of departing from someone's life and the pivotal emotions that result from such an experience. Jey Flores packs a ton of emotion into each and every lyric, delivering an affectingly moving performance to listeners. Her voice annotation matches the exact mood imparted onto us as listeners, and we're ultimately left wondering with the relayed messages in the track. The last track of the EP serves a fundamental purpose. "Love (Like There's No Tomorrow)" is a breakthrough track on the EP, showing the necessary healing has been done, and that Jey Flores' sights are set on the future. Ending the EP in the most fitting and positive way, Jey Flores' brings about a very cheerful and energetic essence with "Love (Like There's No Tomorrow)" and we find ourselves naturally moving along to the infectiously warm rhythm. All in all, Jey Flores' picked the right kind of track to wrap her EP up with, and we're left with major takeaways, all while remaining uplifted with the thoughts and feelings extracted from such an EP. What events transpired in your own personal life that aided in the making of 'Where I'm Supposed to Be...?' 'Where I'm Supposed to Be' is a chronicle of my personal growth from traumatic, and difficult experiences in my life. I am a survivor of domestic violence, and I believe it is important to showcase strength and resilience after an experience like that - especially to those who have experienced something like that (domestic violence) as well. Even for people who haven't, I think it's important to note that life is full of struggles, and it's how we deal with them that determines our character. The first song on the EP "Free," is a rebirth, after the fact - I knew I needed to get out and have my freedom. Our personal journeys make us who we are, and I chose love, compassion, and courage. This record tells the story of different emotions through the growth process. Was there a particular track within your EP that felt more affecting to you? What track do you believe served the greatest purpose on the EP? That's a hard question! I think every song on the EP serves its purpose - "Free" is a song of acknowledgment and realization, "Can You Handle It" is an anthem for strength and self-worth, "I Was Wrong" is a song about expectations, failure, and courage, "I Wish You Well" covers acceptance, grievance, and inner peace, and finally "Love (Like There's No Tomorrow)" is a universal song about love, oneness, optimism, and hope. What kind of emotions and/or thought patterns ensued during the writing and recording process for "Where I'm Supposed to Be...?' I wrote the songs the moment I felt the inspiration. Like I mentioned before, all of the songs demonstrate different emotions and thoughts. For me, self-realization and self-actualization were the most outstanding. Within that, feelings of sadness, disappointment, vulnerability, strength, courage, and happiness also ensued. My co-writer, Bobby John, and I made sure that every word was properly written, and the way I sang them was properly executed to provide the tone and feel of the songs. As an artist who has a very impressionable voice, combined with a dynamic performance approach, how would you describe the way you intend for your listeners to interpret you as a music artist? The way I would sing the songs mattered tremendously to me. I felt what I was trying to say. I wanted to sing as if I was speaking to someone about my feelings or thoughts at the moment, with authenticity. Hopefully, my listeners will be able to listen to the words clearly and feel everything I am seeing. I have had listeners already tell me that they could relate to the experiences or feelings I was expressing in the songs. Some have even told me it helped them get through a difficult day. This, to me, is so gratifying. I always looked at myself as someone who wants to help others, and if I can do that through my music, then that's what I want to be known for. I want people to listen to my music and have hope, faith in themselves, and the power to make their lives the best it can be. Where do you have your sights set from here on out with your music? I recently became a mother to an amazing 3-year-old boy named Kai (who also loves to sing and loves music). I intend to encourage him to follow those interests, and I'd love to teach him how to write, sing, and play. On my side, for my own music, I still intend to write a follow-up to this EP, whether it's a few singles, or an album when I feel the inspiration. Being a mother has taught me a lot about myself, so maybe that could be something I'd write about. Again, going towards constant personal development and growth are things I tend to write and sing about. Right now I am living in the moment, enjoying being a mom, and putting my music out there for people to listen, and hopefully help encourage self-empowerment. I am exactly 'Where I'm Supposed to Be' right now, so we will see what happens! jeyfloresmusic.com instagram.com/jeyflores facebook.com/jeyfloresmtl
