Yoseph creates Original G - Funk inspired Bass Music and hails from Sebastopol California. We first heard his release 'Converse' on Savory Audio about a year and a half ago and were immediately drawn to his eclectic style and composition. We asked him a '6-pack' of questions to get to know him a little better and this is what he had to say.
1. Where were you born?
Santa Rosa. It's a place.
2. What was your first electronic dance music experience?
I had friends that were really into the rave scene in the late 90's (I was a highschool freshman in 1997), but I wasn't ever really very much a part of that. I was really into squarepusher and aphex twin and plaid and telefon tel aviv and things like that.
3. What other music besides dance music influences your production style?
80's electro and 90's hiphop. Nine Inch Nails. Warren G, and Slayer.
4. At the Slurpee Machine what would you choose? 1. Coke, 2. Pina Colada, or 3. Cherry
I would definitely choose all three for the suicide combination creation.
5. How do you like your eggs and when?
I like them over medium and I like them served by a fine woman wearing an apron and heels, and nothing else. Just any old time.
6. Any shout outs?
Savory Audio, Vermin Street, Wobble Factory Sound, Double D Productions and all the magic elves and unicorns everywhere.
For this release we have four solid tracks to get your a$$ shakin.
With 'Contact Hi' and 'Jerkslump' he hits us with some crazy 140/70 bpm West Coast sizzurp flavors. 'Straight Up' is on dirty casino tip with lots of smoke, crunch and heavy leads, while 'Bootsy' is on a 110 bpm zombie funk vibe that will bring the dead to life.
