I think the main change “Cola” has brought me is I’m now able to work with a lot of different people from all over the world that may not have heard me before. How have things changed for you since “Cola” has gone on to have so much success and receive a Grammy nomination?
ELDERBROOK BIRD SONG HOW TO
It took time to translate to live because I had to figure out how to make so many different sounds at the same time. Because it was all based on electronic sounds there’s quite a few things going on. When I started making music it was just by myself. It came together slowly and has grown and changed over time. I’m singing most of the time simultaneously. I play keys, electric drums and I loop and trigger stuff in and out. So it’s just me on stage being a bit of a one man band. We really enjoyed your live set on our rooftop for The Sauce! Can you tell us a bit about your live setup and how it came together? He’s definitely been a big influence on me and the way I make music so to write with him was really exciting. I’m a big fan of his and have been for ages.

I really enjoyed writing “Bird Song” cause it was a co-write between myself and TEED (Totally Extinct Enormous Dinosaurs). Is there a particular song on the project you enjoyed making the most? I’ve been writing constantly since my Last release “Talking” and these four just made sense together. Yes- in the sense that this has been one of the few occasions I’ve had where I really felt like it just presented itself. I wanted to sum it up before I release my album next year which I anticipate sounding a little different.ĭid you approach this project differently than your previous works? I released this collection of songs because it feels like the most accurate representation of where I’ve been over the past year. What brings them together is the style and energy in the music. Then with “Sleepwalking” and “Bird Song” the lyrics seem more personal to me. With “Old friend” and “Capricorn” I tried to paint a picture- more story telling in the lyrics.

The tracks on the EP all fit together differently. Check out the EP and interview below and enjoy! Elderbrook – Old Friend EPĬongrats on getting this new Old Friend EP out there! What is the story and meaning behind this new EP? Here the pulsing basslines and crisp percussion shines throughout the 4-song EP including past releases “Sleepwalking” and “Capricorn.” The EP includes two new tracks “Old Friend” and “Bird Song” with the former staying in line with the first two singles and the latter taking a more relaxed approach fully displaying his incredible vocals and songwriting. Like past releases, the songwriting is as catchy as it gets for house music while the production is as great as ever. We got a chance to catch up with Elderbrook with an exclusive interview below touching on his new EP, his live set, a new album on the way and more.Įlderbrook incorporates his vocals and productions together seamlessly on this new EP. Today he’s shared an impressive new 4-track EP titled Old Friend out via Big Beat and it’s just what I wanted from the multi-talented artist. Ever since taking the world by storm with his Grammy-nominated “Cola” collab with Camelphat and popped on my radar I haven’t been able to get enough. An artist I’ve had on repeat just about all year is Elderbrook.
