There will always be a point in ones lifetime of listening to music, that they will come across an artist and / or sound that is so pure, so honest, so rare, and so impeccably flawless that you do nothing but listen to their music and pray to the gods of sound that they just keep the momentum going for the rest of eternity. However, while this rare occasion in music is precious, there is the contradicting emotion you feel towards this particular artist as well; half of you wants to do anything to spread their gospel to anyone and everyone all across the board, and the other half wants to keep it all to yourself so it can be your little secret â a place to escape and feel like you have a weapon against the masses of people listening to the same things over and over. But, the former ends up outweighing the latter, and you become so enigmatic about this music it that sharing it over and over again almost becomes detrimentally stimulating, a rush of power that comes from showing it off to everyone you meet.
With that being said, may we introduce you to one of these bands; Sofi Tukker. Sofi Tukker consists of Sophie Hawley-Weld and Tucker Halpern, a duo who met and started producing at Brown University together, who have taken the blogosphere by complete and utter storm. Their sound is a mix of Brazilian funk, a dash of heavy guitar chords that will never fail to get your bum moving, and multiple pinches of sex appeal that will have you sweating as soon as you push play. Their single âDrinkeeâ premiered on Interview Magazine, which not only excited the masses, but left everyone who listened wanting more, and quickly.
We brought the duo to Gibson Studios in Hellâs Kitchen to practice their live set, and luckily for us got to chat with them a bit about their production process, DJing together, and what they hope to have happen within the next year.
