Today we're joined by a few fiends, Bas and The Hics. They're fresh off the release of their collaborative album 'Melanchronica'. We start with how Sam & Roxanne first met at an arts high school and how Bas (while on acid) connected with them during a J. Cole tour in Europe. They reminisce on recording their early collaborative records and how recording together has evolved over the years. They share what they wants listeners to feel this new album and making music that evolves with their personal growth. Bas shares a story about "Everyday People" and how his brother DJ Moma literally let Nas down. Sam shares how the hook for this song "I just want to f*ck no more fighting" was a tough lyric for his grandmother to hear. They share how family can influence how they express themselves through music. They share what music they listened to growing up and how video games (GTA) was a game where we all learned older music. They share which music genre they'd like to explore next. We get into the division of Bas & Sam's football (soccer) clubs, PSG v.s. Arsenal. This leads to a history lesson from the beef with the French and the origin of the cockney accent. Bas and I share our South African acid trip story and following the hyenas in the den. Sam and I take a bathroom, but Bas and Roxanne kept it rolling - Bas shares his DJ career aspirations as DJ BOMA. When I return we discuss our favorite films and English bathroom culture. We end by returning to the album and how through all the darkness there is hope and the opportunity for light to shine through, Tune in as Bas, Roxanne, Sam and I discuss all of this + more!
