There are many record labels, music groups and other entities in the electronic music scene looking to leave their footprint and excel in the world of freeform bass. Our friends over at Sum R&R have been doing this for a while now, celebrating their 5th year curating shows throughout the local Tampa bass scene and being a vessel for artists to showcase their work. This month, we will be featuring a few of these talented individuals off of the 5 Year Anniversary Compilation that Sum R&R will be releasing in late September. Our premiere and the first track we are featuring, comes from three extremely talented freeform bass artists, duo Sunken Frequency and Mystic Grizzly. Their track “Origins” combines a blend of experimental design flow that pays homage to the sounds of our ancient ancestors. This tune creates a beautiful downtempo soundscape that intertwines with spiritual vibrations that will leave you wanting more. Let’s take a deeper dive into why we are calling “Origins”, a certified bop.

“This collaboration is an expression of ancient vibrations with a blend of experimental sound design and flows. We seek to bring a danceable yet intentional energy in this track that brings forth a familiar feeling that reminds us all of our ancient ancestors.” -Mystic Grizzly

DIVING DEEP W/ MYSTIC GRIZZLY & SUNKEN FREQUENCIES

 

  1. If you could go back in time and start over given what you have learned in your career so far, what changes and approach would you have done differently?

 

Mystic Grizzly- What I would do differently is probably stick to one DAW since the beginning and would’ve organized all my file libraries and sample libraries better from the beginning, that way I wouldn’t have to backtrack years of organization.

 

Sunken Frequencies- If we could go back in time and start over,  we would spend less time on distractions and more time focused more on learning things quicker so we could be further along in our career, as well as proper file management/organization. Lastly having a strong consistent  social media presence. 

 

  1. Is there a message you would like to portray through your music, and if so, what would it be?

 

Mystic Grizzly- The message I intend on portraying through my music is one of raising the vibration of our human race and opening the minds of people to new sounds and expanding their creative minds.

 

Sunken Frequencies- The message we would like to portray through our music is depths within oneself. Tapping into your inner consciousness to discover your true meaning in life.
