In the electronic world, relating emotional journeys and ideas through music can result in some of the most inspiring and beautiful tracks. Skinny Limbs has produced just this in his latest EP, Emotions in Balance, as he tries to exemplify the highs and lows in life and how one navigates through them. This two track EP, combines lo-fi sounds and high energy bass into one amazing compilation. Our premiere that we have the honor of presenting to you today, “It Isn’t Fair”, provides an uptempo and exciting experimental bass soundscape that is not to be missed. It’s vocals combined with deep booming bass lines and bouncy melodies perfectly captures everything about the Skinny Limbs project and what sound it brings. This entire EP shows a clear juxtaposition between the two tracks, that correlates effortlessly with how life has it’s juxtapositions as well. Let’s take a deeper dive into why we are calling “It Isn’t Fair” and the rest of the Emotions in Balance EP, a certified bop.
“This project expresses the importance of recognizing that no journey is linear. There are always going to be highs and there are always going to be lows, it’s all about how you react to those moments and what you can learn from them. This EP represents the emotions that come from those highs and those lows.” -Skinny Limbs
Diving Deeper w/ Skinny Limbs
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 have done differently?
In the early stages of my music producing journey I would put a lot of unhealthy pressure on myself. From telling myself I wasn’t good enough to comparing my individual journey to the people around me, I began to loose sight of why I started to produce in the first place. I started to feel this strange anxiety about me not reaching my fullest potential musically. Looking back now I would tell myself that it’s ok to have periods of stagnation. It’s ok to feel unmotivated and it’s ok to feel like your falling behind. I’d tell myself that those are the feelings that ultimately push us forward and challenge us to grow. I’d let myself know that I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be.
2. What has been one of the most memorable career achievements so far as an artist and how did that impact you moving forward?
Since I started the Skinny Limbs project a little over 6 years ago I always had dreams of one day being able to perform at festivals. In July, I got the chance to play my debut festival set at Big Dub in Artemas PA. This experience was surreal to say the least. Getting the opportunity to play at this festival was a huge reminder to me that I’m on the right path and I just have to keep trusting the process.
