In the ever changing world of music, finding tracks that take you on a journey through sound can be rare to find. While most songs can evoke certain emotions, it can be hard to find music that feels like it is actually transporting listeners to another dimension or space through its melodies. This however did not seem to be a challenge for Arkansas based bass producer, SpaceBass as he brings forth an absolutely massive EP tomorrow. His Altered State EP features 4 tracks of pure bass bliss, with each tune taking listeners into an alternate reality of sound. We have the pleasure of giving you a taste of what is to come with the full EP release with our premiere today, “Transcend”, which features the perfect combination of floating synths and wavy bass lines. This track is definitely a mind bending listen, we will definitely have it on repeat alongside the rest of the Altered State EP. Let’s take a deeper dive into why we are calling “Transcend” and the rest of Spacebass’s highly anticipated EP, a certified bop.
“This EP was really special to make, I was able to really push the knowledge I had and learned so much along the way. I really wanted to have a cohesive EP that everything could flow properly together and create a theme / story. Something that would catch the attention of the listener and allow them to resonate with the vocals or flow with the baseline or melody.”
Diving Deep W/ SpaceBass
1. How did you decide to get into music? Was there a certain event in your childhood/life that made you stop and realize that you wanted to pursue a career in music?
Well music has been something that has really helped me through breakups, depression, and helped me connect with people in ways I’ve struggled with in the past. Music its self has been something that I have always enjoyed since High school. But Wakaan 2019 was the turning point for me, I realized that I could possibly express myself in a way that I would enjoy but also possibly help someone along the way. That’s when I realized I wanted to dive into learning not only how to produce but DJ as well.
2. What has been a personal career struggle that you have battled with the most and how has it helped mold your character for the better good presently?
Networking, its a tricky part of the job, I used to be introverted in a way and still somewhat am. But from the beginning I pushed myself outside of my comfort zone to connect with people in the business and because of it I have made some amazing friends along the way. But really it has helped shape me into more of a people person and not as shy as I used to be.
3. What kind of impact do you wish to have on the scene 1-2 years from now with your project?
For me music has always been therapeutic, I would love to not only help people by them being able to zone out in that moment and forget about their issues or whatever might be on their mind. If people can stop their negative thinking for just a brief moment it might improve their day just enough to help them get through the problem they are dealing with. I would also like to help further projects that can benefit the communities from toy drives to benefit shows. We are all here to help one another along this journey we call life.
4. What has been the biggest lesson you’ve learned since you started making music? Do you have any words of wisdom for aspiring producers hoping to follow in your footsteps?
Persistence, learning how to make music does not come over night. Success does not happen over night. I started with zero knowledge, I never played an instrument, never learned music theory, nothing. But I did not give up, I still take production classes, 1 on 1s with artists, and constantly trying to further my knowledge because we can always Improve and further our crafts. Just because you didn’t get the results you envisioned is not a reason to give up. Start over and try again, while trying to improve your weakest areas.
