The composer and producer of electronic
music known as Vusive has released his new EP record, “Soulseeker.”
The EP contains five original tracks for an approximate total
listening time of 20 minutes. It has been released on the Ohio-based
Grasshopper Juice Records independent music label. Jazzy, classy,
stylish and full of groove, “Soulseeker” by Vusive is an
electronica soul album that fans of digital music and R 'n' B can all
get behind.
Vusive cites as main artistic
influences “Hip hop, electronic music, EDM, IDM, indie, jazz,
classical,” and proving that he has an open mind, “anything
really.” He has also mentioned Flying Lotus, Tokimonsta, Nosaj
Thing, Machinedrum, Samiyam, Hudson Mohawke, Onra, and Flume as
inspirations in the past.
Vusive's appearance in the independent
music underground scene is fairly recent as a producer, having begun
digital music production in earnest little more than a year ago. That
said, his repertoire is already filling out in short order, as the
current EP proves. His knack for clean, precise sound engineering and
intuitive songwriting are bringing him (and Grasshopper Juice
Records) to prominence both at home in Cincinnati and abroad.
The artist himself has described his
sound as “a music project that has stemmed from various backgrounds
and influences that has a large focus on improvisation and live
instrumentation.”
These backgrounds notably include the
classical genre, with which Vusive spent his first years in music. A
longtime instrumentalist, Vusive is a violinist with more than 14
years of experience. He is also a musical autodidact, having taught
himself to play guitar and drums. With widespread abilities like
these, it's no surprise that he is no stranger to the live stage,
either.
Vusive describes the creative process
of his “Soulseeker” EP as centered around “a dynamic mix of
genres ranging from hip hop, jazz, R 'n' B, soul, classical,
hardcore/metal, disco, and funk, all induced into an electronic
platform that brings a very groovy, and dance-oriented atmosphere.”
“Soulseeker” from Vusive on
Grasshopper Juice Records is available online worldwide.
