What better way to relight the flames of my EDM blog than by firstly accepting roll as the worst blogger in the history of the blogosphere, god that word is painful to use. Anyway one of my favorite producers the critically acclaimed Feed Me's first full length album dropped yesterday to huge reception by the EDM community. Offering a diverse blend of genres and instrumentation Feed Me takes you through a huge soundscape which is beautifully crafted and produced. This has been Feed Me's main reason for stepping out of the DJ world months ago. He wanted to get back to crafting his real passion which is production, not performance.
“This is my first full-length album. It represents a journey through various styles of music, 2 years of intensive touring around the world in a variety of incredible locations, and the construction of my live show and imaginary friend, from sketches into tangible reality. It's something I now see as a collaboration between me and Feed Me. It's very serious.” Jon Gooch, Feed Me
The album is available for free streaming on Sotto Voce's website, Feed Me's self made label for a 24 hour time block for the next 19 hours. To tide over late readers and those who just want to listen to the single of the album, Lonely Mountain.
Feed Me - Lonely Mountain
This song offers a great introduction to the album, with a beautifully blended and crafted sound that takes from a multi-genre base. The audiophiles out there will notice the high production value of the entire album which isn't make a difference for a lot of people but it really shows how much work Feed Me put into this. For the collectors out there Feed Me has released a vinyl edition of the album available to over from Amazon.
Feed Me leaves us at the end of the album with a delicate symphonic outro. Which is probably one of the more meaningful sections of the album because Gooch has led us through this eclectic soundscape that has stylized Trance, Electro House, Grime, Dubstep, Trap, and more into one cohesive album. He has left everything on the table in order to produce this well done album for his fans.
For those that cannot get enough Feed Me has done an in-depth interview with Vibe to talk about his new label and album.
