My Tunes: The Story behind JAM

By now you may have heard my latest single, JAM (it’s really good. No bias.) Here’s a little background on the songs fruition.

Art Direction: Theophilus Martins

Producer: Tomas Whitmore

This song was recorded March 2010 in the basement of Kris Fame’s apartment. I heard the production and I immediately thought of Halloween: dark, daunting, but fun. I immediately see colors when I hear music (Dr. Dre’s Still D.R.E is a pale neon green, while Kid Cudi’s Cudi Zone is dry tangerine. See?) and this song was a burnt neon orange and jet black. Tomas made the suggestion to add texture to give it character which turned out to be perfect-o!

And there you have it. Wonderland only gets darker, only gets better. See you then.
