[ELECTRONIC/DANCE] In a recent profile on the artist, LA Weekly called Drezo “the antithesis of EDM.” Which basically means that, though the artist has a keen ability to read a crowd, he’s still going to do his own thing. “Sometimes you are playing for a more mainstream crowd, but being different is great. You can still do that and be different,” he says. Listen to his track “Heaven” and you’ll understand what’s going on. The song has many of the characteristics of your typical, and most of the time stale, EDM bangers, but his track doesn’t go exactly where you’d expect it to go. He lets his music breath a little bit, rather than cramming in contrived count downs and empty drops. The music is almost deconstructed and reconstructed, made of the same basic building blocks, but put back together without the directions resulting in a familiar sound that goes down an unpredicatable path. It’ll be interesting to see how the young producer reacts to the typically mainstream EDM-loving crowd at Sky Bar when he comes to the roof top bar this Friday, August 11 with support from Eyes Everywhere.
