What Is Kali Uchis Wearing in Acoustic Version of See You Again
Tyler, the Creator, "Meet Yous Again"
Watch "See You Once more" beneath.
Blue Hour Lasts A Long Time In Hamond'south Globe
"I just believe that there'south energy watching over u.s., and that comes through in that song. And in one case you commencement looking for patterns and numbers in the world, then you outset to meet them more. Which is manifestly something that's very talked virtually present, simply information technology'southward true. It goes to a deeper matter where information technology's similar when you're open to seeing things in the globe, and then they come to you to you lot." says the singer.
On a sunny 24-hour interval in California, office had the opportunity to meet up with Hamond in Silver Lake Park, his favorite park to talk all things music.
And then you grew upward in Houston, did your parents inspire whatever of the music you grew up listening to?
Yeah, definitely. They had very opposite tastes of music. My mom was very much into disco, World, Wind, and Fire, Michael Jackson, Sade, and my dad was very much classic rock, Beatles, Led Zeppelin. And I went through so many phases of music, because of that, which I'm really really glad because at a certain signal, it was but trying to culminate all the different, opposite genres, that I've been listening to all my life.
Are your parents from two different places, is that why they have different music tastes?
Not really, they're both from the Midwest. My mom'due south from Chicago, and my dad'due south from Detroit, and so, not too far.
Taking from each of those sides, how did you go into music?
Well, it was on my mom'southward side, art was her big matter, but music and her family unit, my grandfather played in the Chicago Symphony, and my uncle was a conductor. It was all classical music leaning, for sure. But just existence around that as a child, and and then I just started picking up instruments, and trying to exercise bands, only I was too decision-making as a kid, to be in a band, "No, play it this way."
What's your sign?
I'thousand a Pisces.
Oh actually? I feel like Pisces, aren't that controlling, maybe they're just detail?
Yes. I don't know signs that well, only I was talking to the guy that does my pilus. I was like, "Yeah, I'g a Pisces, I think my girlfriend told me I'm a rising Leo." He was like, "Oh, that's where the controlling part comes in."
So you were in a band, how old were you?
This was in middle schoolhouse, and information technology lasted mayhap a month. But information technology's funny because I was at this bar two weeks ago, you know Zebulon? Just I was walking outside of the bar, and some guy came up to me and was like, "Brian Hammond. You were in a ring with Jackson Beasley in seventh course, and we were good friends."
I was similar, "Oh, that's crazy. I don't remember beingness in a band." Simply that made me think back on it again, and how bad I was at being in a ring considering I merely couldn't permit people practise their ain thing. That's when I realized I had to practice my own thing. Well then I started— I got a MacBook, when I had my bar mitzvah, in seventh grade. So when I had my bar mitzvah, is when I got Garage Ring on a computer, and so I started producing. And then I started producing for rappers in high school, and then I was secretly singing in my room, but not letting anyone know.
Doing covers on YouTube?
Yeah, there you go. And so I started singing on some of the hooks, and then information technology got to a point where I was like, "I don't want to do this. I want to make my own music." And so it merely transformed into that.
Practise you lot remember the offset song you made, and what information technology was called?
Yeah, information technology was chosen "Experience Information technology," makes me cringe now thinking about information technology. My parents loved information technology. They were like, "That's a hit!"
Expect, what did it audio like, and what were some of the themes?
In that location were no themes, I was 14. I was just like, "Oh, these sound similar some cool words that go over this stuff. Tin you feel it?" Oh my God.
Well, on the opposing side, do you recollect the first song y'all made where yous were like, "Okay, I could do this music affair professionally?"
Aye, I think so. Information technology was probably when I was eighteen, information technology was this song called "Keys," that I posted on SoundCloud. But yeah, that was 1 that was the starting time song I made, that was my own, not me producing for someone else, or me featuring on a claw, or something, information technology was like this is fully my art, my projection.
And and so you made the adjacent song that you thought was good, and what did you learn from the first song that you lot brought into the side by side gear up of songs?
I don't know, information technology was a long time ago, it's difficult to remember. I know now with each vocal, maybe non with each song, simply with each era, information technology'due south stepping back, and being like, "Okay, this got amend, only maybe I need to hone in on..." With this side by side era that I'm going into, information technology's near looking at it every bit a full drove, fine art, or fashion collection. Ane of my friends, Lisa, who I worked with, every bit a manager, on this video that is going to come out, she went to fashion schoolhouse. Nosotros were just talking about how the first step to whatever project is the enquiry phase, and how I'1000 in this phase correct now of pulling all the sounds I like, and inspiration I like. So that and then once you go into the phase of making the actual music, you have these boundaries that you lot're trying to exist inside.
What were some of the specific resources you were looking at when you lot were doing research?
My whole goal is to endeavor to combine genres that were really inspired by electronic music, UK Garage, and old pulsate pockets of that kind of sound, just make it more musical, and alternative. So I was listening to a lot of Stereolab, Broadcast. I've always loved Pharrell and the Neptunes, chords, and jazz. Only then trying to match it with these electronic textures, the whole thought with this project, Pirate Radio, was classic future vintage, if that makes sense?
What is the pinnacle of utopia in a audio for you lot? If at that place's a song or a specific chord y'all like, what is that? How are yous trying to chase that perfection?
Man. This is going to sound crazy, only the chord progression of "Senorita" past Justin Timberlake. That's and so fucking crazy. Every time I become back, and listen to it— and I learned it on the pianoforte, I think like, "How did Pharrell come upward with these chords?" And then simply the pocket of it, and the style the melody comes in on it, is just so perfect, that is one. Stereolab has this song called, The Bloom Called Nowhere, the chord progression on that, and it's in a super weird time signature. Information technology'south just things that are like, "How the fuck did they think about that?" There's a few of them, I'm sure, I tin can't think well-nigh information technology off the top of my caput, but those are a couple for certain.
Did yous see the documentary with Pharrel, and Justin, where they were making Senorita?
Oh yep. Justified? The corporeality of times I watched that as a high schooler, my play count on that is probably a 100 each, split up, I think there's three thirty-minute videos on YouTube, that I watched over, and over, and over once again. Yeah. They don't have him making that Senorita, though.
Yeah, what song was it?
They did, "I Love You lot." I remember "Rock Your Torso." And "Let's Accept a Ride" anile the best out of that.
So with your new project, can you pigment the sonic landscape of what you lot're putting out?
Yeah. Well, I started to bear upon on it, matching electronic textures with vintage textures, then we used a lot of analog equipment, and I wanted this project to be very musical in the sense. A lot of times electronic-leaning music isn't very musical. Yes. So trying to accept influences from that, merely even so accept it rooted in alternative music, musicality, using alive instruments, pianos, guitars, and then we used record machines on a lot of stuff. They give it a super analog, retro texture. At that place'south this interlude on the projection, called "The Credit," And that whole thing was printed to a tape car. So there's a pitch wheel on the record auto, and I played around, moved information technology, and and so you tin can hear information technology, manipulating it. And it just sounds more human, than information technology would if you were in the software program, cartoon it in. Well, the whole theme of the project is, it'south called "Pirate Radio." Do yous know what pirate radio is?
It's like UK garage?
Yeah. Well, it'south it started in the UK, but it started with the classic rock era, where the radio wasn't playing what people— or what the youth wanted to hear, pretty much. And so they would steal the broadcast, hijack the radio station, and play their own radio, the music they wanted to hear, onto it. And then it but turned into United kingdom of great britain and northern ireland electronic music, and that whole world, only it's pretty much people in their bedrooms running their own radio station with all this equipment.
And so, me and TJ, TJ is like my executive producer I practise everything with, we were referencing that whole feeling and the spirit of that. And how when we make music, it's like nosotros're in my bedroom, or in our studio where we're tinkering with things, and where it's merely the ii of us, nosotros're running a radio station. And then leaning into that with the manner the music is fabricated, using knobs, and equipment, all that shit.
Have you lot e'er hijacked any parties trying to DJ?
No, but that is what we're trying to do with that. So I really want my first shows for this project to exist — We're talking nearly finding abased office spaces, and warehouses, and pretty much building out what pirate radio looks like with all this equipment, making it an art slice, then doing a show there, that would turn into a rave after it. With Charles, my other roommate, he is a crazy DJ, and has been launching this thing chosen, "Give thanks You For Sweating Out Here." Which is going to be surreptitious Raves, pretty much, and he would assistance put that on.
What got you into UK garage? Was information technology from your dad?
Not really, I mean, neither of my parents were actually into electronic music, that was later their time. Aye, I don't know, I've e'er loved electronic music, but skilful electronic music. I fucking detest EDM music, simply information technology's chosen fucking fist punk, bro. It started with Daft Punk, and then it but escalated into getting into Aphex Twin. And this whole earth, that all of the electronic music I was really liking, was coming out of the UK. They're just and so much better at information technology doing it in a tasteful fashion. It's a sure way that British people are able to incorporate electronic music, and not make information technology fucking corny.
Simply you know why that is right?
Why?
There's a big theory about people in the U.k. existence actually good at art because their environment is highly depressive. So the theory is that people here making art in America is non every bit great, as deep, and more than surface level is because nosotros have a lot to wait at, a lot that's stimulating.
There's definitely something to that. I think my favorite fourth dimension we brand music is when it'due south cloudy, and raining out. Yeah. I'grand trying to alive in London for a while, at to the lowest degree do a yr there, or something. But January is my favorite month in LA considering people think it's sunny all the time, only in January, LA is cloudy and rainy. Probably half the days of the month, and that's when I make the best music.
You have this evangelical and spiritual hue to your music. You released "Angels" on the appointment 02/22/22, and your newest vocal is called "Angels." Can you talk about the spiritual elements yous experience, and put into your music?
Yeah. Well for the get-go single "Angels," plainly it's directly tied to, that's what the whole song is about. But I don't know, I don't want to get as well deep into my religious human relationship with God. I'thousand trying to effigy out how to do it without information technology, but I'm not afraid to talk near it. Information technology'due south actually simply a matter of, I don't know exactly what I'm comfortable with saying. But I do believe in a higher power, and my dad, when I was a kid, would always tell me, and my sis, that we had specific guardian angels designated to us, and mine was named Chester. I nevertheless talk to my guy Chester upwards at that place, but I don't know, I don't believe in it in such a literal sense, just I believe in the higher power. I just believe that there'southward energy watching over us, and that comes through in that song. And in one case you start looking for patterns and numbers in the world, then you beginning to encounter them more. Which is obviously something that'southward very talked about nowadays, but it'southward truthful. Information technology goes to a deeper thing where it'south like when you're open to seeing things in the earth, then they come up to you lot.
Do yous accept that same approach to making music? Are you open to any sounds or ideas come up, to yous, even if that'due south not the plan you had for that day?
Well, that is one thing nearly music, that's why the research phase comes in handy. You try not to be too methodical almost it. That'southward i thing, with me and TJ, is when we piece of work, it'southward all simply how we feel. But it'due south, "Allow'southward get this idea out. Permit's practice this." And and then once we're non feeling information technology, allow'south become to the adjacent one, and come back to it. And going with the energy of the room, and how it makes yous feel.
The methodical part is y'all do information technology beforehand, where you attempt to figure out what you're trying to exercise, in general. And and so you get in with that, in your subconscious, and so you make it with that in mind. Only you have to let the energy flow when you lot're doing information technology in person, otherwise, you merely disrupt the whole— you cease upwards being similar, "Oh no, no, no. We need to become this perfect." At that place's energy in the imperfections, information technology makes it more homo.
What you lot would tell your younger self well-nigh making music at present?
That'due south a really good question, I'thousand really thankful that I don't actually regret —I fabricated a lot of pivots throughout being a kid of like, "Oh, I like this. No, I like this." and jumping around. But I never would've gotten to a bespeak where I would want to create something totally new that combines genres, if I hadn't gone through those phases of trying to do so many dissimilar types of music. So I would probably only tell myself, "Keep going child."
Were you lot one of the kids like up all night on Reddit, or looking for music?
Yep. Well I was up all night making beats, that's for sure.
Were you selling beats?
No, I tried to, at i point, information technology'south just such a soul-sucking thing to like, "Oh yeah, I'm going to make these beats that random rappers across the world would similar?"
Pierre-blazon beats?
"Blazon beats" are the worst. I but remember I was such a huge Kanye fan in high schoolhouse. And when this documentary dropped, information technology reminded me of what it was like because I was staying upwards waiting for it to come out. And I remember staying up late, waiting for "Practiced Fridays" to drib. And beingness on forums almost gear certain producers would utilise. And information technology's like a rabbit hole that you become down with similar, "Oh, I wish I had these things that these producers I look up to, or artists I look upwardly to have, or utilise." And so it's such a cliché to be like, "Oh, y'all don't need those things." Merely you actually don't need shit, yous but demand your ideas and your ain self.
Just and so that goes hand in paw with making music for yourself and selling music. Have yous been hesitant about getting an executive producer, signing with a label, and getting a marketing team, if that might have away from the true artistry of your music?
Yeah. I retrieve in the commencement couple of years, I had spent coming out to LA, and then eventually moving hither. I mean it'south obvious, but the industry in LA is and so gross. I mean, but there's a great side to it too. So you just discover your bubble, merely once I institute my chimera of people that I desire to exist surrounded by and just stick by, then it's like you lot block all the other shit out. And in one case you accept that, it fabricated me realize that like, "Oh, there's sure ways people come across music, that I don't desire to have to exist associated with, at all." Non associated with, or but work with considering I don't desire those opinions on my music, the way I look at information technology now is like, "Am I going to be happy with having this out in ten years?" Or when I'm older.
Wow. I've never heard anyone talk well-nigh that, the longevity of their music in that sense.
That's the motivating force for what road I want to go, what I want to put out at present, with this project. And going frontwards from at present on is like, "Am I going to be happy with this being out when I'm old?"
If you lot could accept 1 person living or dead review your music and requite you lot a critique, who would it be?"
Pharrell is one. I was going to say Paul McCartney. And Guy Manuel or someone from Daft Punk.
Why would you want Pharrell to critique your music? What advice would you lot think he would give you?
The way he hears chords, and I'm merely curious what he would say like, "Go along doing that." I just admire him, the thing nearly Pharrell, is that he has such a distinct sound. When yous hear a Neptunes beat out or a Pharrell trounce, you can, most of the fourth dimension tell if you know the sound?And my goal with this next era, and a little fleck with this project, simply even more so, probably with every project, is to virtually put a little more boundaries on places you can go musically. So that I can make as cohesive, and identifiable of a sound every bit I tin can, and I'm curious how he did that.
That'southward true, because I can ever, no thing what vocal it is, I'yard like, "Pharrell produced this." But with other people, I know sometimes Timbaland, similar people can hear that.
Timbaland is super identifiable, non every bit the Neptunes, just a lot of it comes from liking chords. It changes everything, seriously. Both Tyler and Pharrell use jazz chords, major, minor seven, which is something I've always gravitated towards. There was this song, it'south an old classical song that uses major, and pocket-sized, seventh chords. And I was learning classical music at the fourth dimension, and then I heard that, and I immediately pivoted to jazz music considering I was like, "This is so much meliorate." It only feels similar, it's a unlike feeling.
I love jazz, it'due south so boundless. I feel like people are very pretentious with the way that they love jazz, but it literally is just similar the scope of all music that you hear, all of it has jazz elements in it.
Yeah. It's literally there'southward no wrong to it. Jazz is the near human part because equally we were maxim, humanism is embracing the mistakes of information technology. Jazz is then technically incorrect, but it'southward so it only feels right.
And Paul McCartney?
Oh yeah. Just him as a songwriter, I'k curious near his procedure in how often they wrote songs with the Beatles. And how I remember hearing they would go in, and just write a song a solar day, or multiple songs a day, and so get to the studio, and hammer them out. It was like sometimes you can become also caught up in trying to make the perfect song, but it's clear the manner they were doing it with how much they churned out, it was like they weren't thinking besides deeply about information technology. I'm just curious on how he approaches songwriting.
If this was Brian's world, what would information technology wait similar? What are the rules? What'southward going on? What is the groundwork music, at all times? What IS your ultimate utopia?
I want to encounter a city where— information technology probably wouldn't work logistically, simply I want to run into a urban center where the whole priority is everything looks beautiful, and compages is the priority, and arts is the priority. Imagine walking through a metropolis where all the buildings were built to exist interesting, or pleasing, and all work together.
But isn't that the society nosotros live in now? We're so caught up in the dazzler of everything, and that comes in with capitalism, too, considering yous're trying to sell beauty? We're all so obsessed with the dazzler of everything.
I don't call back so considering then think about how much stuff is built merely to brand money, or just because it's practical. Obviously, not everyone is an artist, only I will imagine a world, or a urban center, where everything was congenital with art in listen, and that'south the priority. And then I don't know, yous walk into a fucking Target, or a grocery store, instead of them playing fucking old Michelle Co-operative, they're playing absurd new, someone'south curating it. And it'south like, "Oh this is a cool song. What is this?" And everywhere you go, is just skillful curation in mind.
Okay. Is the sky a certain colour, or not?
I like bluish. The simulation's kind of beautiful. Maybe blue hour would be extended past three hours, I love bluish hour, but information technology merely lasts 5 minutes, I wish it lasted like an hour. Blueish hour is correct after the sunset goes down, or right before the sunday comes upwards, where the sky isn't orange yet, simply everything is like dusk blue.
Large Girls Do Cry: On Music and Emotional Release with Amelia Moore
Go along reading for office's full interview with Amelia below, where nosotros discuss her next project, emotional freedom, and why the color orangish has impacted her life and so profoundly.
I read that yous gained a love for music by singing with a choir when y'all were immature. That is a very passionate and prideful blazon of music. What skills or lessons did you bring with you from your choir days to your music now?
Amelia — Wow. That's a really good question. I grew upward singing in church pretty much from four years sometime until I left for college at 17. There wasn't that much technique involved. I feel like there isn't, in church singing. It'south kind of just like, 'If you feel chosen and the Lord wants you to sing, you lot're gonna sing,' right? I just really, really fell in love with singing and being on stage in general. I've taken a lot of inspiration from choirs, in general, into my music. Fifty-fifty whenever I'grand writing my lyrics today — without even realizing the influence of church and biblical references that I grew upwards learning — those things just seep their way into my lyrics and into my writing now, which I beloved. It was such an of import part of me growing up. I took less of actually learning how to sing from growing up in choir and more of merely being inspired by the sound and I'yard very interested in using it in my music today.
I think that's kind of a natural progression as well. These things from your by find their mode into your music without it even being intentional, which is the example for a lot of artists. I want to talk nigh something else that you did when you were younger — you played violin, right? I read that you lot quit subsequently a fourth dimension because of feeling like it was a bit too restrictive. What practise you feel like singing and piano provide you lot that violin didn't?
I started playing violin when I was four or five and I played for nearly seven years. Initially, I only wanted to first playing because my older sister was, and I just wanted to be like her. But then I started to get really good. And as you said, you know, the violin is a very technical instrument. You're learning somebody else's music, you're learning how to exist in position correctly, and you're learning how the person who composed their music wants you to play it. That was interesting to me for a while. But then as a child, I didn't even know how uninspiring it was and how bromidic by that I was. I recall existence pretty immature and trying to write my ain songs on violin and I took 1 of them to my violin instructor and played it for him. He was like, 'Oh, okay, that'southward absurd. And then let's get back to practicing sheet music.' I just got really bored with it. Quitting was really, really hard considering my parents loved hearing me play so much. Toward the last couple years of me playing, I definitely felt like I was just doing it to make them happy, even at such a young age. Merely as soon equally I quit, my dad bought me a lite-up Casio keyboard and it felt similar absolute liberty. There was no canvas music. There was no technique. I wasn't in lessons. I was literally merely learning everything by ear or from YouTube or from the buttons that would literally light up on the keyboard. It was just fun. And I could do whatever I wanted; there wasn't somebody telling me to practise for however many hours a day. I could practice as long as I wanted for whatever I wanted. I started writing songs on piano when I was eleven or 12. I just remember watching piano tutorials on YouTube for One Direction songs. That's how I started learning and teaching myself pianoforte and I still write on the pianoforte today.
I dearest that y'all learned One Direction songs because I literally was obsessed. I had a One Direction Tumblr — I was one of those girls.
I was a Directioner for sure. Still am.
Then now to come up from all of that to just recently coming off your tour with Fletcher — that's so amazing. What was your general overall experience touring with her?
These Fletcher shows were my first big girl, full ring with runway shows. The first show that I played in LA was a trivial acoustic set up at The Hotel Buffet. Information technology wasn't even my own show. I was but playing a set with a couple friends. But the Fletcher tour was absolutely insane. It was the best first bout I could have ever imagined. I'm and so fucking thankful that she invited me to exist a function of that tour. I call up the get-go testify in San Francisco, I was so, so, so nervous the whole day. Oh my gosh. I just call back feeling like an absolute, crazy person. I was freaking out, but just seeing everybody, equally soon as I got upward in that location, was the most surreal feeling in the entire world. I'm also so lucky to have gotten the opportunity to go on bout when I have such little music out. I basically got to tour my EP that'due south about to drop before anyone's heard it and see what songs the audience reacted to. It was such a great experience. And I'm so thankful, for certain, and excited to become back on the route.
Did y'all take ane song that y'all really liked performing or a song that got the best crowd reaction?
I think the crowd favorite consistently every single nighttime was this song called 'Over My Ex' and it'south non even on this upcoming EP, it's gonna come out shortly afterward. Just information technology was the second song I played and I fabricated it a drinking game for everybody. So my intro into the song was, 'I demand you to drink every time I say the word ex,' which was a lot of times in this song. So people were only really engaged and interacting with information technology, which felt really good. So I'1000 excited to put that vocal out later this summer.
Getting that crowd reaction has to be incredible. I can run into information technology now, even with your hair color, that the color orange plays a big role in your personal fashion and in your life. If you had to assign a color to your aura, would it exist orange or would it be a different color?
I think it would definitely still exist orange. Orange is the color of inventiveness and energy. I feel like I want to keep those things very close to me at all times. I feel like they already are. Merely, I don't know — maybe my aureola is a unlike color. I should effigy that out. I do feel like it'south orange though.
I accept a feeling it might be orange as well. Through my deep dive, I also found that you've mentioned that you meet your world in orangish. Merely aside from the color orange, what else characterizes Amelia's world — what does Amelia'due south world look like and feel like?
Amelia's world is not only orange, just as well extremely emotional and vulnerable, and silly and playful. Sonically, I've been experimenting with some more hyper-pop sounds recently — and so very vivid and loud. But I besides love beingness inspired by more than R&B vocal performances. So it'southward besides silky and shine and sultry at times also. But likewise e'er-changing, like the ocean. I love being diverse in the music that I make. I also dear writing for other artists and experimenting with different genres and not keeping myself in a box. Simply there'southward a lot going on in Amelia's world. I'grand wearing this hospital gown right now, just for the style — just to experiment. Amelia'south world is also total of style. I'1000 really excited to show all of the looks that we merely shot in this music video. But my world is just continuing to aggrandize and grow as my fan base does. I'm really excited to show everybody all of these different sides of who I am in my artist project.
I tin can't wait to see the video that you lot're talking about right now, too. While we're nonetheless talking about the color orangish, I found that yous take shown some love for something else orange — that I also hold shut to my heart, which is Frank Sea's Aqueduct Orange anthology. That album impacted my life so deeply. Was it an impactful album for your musical procedure as well?
Frank Ocean's music was only and then pivotal for me. Listening to him for the beginning time was merely admittedly life-changing. But, I will say, the get-go album that really rocked my globe was Justin Timberlake'south 2022 Experience. I didn't really listen to that much secular music growing up, because I wasn't actually allowed to. I was very sheltered and homeschooled and religious and my parents kept me from a lot of pop culture. But that album was one of the first secular CDs that my mom e'er kept in the car because she's such a Justin Timberlake fan. I remember listening to that for the first time, just being like, 'Holy shit — these harmonies, these drums!' All of the songs on that album are also then long. And they each take extended versions of the radio versions of each song itself. It was just so inspiring to me. That was definitely the first album that made me realize, 'Wow, I want to do something like this.' And I'm still very inspired by that album today.
And you tin can really hear those influences in your music as well. There are so many layers to information technology and it's a actually dynamic listening experience. Another affair, aside from your personality, that characterizes your persona is your Instagram handle — Icryatwork. I feel like the girls who get it, become information technology. Sometimes you only need to have a good cry. What'southward your favorite place to cry in?
Wow. At that place are so many different places. I experience like a spot that always hits is in the machine or simply in bed or in the bath. Those are three go-tos. I will say though — only as a trivial sneak peek about this music video that I shot this past weekend. While we were shooting, I was in this super intense moment and feeling the lyrics and I only completely, in the center of the shoot, started total out sobbing. That's probably gonna brand the concluding cut. So, also, I weep on-set of my music videos. That might take the number ane spot really.
Yeah, I call up that has to exist number 1. That's a expert one — a very niche one.
Aye, very, very niche. I'm really excited to see how that video comes together.
On a similar note, yous spoke earlier almost being actually in tune with your emotions, which I think is so of import for emotional growth. And I remember that through your music, yous tin can sense that this is someone who is actually in bear on with this side of themselves. Do y'all see your music as an emotional release?
Absolutely. My first EP happened because I needed to release and feel all of the emotions that I was going through. That's honestly the main reason why I started writing songs so young — I was just feeling so many different means about then many dissimilar things. I was growing up and I didn't wanna talk to everyone about information technology. So I would just sit down at the piano and write the worst songs nearly how I was feeling. It was very therapeutic and has always been very therapeutic. It felt like a healthy way of processing. I made this whole side by side project with some of my best friends, so music has always been and will always be for me a actually good for you outlet. I'm so lucky to accept this medium, where people can hear what I write and also know that they're not the simply ones that experience that way.
Yes, for sure. Information technology's a personal, emotional release, merely it has to be incredible to put your feelings on paper and know that it resonates with other people besides.
Just getting it on the page feels keen. And and then it's like, 'Okay, wow, I got that i off my chest.' Something that I've found that's really funny is that sometimes I'll write a song because I demand to listen to myself more. Y'all know, whenever you're listening to a vocal and y'all're like, 'Oh my God, I feel that.' I'll literally do that with my own songs. So even writing information technology to process my own feelings is a function of my artistic process.
Totally, that makes sense. It's this idea of the music beingness a release, but in this instance, it too tin bring clarity. I'm certain sometimes you don't fifty-fifty know what you're feeling and so you listen to a song or write i, and it's like, 'Oh, that's how I'm feeling.' I really think that's super profound. What was the full general inspiration backside your latest track, 'Crybaby' and the corresponding video?
'Crybaby' is so special to me and I wrote information technology with my friend Jackson Lee Morgan and my producers Iverness and Pink Slip. I knew I wanted to write a song called 'Crybaby.' It's very on- make. I've been wanting to make a carol in six-eight for a long fourth dimension besides. I was going through this annoying, stupid breakdown and I was feeling every single line of what nosotros wrote and writing it did non take long at all because of how intensely we were feeling these emotions. It happened very naturally and seamlessly. We wrote information technology and I kind of already saw in my head, 'Okay — grand pianoforte in the rain.' I didn't take to think twice about it. Seeing that come up together in existent life was really cool. I'm really proud of that video and I'one thousand happy that information technology'south out.
I mean, information technology'due south beautiful. You should be proud. Looking ahead now — yous've been named an artist to sentinel in 2022 by many publications and critics. What practise you hope the rest of 2022 brings yous and your music?
2022 for me is all about setting the groundwork for what'south to come. This outset project is something that I'm so proud of. I retrieve it'due south the perfect introduction to really show people what I desire to say and the kind of music that I want to make. But for the rest of this year, I'yard really just focused on making the best music possible for the upcoming yr. We just have and then much planned already. So yeah — 2022, nosotros're laying the groundwork, showing people who Amelia Moore is. Setting up 2023 to simply smack everybody in the face with some incredible side by side-level music and visuals and, y'all know, standing to grow more into myself and inviting everybody else along the way, who are willing to get emotional and cry with me.
