My latest album, Frozen in Motion emerged from fragments of recordings made from snippets of life in New York City - conversations at a cafe, commuters swiping their subway passes, a marimba player on the street - the idea was to scour the recordings and seek out rhythms, melodies and textures embedded in the sound, using them as building blocks for songs. 

My music has been described as “impressionist electro” and has been compared to Boards Of Canada, Plaid, Royksopp, Orbital, and Tycho.

Not Your Ordinary Love Song
A common misconception after the initial introduction of Carverdale (She’s Alright), some people assume that David is singing about his love for a woman with a precarious lifestyle and past. However, the song is much deeper than that. Carverdale (She’s Alright) is a Love Song for the neighborhood David was raised in; Carverdale. Yes, this is a song to the ghetto that raised David Sha. This is a Love song for all the ghettos, the slums, los barrios, the sections, and the ‘hoods across the Globe. We all know that despite the hardships and misconceptions of living in the ghetto, some of the world’s most respected individuals will not be who they have become today. The challenges of living in the grasps of poverty have made the strong, even stronger. Regardless of the fact that to some, the ghetto may seem undesirable, but to David Sha, She’s Alright with him! Stay UGLY!

A few months ago I posted about Brooklyn’s Phone Tag’s three tracks which apparently turned out to be rough cuts that were still being tweaked and refined. Last month those three tracks as well as three new productions were compiled and put together as the Look and Feel EP which can be purchased both as a digital album as well as a very limited cassette release through Bandcamp. The updated versions of the three previous tracks are now near flawless and this newer single Only With You is just as moving. The tender honest vocal work fits in perfectly with the relaxed electronic pop sounds found here. I hope you enjoy this single as much as I have and be sure to have a listen to the entire EP found here.

UK's Alex Clare is starting to bubble up to the surface.  His forthcoming album, due out later this year, is produced Diplo & Switch (Major Lazer) and it full soul wrenching vocals mixed with dubstep vibes.  Here is the video for the latest single, "Too Close"

Dropping Gems is proud to announce the release of the compilation album Gem Drops. As a central goal of the project, 100% of the revenue from Gem Drops will be donated to the American Cancer Society to support cancer research. We’ve assembled 21 tracks of amazing new material that expresses everything we love about experimental electronic hip-hop-inspired music today. Artists featured include Shigeto, yuk., Devonwho, Sumsun, Anenon, and Ages, just to name a few. We went to those we trust: friends, family, and artists from all corners of the U.S. who push boundaries and infuse their work with heart and soul. Gem Drops brings together a diverse array of styles, but remains focused on spotlighting the kind of future-sound sensibility that makes modern music worth listening to.
