My Hollow Drum is the crew.
Co. fee is the artist.
Easy Listening is the EP.
This is the interview.
Your EP is thrown into a film-morphing machine. What kind film will be pumped out and who directed it?
It would be dope if it were comedy heist film. Tarantino and Guy Ritchie are already huge influences on my music so it would make sense if one of them directed it.
I just dropped some acid and threw "Easy Listening" in the tape deck, what's going to happen to me?
You’ll think you’re at some desert party in the middle east partying with monsters shooting lasers out their mouths???
Question with a question…
It's 30 years from now and you're on VH1. How will they story go describing the creative process of Easy Listening?
For most of that year I was on a healthy diet of Junk food, B-movies, all-nighters, Madvillain, and Ludacris' Word of Mouf. I wanted to make music that reflected all of my influences at the time. All of those songs weren’t even meant to be on one release but it all worked out to glue together as one project. I had a good time making all those songs and I feel like I really pushed myself creatively with it.
Just out of curiosity. Who are your current top five chess players?
Sorry to say I don’t know any professional chess players :( so I’ll just say
Stanley Kubrick and GZA.
I suggest you do some homework. Let’s processed to the next question.
What can we expect next from Co. fee?
I'm planning on putting out another EP. This project will be a little different from what I usually make, dark psychedelic stuff. I’m a big fan of Italian library music and horror soundtracks so the EP will be influenced by those sounds. I also have some collabs in the works. I just finished producing an EP for a dope MC named Note. I’m cooking up some new, new tracks with Jonti and that has been fun. Then last, I’ll be working on my album, which will be a follow up to Easy Listening. Overall I’m pretty much keeping myself busy for 2012.
