‘Coast’ sees bad tuner jump deep into the house realm with a rich and soulful production. Quicky vocal samples echo around a punchy bass line and soft synth lead line. The lyrics are the result of a serendipitous connection with DJ and visual artist Sofia Luna. “Coast was a new way of working for me. I sent Sofia a poem I wrote in English and she translated it to French and recorded it” bad tuner explains, “at the time I was working on an instrumental that paired perfectly with the cadence and tonality of her voice.”
Partnered with the release comes a music video that takes the viewer deep within the Brooklyn underground scene. The visual was recorded at the last show bad tuner played before the shutdown, with the high-octane performers and an intimate crowd making for a nostalgic visual.
“Performing on stage with dancers is an instrumental part of my live show and inspires the way I write and record.”- bad tuner
