You’re probably expecting to read about who our next Resident Artist is in this first paragraph, thinking we got all cutesy with some click bait-style headline. C’mon – you should know us better than that by now. The name of our next Resident Artist is actually in the headline. That’s right – all this month we’re highlighting the delightfully weird, whacky, and dog-loving So-Cal duo um..
These two have had quite the ride since forming at Icon Collective. They first got their feet wet back in December of ’14 with their interpretation of Awe’s “Griffin.” That offering was included in LA powerhouse collective Team Supreme’s Vol. 127, which put them amongst top notch acts like Plastician, King Henry, Yung Orca, and more.
From there, um.. released their debut EP, Pay Attention, which garnered tremendous support from tastemakers, bloggers, and music lovers around the globe. In fact, the three-track collection hit #2 on the Beatport Electronica Album Chart and #12 on the Overall Album Chart. Pretty damn impressive for their first EP.
Ben Bruce and Dylan Gold are now looking ahead to their next EP, Do It For the Kids, which will be rolled out over the next few weeks. On top of that, we hope they’re pretty damn stoked to join the ranks of our Residency program.
Stay tuned for some rad, exclusive content throughout the next four weeks, starting on Monday. Until then, enjoy this tasty collection of some of our favorite tracks.
