We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Louder Rain. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Louder below.
Louder , looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. Can you talk to us about how you learned to do what you do?
We still have not figured it out. The craft is distant. We are on the journey. These sounds reflect this.
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
Louder Rain’s journey started as a young adults. We met as two pairs of best friends that linked up to fill an open slot for a local Christian festival that never did come to fruition. That band continued on for a while, experimenting with various progressive hard rock and jazz fusion incarnations until eventually dissolving, all the while building a strong friendship between Cameren and Chance.
Ultimately, this led to Cameren and Chance testing the electronic music waters as a duo, to fill their needs for Garage, Dubstep, and Drum and Bass. Their sound continues growing today as their discography is an assortment of sub-genres stemming from flow state recording sessions at spontaneous times of day and night.
With a penchant for moody fuzz meeting electronic beats, there’s an alchemical marriage of pop overtones and some kind of post-Freudian darkness that we can’t seem to put our finger on but still carries some of the vibes of the original project that brought us together.
Any resources you can share with us that might be helpful to other creatives?
If Youtube came out in the late 90s when we both started to hover around those giant boxes that were once innovative in size for computers. But, also dial-up was not 300 mbps like you can get these days with a modem. But youtube has always been crucial to our journey. When we crave Bireli Lagrene playing in front of a dapper crowd, or a video on the hollow earth theory, or a docu of badass musicans in the making of an album, Youtube has been there for us. Timeless
Can you share your view on NFTs? (Note: this is for education/entertainment purposes only, readers should not construe this as advice)
This is a funny question: One of us is a total crypto-nerd, and really saw the potential in music sales, and ownership to be maybe too good to be true. Music could be on the Artists’ terms. Creating a smart contract, and then fractionalizing the value of a song, or stems out to a multitude of collectors and music fans had an exciting approach to ownership, and staying close to communities. Grant it, there was some marketing gurus’ out there that made a fortune on music NFTs, and others that made a mockery of it all. Ultimately, the sentiment in the crypto-sphere still stands strong in which the goal is financial sovereignty, and whether NFTs have a seat at the table, will really be telling, as regulation stirs the pot. The idea, and the actions others took were, and still are clutch as fuck. Maybe, we dabbled in it. Maybe, we didnt…
