Kev is a great guy. I was lucky enough to play on the same bill for a couple of shows, which included some traveling together, and he was so nice and friendly. Really genuine soul.
that's an amazing story about the ICE album. I was working the night shift at 7-11 at the time it came out and played it pretty much non stop. At this point there are only a few tracks that I still think hold up but it was a damn influential album to me at the time.
I've seen the Bug some days ago. My body has been heavily massaged by the bass lines :). I totally understand Kevin's explanation of his approach to volumes and bass lines, as a listener that's exactly the feeling I want to get at such performances.
is so tough to survive as underground producer im in the same page even harder in undeveloped coutries like here but you are so right terror keeps me goingi dont have other choice , i feel terrible with a regular job i cant lie to my soul
It’s called Bad Blood. It’s an AMAZING album. Honestly so surprised he wasn’t satisfied with it because it’s one of my favorite albums from him due to its amazing collaboration of artists and sounds so unique and genre crossing
Can redbull change this prosaic institutional format ? this idol and cult worship is pretty done with today .. Bug or Rug, RedBull should actually impart useful skills, education, facilitate emerging artists, regions and music. After all the organisation makes millions of dollars every year selling a harmful drink.
@@LeGronk There's no need for that - What I pointed out is institutional hegemony and dull chauvinism of sorts. It could change, especially since theres so much new music and talent.
@@AudioPervert1 ugh, spare me your self-serving politics. people like you throw around the word "hegemony" in irrelevant contexts and make the word (and the underlying cause) a joke. what there's no need for is your original post, which smacks of bitterness at others' success. some of us want to hear from these artists and see them get the credit they're due, especially someone like Kevin who has struggled long and hard to get to where he is today. take the piss out of Red Bull all you want, that doesn't matter, but disrespecting the artist is not on.
when i heard Skeng and Poison Dart around 2008 it was a game changer here in Mexico City, stayed in my heart

Kevin The Don. Underground Legend. Massive Respect.

Real talk. Thank you
I want to hear him do an album with a tin can and 1 effects pedal, for me that in itself is an inspirational thing to say. loving his work.

Great interview. Who's the interviewer?
Too short... need more.
Genius
Not one single track played!
Due to copyright unfortunately
Due to multi million $ corporation Red Bull nor wanting to pay a few pennies to the artists they exploit
It's more a case of videos getting blocked in certain territories than the revenue from a few thousand views

RBMA is shutting down soon, so I guess your wish is granted.
you don't sound embittered or self-entitled at all.
@@user82938 Is it? How so?
It was not my wish - However RBMA's institutional hegemony is boring.
