big griz and stuff 🤙

2014 has been filled with many ups and downs. A lot of different events in the past year really made me think twice about what everything means, both in my career and my life. I feel like I’m a pretty ambitious person, but recently I have been contemplating WHY I want to be successful as a producer/musician. I’ve come to realize that my ego was hard at work. The need to impress people, to be the best, and to showoff were some of my motivators to reach  success. I’m hoping to completely change that in the new year. 

I don’t want to change my goals and aspirations, they’re bigger and more ambitious than ever. However, what I DO want to change are the intentions for those goals (the WHY). Instead of stroking my ego, I want to make the best music I can make simply for the sake of spreading joy and progressing the art. Instead of putting unique sounds in my songs to seem “cool” or  “different” from other producers, I want a listener to be inspired to make something unique themselves.

So for 2015, I want to take a big mental shift away from my ego. Just drop that motherfucker and free up mental space to really make great music for the sake of great music. That’s what comes first! The branding, marketing, merch, etc. come second. Honestly just writing this stuff down and sharing it with you feels really good. 

I hope that we all have a sweet 2015 ahead of us! I deeply appreciate all the support you guys have given me so far. I have a ton of news (I know I keep saying that) that I will be sharing shortly! Cheers!

P.S. Here is new song for you to take into the new year with you ;)

Fresh off a 45 date North American tour, CloZee returns to Gravitas Recordings with a five track album entitled “Harmony”. This much anticipated follow-up to 2015’s “Revolution” explores a more focused narrative than its predecessors, with smooth grooves and fluid synthesis combining with the French producer’s familiar ethnic instrumentation. However, the offering isn’t void of proper punch; each song pulls from various popular electronic music sub-genres in creative ways, fusing hard-hitting verses in parallel with the more graceful elements. The entire release is available as a pay-what-you-want download, following CloZee’s tradition of making each of her songs as widely available as possible for continued consumption.

Westwood is proud to present The Funk Hunters long awaited debut full-length album 'TYPECAST'.

Featuring collaborations with industry heavy-weights; Dynamite MC, Leo Napier, Grammy Winner WANZ, and many more!
