Avoid Dave is the brainchild of singer/songwriter/guitarist Taavi Paomets. After years of working with alt-rock band Aides and songwriting for and performing with some of the biggest pop acts in Estonia, one could say that Taavi definitely has an ear for mixing infectious grooves with catchy melodies that stay with you like the one from that new top40 song. After we learned that other than writing arguably some of the best tracks for many Estonian artists, he also has loads of solo material that has this unique sound and is nothing short of amazing in production quality - just collecting digital dust, we quickly agreed to put out his solo EP.

"Erasing Frames EP" is a soul-inspired journey into electronica with infectious grooves, backed by deep harmonies, infused with Dave's vocals. Even though we can't really draw any comparison to other Estonian artist because he doesn't sound like any other artist we know, there is still something very Estonian about his sound. At least, we think so. All five tracks are winners in our opinion and it's seriously hard to single out any of them - it will be up to you to choose your favorite..

OYT is 

Busta – friends know him as bustaott, the general public as a radio show host at Raadio 2, a beatbox enthusiast and the number one drum’n'bass MC in Estonia.

Sander Mölder – seven years of cello tuition set the stage for Sander Mölder’s musical exploits, granular synthesis and electro-acoustics, he is now the driving force behind OYT’s music. Currently working on his masters degree in composition from the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre, he has played in and produced for various bands and projects. Once a member of the Estonian nu-jazz group Cosmoskva. You can catch him playing keyboards in Leslie Da Bass live outfit, doing solo live performances with a laptop and a controller or playing one of his trademark soulful eclectic DJ-sets.

S.I.N – the man behind engineering the sound of OYT is widely regarded as the number one drum’n'bass DJ and producer in Estonia who’s been active in the scene since 1998. He has been releasing drum’n’bass and dubstep originals and remixes under record labels like Spearhead, Formation, Hospital, Med School, Viper, Nemesis, World Of Drum’n’Bass, DSCI4 and others. His collabo track with Mutated Forms titled “Right Now” found it’s way on dnb icon Goldie’s FabricLive mix album in 2011. He has been working with sound for TV, radio ads & films, as well as arranging sound for various shows and performances. 

OYT's live show also adds drummer Kaspar Kalluste into the mix - he's been banging the sticks for many of Estonia's biggest artists and was just recently awarded with the young jazz talent of the year award!

WHAT ABOUT ME - Avoid Dave ft. Vaiper & Napo

Had some fun.  Something to ride down the FDR to on a late night with the top down, reflecting on life.. like  Rocky in that one scene after Apollo died. Word.

Tahan vaadata ometi vabalt,
kuid mul silmi pole seal.
Võtan kätte ja keerutan saba.
Kas nüüd hakkab hea?

Seisan ikka veel siin samas.
Teadmata, kas lahkungi?
Võtan kätte ja keerutan saba
ja tervitan Sind uuesti.

Nüüd saan vaadata ometi vabalt
siis kui silmades on hea.
Pole olemas tallatud rada,
mida jalg enam ei vea.
