This week, Crimson Child sat down to chat for the EDM Prodcast.

Yashar aka Crimson Child is an experimental bass music producer who has garnered the attention of industry staples in the past few years.

His recent LP, Eleventh Hour, came out on Space Yacht this year, and in this interview, we dive into the process behind it and how he had most of the album done before it was even signed to a label.

The sound design in the album is a particular highlight, so we cover some of his go-to techniques for achieving a gritty, cinematic feel in electronic music.

We also talk about his future plans, including focusing on a potential techno alias and how working in different genres can help your creative process.

Woven in the surface a premonition of a land erupting
a sparkling occasion of a city crashdown! overhead
Revolv'n in a whirlpool a drag-o-rama walk'n on the
sidewalk so let me see ya howl'n through the keyhole
