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

Andre aka COPYCATT is a neuro hop producer originally from the Sunshine Coast in Australia, who is currently based in Melbourne.

In this interview we dive deep into the reality of artist burnout, and how rapid success can be difficult to process and comprehend. We discuss the role of social media in his burnout and how seeking external validation was a big part of that, especially being disconnected from his main scene in the US.

Later on, we explore his sound design process, and how post-processing with saturation, OTT, and other FX are key to getting his neuro basses sound massive. We chat about his latest EP, Trash, and how the sound design on that was representative of his detailed approach to processing and resampling.

If you're wanting some key career and production advice, tune in for the whole thing.

#161: COPYCATT on Creative Burnout, Social Media & Bass Post-Processing

It'd been a while since I made any bass music so it's been fun to get back to it.

Some recent clips

"I don’t live in either my past or my future. I’m interested only in the present. If you can concentrate always on the present, you’ll be a happy man. Life will be a party for you, a grand festival because life is the moment we’re living now.“
- Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

The immensity of being pulled in a thousand different directions can be straining, I first and foremost understand this through my own day-to-day life. As the world becomes more interconnected through technology, I find that we are less and less caught up in the present moment. One would think that life is long enough, that life grants a generous amount of time to find themselves, accomplish one's greatest dreams, and find true happiness and fulfillment. It's unfortunate that when this time is squandered in luxury and carelessness and given to no good end and forced finally by it being an ultimate necessity we perceive that it has passed away before we were aware that it was passing. 

I think it is safe to conclude that the life we are blessed with is not short, but we ourselves make it so. Stay present, stay in the moment, and be good to those around you.
