Episode 43: CyanBlue
Manage episode 367647356 series 3489547
On "Hot Takes" this week, we had a sitdown session with future funk hit-maker CyanBlue! Enigmatic, eccentric, and extremely skilled, we brought Cyan on to fill us in, treat us to some of his insights, and expose any uninitiated viewers to his outrageous personality. Having been producing music outside the vaporwave and future funk scene for the past ten years, CyanBlue exploded on the scene in October, 2021 with "Cyantology", a phenomenal album comprised of chopped and looped 80's R&B and new jack swing. Not only did he revitalize the scene, as he would claim, but he's since gone on to collaborate with many renowned acts and will be releasing a remix album of "Cyantology" in late March as well. For episode forty-three, we discussed the skills of various future funk and French house acts. CyanBlue imparted his thoughts on anime in future funk music, Death's Dynamic Shroud, Macintosh Plus, and metal music. Hearing CyanBlue repeatedly shoehorn in ways to sell the audience on the new CyanBlue in that wild accent of his was a hilarious highlight! As he stated, "Good future funk is future funk that is chopped; lazy future funk is in my opinion simply mislabeled French house." Don't miss this zany episode with our new friend CyanBlue!
