Sebastian Carandang is the Asian American artist known as Yeek. With less than $1000 in his bank account he packed his car and set out from Florida to Los Angeles with dreams of becoming a musician. Now on his second EP Sebastian he’s found his rhythm. Mixing electronic, hip hop and indie music in refreshing way.
Alone is a brief summary of how a twenty-something year old deals with love, heartbreak, depression or just finding their self in general. With drugs and alcohol. We live in a generation where everything is easily accessible. As self destructive as it may be it’s how most of us cope. I can relate to wanting to mask my feelings with drugs and alcohol so this song is comforting to me. I know I’m not alone in this behavior. And isn’t that the point of making music? To put in words what others can’t and show that we all share the same experiences, to connect with each other through music? I think Yeek is doing a pretty good job if you ask me.

Make Me Feel Like Your Bitch – Parallelephants
23 August 2018
Parallelephants are a local synth pop band based out of San Antonio TX. Since I currently reside there, I’m pretty hip to what’s popular as far as local talent goes. This is my favorite local band and they don’t half as much love as they deserve in my opinion. Their unique blend of electronic, alternative and hip hop gives them a unique voice in the city that can’t be easily replicated.
Starfruit LA – Choker
16 August 2018
Choker is back for his second EP Honeybloom and I couldn’t be happier. Seemingly out of nowhere he dropped this project with little to no promotion. Not one for social media, only sporting a Twitter account that tweets about twice a year. Choker mysteriously crept back onto the scene with a cryptic tweet stating that his new project was out now. He’s the type of artist who communicates through music only. And he has every right to because Honeybloom is amazing from start to finish.
