Its been a period of change and growth. Like other artists, most of my shows were cancelled (i.e. first Australia tour, biggest Asia tour to date) and I began to spiral, struggling to find inspiration: on top of that, I ended a seven year relationship. But sometimes to find your future, you have to let go of the past. 

I stumbled into this new world called web3, with its vibrant communities and tech and memes. As I delved deeper, inspired by its creativity and energy, I realized that as artists, autonomy is all we have.     For so long, musicians have been sold a snake oil game, that theres only one way to win - breakout hit, go viral on social media, major label deal, arena tour - but there are also serious pitfalls, including the trap of getting handcuffed and losing creative control of our vision while reducing the value of our art to pennies. After some thought (and encouragement from a couple friends) I said no thanks, walking away from a traditional three album record deal that was on the table. I decided to bet on myself on this new playing field with limitless potential.

Over U is the beginning of that journey - as the first single from my next EP. It is a declaration that the past is done with and a celebration of all to come, a party record to sweat it out and kick off a new year. I hope it brings a smile to your face.

I"ve always admired that mixtapes are central to how we share our love of music - with our friends, partners and listeners. On the flip side, beat tapes have been the staple of producers since the advent of the reel-to-reel. Combining the two, I set out to do what has never been done in web3: drop a 10 track mix of exclusive unreleased music on Sound.xyz that allows the audience to engage and decide for themselves what comes next.

The Golden Egg winner will choose their favorite track, which I will complete and mint next - they will also receive said track first in advance of the public. This is an experimental foray, a sketchbook of sound. This is Club Dunn 01.
