“4 Levels”
Anohni is a singer and songwriter initially from England, who began placing out music in 2000. She’s launched 6 albums, and won the Mercury Prize. She’s additionally been nominated for two Brit Awards, and an Oscar. For this episode, I talked to her in regards to the track “4 Degrees,” from her 2016 album, Hopelessness. It is perhaps unusual to explain a track about local weather change as an anthem, however that’s what I feel it’s, and it feels extra pressing with each passing 12 months. It’s additionally considered one of my most listened-to songs. It was produced by two of my favourite digital musicians: Daniel Lopatin, aka Oneohtrix Point Never, and Ross Birchard, aka Hudson Mohawke. I bought to talk to Ross about how he began the observe on his personal, earlier than it grew to become a collaboration between the three of them. That is an episode that I’ve been making an attempt to make occur since 2016. Right here it’s.
