He had one of those CD turntable things that he traded to E. I’m not even sure if he legally acquired these things, but he would show up with random stuff and try to trade it. He would try to trade us computer monitors and random stuff for a little bit of studio time…
Hes a member of the rap collective Buffet Boys alongside Fat Nick and Pouya. Not being able to pay for studio time was the only thing keeping him out of the studio. Germ is an American rapper, producer and skateboarder from Atlanta, Georgia. Was he just as much of a studio rat in the early days as he was in LA? figured that out, too, when we all were in together. That’s all I thought of him as, at first. I think that surprised both of us because, like I said, I met him as Easy Mac. At this point, it was just go to the studio, see what happens, and have fun.īiggest surprise during the sessions? Eric was very surprised that he could play any instrument. He didn’t really start feeling pressure until after Blue Slide Park got some bad reviews. I don’t think he felt like there was pressure yet. It was pretty carefree back then for everybody. He had some other people in there… I recorded 90 percent of it, too. Were all the big moments the simple moments? played live bass on it, and that was really all. I was messing with it in the studio that day and heard it. I might’ve sampled it in 2005, or something. At the time, we were just having fun and that was probably the best part about it, honestly.īring me back to the making of the original “Best Day Ever.” It was just fun! Everything was so new for everybody, it was like… Nobody was thinking about money stuff. What was the general energy like for the BDE sessions? We became closer, and I understood that he was more talented than I originally thought. We kinda connect, and he was persistent so we started working like that.
Germ the poducer mac#
Around 2008, 2009 I would see Mac around, working with other people. A little later, in 2008, I interned at ID Labs as an engineer. He got a beat off me back then for something off The High Life. He was still Easy Mac at the time and I didn’t really take him seriously at first. The German beer scene is actually more complex than many people think and the country produces a vast range of lagers and ales. The casual beer drinker can be forgiven for thinking that all German brewers produce the same stuff. He was 16 and I think he might’ve heard stuff I did for Wiz. Think German beer and it is likely that a pale, straw-colored German Pilsner is the first thing to pop into your mind. I met him, probably, through MySpace honestly. Talk to me about when you first got in with Mac, what really drew you to working with him? Egg and sperm cells are called germ cells, in contrast to the other cells of the body, which are called somatic cells. As time goes on, it just feels weird not seeing him at the holidays. Germ line refers to the sex cells (eggs and sperm) that sexually reproducing organisms use to pass on their genomes from one generation to the next (parents to offspring). We hadn’t talked a whole lot, so when everything happened, it didn’t feel real at first. I lived with Malcolm for a little bit in LA, two years ago, and then he’s busy out there and I was living in Pittsburgh. Our conversation, lightly edited for content and clarity, follows below.
