Kenton Dunson recently linked up with up and coming electronic producer Hollidayrain to create a hot summer single titled “Up”. This song is totally different from the music Kenton has done in the past but he absolutely kills it. Think Ford Mustang meets Hip Hop. It started off as just a one minute cut that Hollidayrain was unsure how to finish, so he sent the stems over to Kenton and the rest is history.
“For me, producing “Up” started really humbly. After finishing up spring semester, I started something like 7 or 8 original tracks simultaneously; but I had a hard time finishing them knowing that each of them had potential to destroy dancefloors and radios. So, one night, I decided to set those aside and focus solely on sound design and instrumentation using one of my favorite up-and-coming artists, Mord Fustang, as inspiration. I made some really nice sounds using several synths like zebra2 and NI Massive and just let the melodies flow into a 1 minute cut. After a great response to this clip after I uploaded it onto my soundcloud page, I knew it had an opportunity to become a great track. So, I sent it to Kenton, and the rest is history!”
