About Me:
As I sit outside of one of Bermudas popular Pubs Swizzle Inn and sip the very potent rum concoction named after the pub I realize that the band, or husband and wife duo, 1undread dont quite fit their surroundings. It does not take long to figure out the popular form of music in Bermuda are Reggae, Dance Hall, R&B, and Hip Hop but 1undread are an Electronic hybrid of styles. Brian Swan the music programmer, who also works as a music teacher at a local High School, explains, We incorporate all of these styles into our music but my wife (Nic Swan, the vocalist of the duo) is from Leeds. Thats where we met. We are both influenced by Drum n Bass, Acid Jazz, Trip Hop and IDM as well as the music that you hear in the local scene so as a result you end up with this bass heavy mind twisting sound. An interesting thing about 1undreads music is that even though the music is bass heavy mind twisting similar to Square Pusher or Tim Exile the vocals, in contrast, are bluesy, and Jazzy with a limited amount of effects. The vocals seem to make the music, which on its own has limited commercial appeal, accessible to a wider audience. Nic, who has also worked as a DJ and belly dancer explains, Vocals play an important part in popular music, the voice is what people hang on to for many reasons, the humanness. Still curious as to how these two artists could combine so many different styles of music I ask them about their song writing process. Brian is an easy person for me to work with. Says Nic, He writes music very quickly then I come along and improvise the vocal parts. Most of the recordings are the first or second takes Brian replies, I like to the raw emotion of the performance. I think that a lot of music is over produced and looses the soul and the feeling that music should have. When I write music it flows from me. A lot of the edits are done as I record so there is a hands on soulful feel to the music even though its electronic. So you play live? Nic answers, Yes we have played at the Bermuda College, Docksiders night Club, Ozone Night Club, Booties Comedy Club, and are considered regulars a Chewstick open mike nights at Champions. Thank you and one love I must say that 1undreads groove is infectious and it is hard to not like their music no matter what your taste is. They cover so much ground musically and can appeal to the music intellectual as well as the common person. This is the music of the future.
