On this bonus episode of ISOS: Ryan Gaur conducts an interactive interview with producer Chris Keys. This podcast works in tandem with a piece Ryan wrote about the interview so be sure to check out the accompanying article here.
Planting your feet into the ground and trusting your artistic vision is a difficult position to maintain in a landscape designed to sweep musicians into the current of contemporary waves. However, Los Angeles-based producer Chris Keys could not be swayed. Having started his career as a jazz-pianist before breaking through to the underground rap scene, Keys’ shifting sounds remained forever faithful to his maturing ear.
Ryan was given the pleasure of sitting down with Chris to discuss that very maturity, to reflect on his career, his influences and to dissect the details of his latest project, the Quelle Chris-assisted Innocent Country 2.
