His SoundCloud biography boasts a modest description of his sound: “swanky grooves.” Albeit vague, “swanky grooves” is spot on. AudioTreats newest track “Tonic,” is a synth-y keyboard mantra that could appropriately underscore a happy hour in a hotel lobby―ice cube clinks included.
With an ear for instrumentation, AudioTreats became proficient in guitar, piano and clarinet before he graduated to producing electronic music. Like many, a young love for rap and hip-hop ignited a new musical inclination. “The first album I ever bought when I was young was 2Pac’s All Eyes on Me, which kicked off my love for hip-hop,” he says. Nowadays his influences bounce from Minus the Bear to the legendary Radiohead, but he still earmarks his taste to experimental sounds.
