This week @ KILLSWITCH: Dead Seal & Clint Stewart (Auralism)!
About Dead Seal:
One step away from musical ascension. Tearing the bass off your pants in a San Fransicco local band called LAND SHARK, and pressing EP licks on Auralism, Smash Hit, and Coma; this guy has the versatility of Ernest P. Waral movies (Know what I mean Vern?). An underground DJ defining the under belly of sex vs. cosmic orgasm. Working straight out of his house in the tranvestite, ghetto, trenches of the tenderloin in a studio that is attatched to his bed. A character amongst muppets and a gentlmen with the dolphins, this guy has more charisma than a buhdist monk. Which is a-lot of charisma. If this rennaisance man is doing anything more than picking his underwear from his ass you should find out what he's up to, cause life of this rock star status should be followed and pursued. And possibly touched. Anything with a DEAD SEAL stamp on it is 100% all origanal and from the heart and soul of Derrick Scotten Boyd. So sit back and get ready for nonstop downloads of rock, pop, and tech whatever from the next best thing in home and club entertainment.
About Clint Stewart:
In a sea of heads, Clint Stewart can’t contain his enthusiasm. “It’s an amazing time for dance music,” says the Auralism assistant label manager. “There’s so much good music and an endless list of people making it. It’s inspiring.” The Florida-born DJ / producer / promoter is true to his word, commanding crowds with ease and producing sexy, gauzy cuts that exhort everyone to dance.
Growing up in a home surrounded by the sounds of classical music to classic rock and early blues, he began training in classical piano and guitar. Over time Stewart’s adolescent obsession with punk’s passion and aggression (“I hated dance music”) led to a college-age awakening to techno’s dark, relentless groove. A stint on UNF College Radio Station gave him the opportunity to start Nocturnal Underground radio show where he met Marc Smith. After college he moved to Miami and began eventually joining forces with Auralism co-founders Marc Smith and Jason Short and playing at their residency at Jazid. Within the year, Stewart moved to Hawaii for a brief stint to “get away”, but was soon living in San Francisco after a gig in which he never stepped foot on his return flight.
Since joining the Auralism camp, Stewart has been “going 100 miles an hour, all day, every day,” playing high-profile DJ gigs with top artists among as well as a particularly sizzling set at SF’s annual LoveFest. In addition pounding the pavement for Auralism, Stewart has a growing list of productions out there, including a pair of ecstatic remixes for the label’s inaugural Aural Therapy 1.1 compilation. That’s a lot of work for a short time in a new town, but master multi-tasker Stewart’s just getting started.
