Summary
In this episode, STVSH breaks down his approach to bass music production, sound design, and how his background in film and Foley work has shaped his unique sonic identity. We dive into Ableton workflows, creating “mud pies,” resampling techniques, and why simplifying your process can actually level up your music. Nathan Lienau, aka STVSH, is a rising bass music producer and DJ from Atlanta, Georgia. Known for blending raw hip-hop influences with gritty, urban textures, his sound is deeply inspired by the “sonic architecture” of his city. With a background in sound design for film and visual arts like graffiti and illustration, STVSH brings a multi-disciplinary approach to music. His career highlights include performing at Red Rocks Amphitheater, playing Lost Lands, collaborating with Mersiv, releasing on UKF, and completing his first headline tour.
