Good luck explaining the contemporary pop, hip hop and R&B landscape without Odd Future. Many of its current trends – colourful, jazz inflected production, a focus on collectives and collaborative scenes, free genre experimentation and cross pollination, were all channelled through a crew of LA school kids, skateboarders and their friends at the dawn of the 2010s. Tyler, The Creator, Frank Ocean, Earl Sweatshirt, The Internet, and numerous acts and artists who have orbited the now defunct label of Odd Future represent a dominance of modern US popular music that is tough to truly calculate. We sift through their influence and pick out some of their most important music.

Mr. Carmack

Mr. Carmack has been played on NTS over 20 times, featured on 25 episodes and was first played on 11 April 2013.

"Make music like no one's listening" is the motto of Aaron Carmack. His story is a three-part series, divided into factions of past, present, and future. Every element of the past, as Carmack would explain, has had an effect on who he is today as both a writer/producer and DJ. Being born and raised in San Francisco, attending and dropping out of college in Long Beach, CA, moving to Oahu for three years and living off income from monthly releases on Bandcamp – his music is an expression and perpetual reflection of all of it.

Constantly translating personal experience into his craft, Carmack finds inspiration from a range of sources, from his friends and fellow musicians in production cliques, Team Supreme and Soulection, to his travels and numerous sold out tours of five continents over the past two years, sharing stages with folks like Hudson Mohawke, Just Blaze, Cashmere Cat, and Diplo. These influences, combined with a hunger for discovering the newest, most cutting-edge sounds in the world, are some of the ingredients to the now-Los Angeles-based producer’s distinct creative process.

Like a hinge to the doorway between dance music and hip hop, Carmack’s musical output increasingly occupies a void frontier between the two genres, identified by fans and himself purely as “Carmack”. With a devotion to the studio & a grinding work ethic, the inventive producer aims to release a prolific amount of music in coming months, all while performing as often as possible.
