Tame Impala's Kevin Parker: A Regional Burner
Tame Impala's Kevin Parker attended Blazing Swan, a regional burn in Western Australia, while making his album Deadbeat.
Over the past few years, rave music has influenced mainstream sounds, with pop and rap incorporating elements of jungle, drum 'n' bass, and jersey club.
The techno pivot in Tame Impala's latest album, Deadbeat, isn't a result of following trends, but rather a reflection of Kevin Parker's long-time love for the dance floor as a raver.
"That idea of just endless, hypnotic music that a field full of people can tap into,"
Parker's experience at "doofs," or off-the-grid raves in Australia, inspired the record, which blends his established psych-rock sound with four-on-the-floors.
