A.Dd+ – Can’t You See

blame it on Shake March 7, 2012

Something new from the Dallas-duo that will end up living on Austin DJ/producer Nick Nack’s upcoming album, State Machine.

“What’s interesting about this song,” notes Slim Gravy, “was that I had written my verse and the hook without even telling Paris the concept, and his verse ended up matching perfectly.” And that concept, according to Paris, is, “the weight of petty issues and people, and how they can shape your perspective on life in a given moment.” The gist of the song, a melancholy track built around Nick Nack’s slowed, guitar-laden beat, is summed up in one succinct bar from Paris’ verse, when he raps, “The success turned me to anti-social socialite.”
