Part two of the Elroy interview includes Elroy absolutely gushing about Owl City, future bass roots, a guest appearance, favorite plugins, long lost ambient albums, and if we would rather be in the NBA.
This one's a chaotic one, I hope you enjoy.

Previous Episode

Elroy [1/4]: Dream Yoga, origin story p1, and mastering isn't real

In this, the first episode of Thank You For Everything we talk to to Elroy. One of my favorite people and conveniently favorite musicians.
Starting his career with posting a flurry of singles on Soundcloud, Elroy came onto the scene with laid-back yet emotional vocals delivering hypnotising, introspective lyrics over massive 808s and heavy trap drum patterns using a collection of sounds picked from shows, video games, and music that surrounded him.
I and many others had never heard anything like Elroy’s music, especially executed in such a meticulous and precise manner. Over the next few years Elroy would continue building an extremely dedicated fan base releasing music that progressively became somehow even more refined, coupling it with beautiful visuals on youtube, and a general air of captivating mystery in his online presence.
In the first part of what will probably be like a 5 part series, we talk Elroy's process making Dream Yoga, the origins of how he got into music, and why mastering isn't real [it is].
I hope you enjoy.
