LISTEN: Karaboudjan Blends Ethereal & Dream Pop On Spacious Rocker “Scatter”

Karaboudjan, the solo project of multi-instrumentalist Billy Kim, has released a genre-melding single “Scatter”. Billy, who has toured with Tycho since 2016, blends elements of Radiohead, Animal Collective, and the Beatles into a dreamy psych-rocker filled with captivatingly syncopated drums and ethereal vocals. Be on the lookout for a new EP due out later this year. 

“Compared to the majority of the music I wrote during the start of the pandemic, ‘Scatter’ seemed to write itself from the moment I wrote the intro synth line and up until the lyrics were written. I’ve challenged myself to record drums by performing them on a midi drum kit instead of finger drumming them or writing them in manually. Even though drums are a tertiary instrument for me, I’m hoping to continue to lean in this creative direction more often than not,” says the artist.
