ARTIST SPOTLIGHT YRS ANT November 15th 2024 Describe the sound of your music and why people should listen. i’d describe my sound as a mix between bedroom pop and indie. people should listen because the songs i make are relatable (except for B.B.E.B) How and when did you get into music? i’ve been interested in music since middle school. My friends and i used to freestyle during lunch and i became a soundcloud rapper almost immediately lol. However, i got into indie and bedroom pop during my senior year of highschool. Creative Process? My creative process is spontaneous. I can’t write or record songs unless i’m in the mood too, but a lot of my songs have been written in less than hour. Where do you find inspiration? My life is my inspiration. I didnt have the best life growing up but it was manageable. from time to time i find myself thinking about the mistakes i made in life or how hard i’d try to love someone. that gives me just enough fuel for the songs i make. What song/project should unfamiliar listeners begin with? For new listeners I would recommend “Time” or “From The Start”. Both are good songs and gives perfect amount of sad vibes. Any new projects soon? Anything you'd like to promote I recently released a single called “love me?” but i have a song called “search” coming later this week. What music have you been listening to recently? Recently i’ve been listening to a lot of Summer Salt and Mustard Service. I literally can’t stop listening to these 2 bands. I’ve also been listening to some smaller artists like Chek and Jardin.

ABOUT CLATTERMOUUUTH Clattermouuuth is a platform that emphasizes the art of creating art: the creative process, inspiration and dedication of an artist. I created Clattermouuuth in a time of personal creative drought. I really wasn't doing anything creative at the time and I felt kinda lost. I decided to try something new and start interviewing artists and talking about music on instagram. At the time it felt kinda scary to start Clattermouuuth; like I was at risk of failing. Now I know feel like creating something with passion and intent is anything but failing. - Andrew Kohler

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT MAMA'S FUNK PALACE March 28th 2025 Describe the sound of your music for unfamiliar listeners Groovy, Funky, Upbeat, Feel-good, Soul Rock, R&B, Pop, Subliminal, Alternative, and Experimental Describe your creative process Our creative process is usually presenting a melody we created, and building upon it. After the melody is set in stone, we try to add layers of instruments or vocals. Lyrics usually come naturally with the creation of the song. Your new single + music video , “Queen Kung fu” shows great potential from the group. How was it created? Originally we were trying to emulate the comedic energy from the “Rush Hour Series” we wanted our debut song to be fun, catchy, comical, and universal How’d you first get into making music? We got into making music as a group quite spontaneously. Each of us always individually had a passion for music since we were young. But when we met, we knew we could create something greater as a collective because of what we each bring to the table. Where do you find the inspiration to create music? We find inspiration for creating music in many things. At times, inspiration comes from other artists, past and present. We also find much in our daily lives to take inspiration from. Whether it’s interactions with other people, the sunshine, pains we’ve faced and seek to overcome, and the prospect of being able to share our hearts with the world- and in turn possibly inspire others. Describe how you created your upcoming album, Queens N’ Kingdoms We produced some songs all on bandlab and others in professional studios. Conceptually, we wanted to remind ourselves and empower others that we are royalty by nature being the descendants of The Heavenly King. What music have you been listening to recently? Led Zeppelin, Prince, Paul McCartney & The Wings, StereoLab, Queen, The Sundays, and Steve Lacy!

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT TWELFTH April 18th 2025 Describe your music for unfamiliar listeners Noise pop and shoegaze blended with tints of glitch, rap, and metal Describe your creative process I'll usually be thinking about lyrics or something I could use as a topic in a song and then just flow on whatever beat I choose and just make the song from there. No planning or any complicated steps I just kinda get in the studio and make something, and if I like it enough I'll put the whole thing together or work on it off and on. Your latest album, “I’m not, I’m just” is such a cool and dynamic project. How was that album created? What is your personal favorite track on that album? I'm Not, I'm Just is probably my favorite project I've ever done, I started working on it in May-June of 2024 and was working very hard on it throughout the rest of 2024 and until it was released. I'm honestly not set on an absolute favorite track on the album because I always change my mind or have phases loving a song from my albums- But as of right now it would definitely be zombie, it's my most abrasive, noisy, and experimental song I've ever done and xandrey killed it on the mixing. It was really hard to put it all together when I made it I almost cut it from the album but I'm glad I did finish and put it out and I'm very happy to see the attention it's been getting How’d you first get into making music? I started making music in fifth grade, I was inspired by a lot of popular rap around that time, like Polo G, DaBaby, and Roddy Ricch and I started messing around with Bandlab and eventually started dropping rap songs on Soundcloud under a different name Where do you find the inspiration to create music? My biggest inspirations are definitely my favorite artists and just the music scene as a whole- I really have Quadeca to thank for really introducing me to different genres besides hip-hop after he dropped I Didn't Mean to Haunt You. That album definitely started my love for music as a whole and that's when I started to really get involved with the Album of the Year community, deadAir artists, and other genres that I never thought I would be into. Any new music soon? can't say too much but definitely have been in the mix What music have you been listening to recently? I've been nonstop listening to underground rap, Jane Remover's newest album has been on repeat lately but I also really like che & nettspend. and if you aren't tapped in to Daniel Kashule yet trust me you must get tapped in

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT Patrick Hyacinth January 24th 2025 Describe the sound of your music for unfamiliar listeners Soundscape of the music I’m making is ever changing, depending on my current interest. For what’s out, it’s mostly electronic music with guitar over pretty chords, but I want to explore every avenue in some way. Describe your creative process. I make all kinds of instrumentals every day, then write to them, most of the time nothing really happens, but sometimes it just clicks and the song writes its self. Then it gets more chaotic as I try to define the initial idea and build around the vocals, sometimes I might not know what to do with a certain part of the song for two weeks, then it clicks and I get done with it in 30 minutes. It’s most definitely not a linear process. How’d you first get into making music? I used to make YouTube videos when I was like twelve, I used adobe audition to record audio for them, me and my friend, we discovered the built-in autotune and started to mess with it, somehow that turned into making some silly songs, later I started making beats because I couldn’t find the ones for me, but also because buying them was too expensive for a fifteen year old. Where do you find the inspiration to create music? Images. Either it’s something that I’ve shot or something I found or saved, more often than not it’s more than one photo, then I try to score it. What song / project would you suggest for unfamiliar listeners For now there’s only two songs, so I’d say to check them both out. What’s next for Patrick Hyacinth? What are some goals for 2025? More music, some beautiful visuals, and I really want to produce for other artists. What music have you been listening to recently? I recently discovered the band Prefab Sprout, I think the song “Bonny” is one of the most beautiful songs ever created. But I’ve been listening to Nala Sinephro, Toro Y Moi, Fleetwood Mac, Mount Kimbie and the first Mac Demarco album.

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT THREETHIRTYTWO March 7th 2025 Describe your music for unfamiliar listeners As of what’s released more psychedelic rap a bit experimental. We love rapping and good beats Describe your creative process When making past music we used to hang out at internetsuicidecults garage and just create. Things are busy right now so our process is way different now a bit more personal within everyone. How was the group formed? (maysee) i wanted a group so i was making music with 30chomr. i found INTERNETSUICIDECULT i thought it was the sound i wanted and then hondo blue was added through ISC cause they knew each other Your debut album, “THE SPIDERS IN OUR GARAGE DON’T KNOW THEY ARE WITNESSING HISTORY” is beautifully arranged and shows great potential in the group. How was that album created? it was done in a span of a year and a half almost 2 years. we went through a lot of changes. A lot of heat in the garage , late nights , it was our first project as a group as of making it we just made what came to us. If it turned out good as a demo we just keep working on it. We put so much time in the album experience we are thinkers lol How’d you first get into making music? (maysee)well for me I was writing since I was 7 but what got me into writing was being at church. I remember hearing this song with a guy rapping and it completely blew my mind I studied him until I got the verse down. From there I just kept going Where do you find the inspiration to create music? We all have very different but very personal points of inspiration but at the end of the day we all enjoy the same circles of experimental and abstract hip hop, we also just have a mutual passion for the music we make and see it as an outlet for expressing our selves and sharing our individual experiences so that inspires us a lot as well. Any new music soon? we just released an ep but we are working on 2 albums Right now 2 different sounds it’s more mature and honestly our best work dont know when they will be finished we care a lot about the final product What music have y’all been listening to recently?

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT GERK July 20th 2025 Describe your music for unfamiliar listeners My music is cinematic, emotionally raw, sonically rich, and unapologetically me. Describe your creative process My creative process is extremely spontaneous. When I hear the beat and I already know what I’m going to say? That’s the sweet spot for me Your album, “DIEVAS” is really sick. What went into making it? Do you have a favorite song on it? Dievas was a long creative process as an artist and a mixing engineer. As my third project I felt like it really needed to stand out. I spent about a year making songs and finding the right mix. My favorite song off the album now is red eyes, but originally it was iBEAM How’d you first get into making music? My first introduction to music was playing in the school band starting in 2nd great , but I’ve been around music my entire life my dad is a huge music nerd, and my parents have been taking me to music festivals since before I could remember. Where do you find the inspiration to create music? I try to find inspiration in my everyday life, and past experiences. I’m big on living in the moment, so when inspiration strikes I take advantage. What have you been working on lately? Any new music soon? I just produced an EP for my friend BaeAK, #BaeLovesYou3, and I recently finished up my 4th project coming out at the end of the summer.

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT Will Cherry June 6th 2025 Describe your music for unfamiliar listeners It’s a lot of different things genre wise, but I’d say the core of what I always do is hard drums, pretty chords and honest lyrics. My songs tend to end differently from how I started, so the best one word answer is “unpredictable”. Describe your creative process The ideas come from all over the place, but once I’m in front of a computer, I start cooking with samples or chord ideas. I try to build a basic loop, then record the entire song on it, then mix and produce the song all at once, almost always alone. I try to do different parts of the process at once to make sure it’s all coming from the same creative place, and so every element can feed into each other. In 2024, Somewhere in Ohio, you released “Somewhere in Ohio”. Describe how you made that album. Do you have a favorite song from the album? I made the album over the course of a year and half, it's the second part of a trilogy I’m working on. My EP ANYWHERE was the first part. I really started this album before that EP, and the goal was to always make an album and film that really connect to people personally storytelling wise, with really pretty visuals and sonics. My favorite song is somewhere between “Genesis” and “Fallfree*”. I feel like “Genesis” is the most impressive song I’ve ever made. That was the first time I wrote from a woman’s perspective, it’s truly a storytelling record. How’d you first get into making music? My parents met at a radio station. My dad was a singer and my mom hosted her own show. I’ve been surrounded and a part of music since I was a child, I started writing songs at 11 and making beats at 12. Where do you find the inspiration to create music? I’m always searching for brand new music or older music that missed me so far, to hear something fresh and different to my ear. Going to the movie theater or concerts or even trips and stuff can be intentional moments to search for inspiration, but it also just comes randomly all the time from different things people say, or a feeling you can get from something totally unrelated to art. What have you been working on lately? Any new music soon? I’m doing part three of the trilogy, but I also have more bonus tracks and videos for Somewhere in Ohio…, I’m really enjoying building out that world and showing my creativity in different ways. Doing a short film and making it into festivals was huge for me, I’ll definitely have more (better!) films coming up the pike. Who are some of your favorite artists from Ohio? Tae Miles (check his soundcloud), Bootsy Collins, The Isley Brothers, Roger Troutman, Gerald Levert, Kid Cudi and Anita Baker. Other than music, what else have you been up to? My team and I put on shows throughout Cleveland called Club Ultraviolet, we have a mini-doc on our youtube showing the process. It’s really important to us to create positive platforms to share with others, on the stage and in the crowd. I’m a filmmaker like I mentioned before as well, I direct all of my music videos and stuff for others as well. And I still work a 9-5 so that takes up a ton of my time (unfortunately!) What music have you been listening to lately? Right now, I’ve been listening to SwaVay, Kipp Stone, Horace Gaither, Jimmy Poindexter, Blake Parker and Daniel Hex. With modern music I really like to hear artists that are project-focused because I approach my work the same way. With the OGs it’s been some SOS Band, Jodeci and Gap Band like always. I can’t lie though, what I listen to the most is podcasts and my own music. I'm tryna get deeper into audiobooks.

Like da only hard shi I can find det give Azzy competition is da old shi — like Bone Thugs, Pac, Eazy-E. But it makes sense cus Azzy da newest, newest futuristic even version of da old West Coast — tellin u, stop playin wit det boy Azzy.

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT Mark Saunders May 16th 2025 Describe your music for unfamiliar listeners The sound & texture of my music is EVERYDAY LIFE HUSTLER music. If you're someone applying themselves everyday to get more outta life, while making themselves uncomfortable in order to grow my music will resonate. The messaging is relatable to those pushing through the turmoil. Describe your creative process in the respective aspects of creativity. Whenever my name is attached to something its always highly intentional. I work on many projects at once and slowly nab away at them based on what's inspiring me most at that specific time. I try to cram in as many meanings & entendres into these spaces for sharp artistic execution. I want surface consumers to enjoy my lines yet I also want connoisseurs to have a moment to tap in with a artist they can tell cares about this shit just as much as them..... if not more then them...because of the layering that goes into my work Your album, “demoGRAPHIC II” is truly so impressive. How was that album created? What is your personal favorite track on that album? demoGRAPHIC II was initially a project I was going to release in 2019 then I scrapped the idea because I HATE SEQUELS I personally think they're corny & low hanging fruit for artist. I prefer artist to make new experiences opposed to forcefully creating a lightning in the bottle moment. Fast forward to 2021 I began working on a project and by mid 2024 I found myself in the exact circumstances + mindset that I was in when when I released the first 'demoGRAPHIC' back in 2018. It felt genuinely to my storyline as a artist to come out with 'dG2' A personal favorite, for me is “Silence of The Lambs”. Tell me the story behind that song. I've been rapping for 15 years, they say you aren't a master of your craft until you’ve put in 10,000 hours. Well, I've exceeded over 30k. Within my 15 years I'd say I'm on my 3rd life as a rapper. And I've experienced first hand people loving every little thing about you then later hating you for it. Silence of the lambs took me two full years to write and as I went through defeat that song became my direct journal. How’d you first get into making music? outta pure curiosity. I remember being a freshman in highschool listening to Lil Wayne 'the drought 3' on the bus on my way to school and instead of getting off at my stop I cut school writing raps over Wayne's vocals hahaa. Good times! Where do you find the inspiration to create music? First its my natural love for hip hop and mastering the technical mechanics to become one of the greatest emcee's ever. Secondly I've watched my entire family struggle. I view my talent as a vital tool to change the course of my bloodline. It sounds like alot to burden but as long as I sacrifice it'll be worth it. The work + work ethic will speak for itself Any new music soon? Anything you’d like to promote? Yeah, sure. This is the first time I'd be publicly announcing this. Im happy to be doing it on your platform. I grew up as a real student of rap music and being from New York I looked at PRO ERA as people similar in age who were dominating. In mid-June I'll be releasing 'DON'T TRIP' featuring Nyck Caution. There's a music video in the works as well. This has been a long time coming! Where do you find the inspiration to create music?

Westside Gunn, Ray Vaughn's New Album, Carti, Mixtape Lil' Wayne & alotta classic soulful R&B. There isn't much music in rap that's moved me. Other than music, what else have you been up to? I've been trying to get back on my feet financially. I fell on hard times in October '2024, I was fired from my job and in May 2025 I finally got a employment offer (part-time). Other than that my doctor gave me the unfortnate news, im prediabetic. As I was unemployed I was severely depressed eating comfort foods to feel better so the news makes sense. Since then I'm prioritizing my mental & physical health by working out & completely changing my diet.

resonance For this film I messaged and asked all my pals that were passionate about music to send in a voice memo talking a little bit about how music has impacted them. I edited the voice memos together and this is what was made! MISSED TRAIN This film was based on a true story that happened to my friend William Groninger (the main actor in this story). When he told me about his experience after missing the last train home in Grand Central, I knew I had to adapt it into a film. I am very proud of the sound design in this one. meet me here This music video was shot during two nights in the freezing cold oh my goodness it was awful. The music is awesome so it wasn't hard to be inspired. This was my first music video and I truly look forward to shooting more! KISS This film was shot in the freezing cold in december so thank you thank you thank you to William Groninger and Madisen Lora. This film taught me how careful you have to be when editing in order to preserve comedic timing. A Christmas Miracle A Masterpiece. La Haine Scene Recreation This was one of my first video projects ever. I made it really difficult for myself by shooting in a very reverberant bathroom so sound was pretty difficult.
