Other themes include breaking through gatekeeping, balancing ego and humility, evolving musical taste, and creating a community that stays connected to the art and the fans.

Who are SIDEPIECE: While Dylan Ragland and Ricky Mears meant to start a side project, they weren’t totally expecting to create SIDEPIECE, the GRAMMY-nominated house duo that’s clocked more than 362 million global streams since its inception. The two producers – Ragland makes music as fan favorite Party Favor and Mears produces as dancefloor igniter NITTI – first linked via DM in 2019 to share track ideas. Sensing their musical chemistry, they jumped on Facetime. By the end of the call, they’d registered the @youasidepiece social handles and their own figurative side piece had been born.

Podcast Overview: In this conversation, Bob Moses joins Will Clarke to discuss their evolution from the Brooklyn club scene to performing live at Coachella. They share how they blended electronic and band worlds, transitioned from DJ sets to full live shows, and built a loyal fanbase in both spaces. The duo also reflects on touring, creating albums in a singles era, and the inspiration behind their new project BLINK!

Who are Bob Moses: Bob Moses makes music built for both dark clubs and wide open skies. “It feels like just yesterday we were in warehouses DJing raves,” says Howie. Over the years, they have amassed countless hits and accolades, but the yearning for more never quite goes away. “We’ve gone to the Grammys and sold out Red Rocks, but at the same time, I still haven't achieved what I wanted to. Is that even possible?” Blink is an album shaped by the bittersweet passing of time. Its ten songs serve as snapshots, capturing the life moments that inspire and vanish before they’re truly understood. Written between Los Angeles and New York, it reflects both distance and connection as Howie and Vallance continue to evolve. From Brooklyn’s underground to global stages, Bob Moses continues to find new ways to make dance music feel human.

Podcast Overview: In this engaging conversation, Will Clarke and Dreya V explore the challenges and triumphs of being an artist in the music industry. They discuss the impact of rebranding, the importance of personal identity, and the pressures of social media. Dreya shares her journey from being a weed grower to a successful DJ, the struggles of writer's block, and the significance of saying no to opportunities that don't align with her vision. The duo also delves into the gender dynamics within the music scene and the evolving nature of sound and style in today's industry.

But DREYA V is the refined vision - a full-spectrum artist who doesn’t just belong in the booth, she owns it. Tracks like her debut on Aeterna, Light The Fire, showed her command of contrast - tough drums and tender toplines. Now, Up Front hammers it home: DREYA V isn’t blending in. She’s cutting through.
