DescriptionMyd, the delightfully irreverent French DJ, musician and producer Myd will release his anticipated debut album ‘Born A Loser’ The album comprises 14 tracks, including previous single ‘Moving Men’ featuring Mac DeMarco and new single - also called ‘Born A Loser’. But here, Myd has crafted an album completely alone - unabashedly showcasing his eccentric flair. ‘Born A Loser’ is his coming-of-age record and a soundtrack to life's strange delights: a drunken round of jazzercise, a lazy float in the kiddie pool, your weird uncle gyrating under disco lights. Born A Loser takes in disparate influences and sources of inspiration - from its featured artists to the records it samples. The title track and single sees Myd flip Derrick Harriott’s vocals from the classic 1967 reggae record ‘The Loser’, creating a hypnotic loop around the refrain “I was born a loser” and ‘Now That We Found Love’ samples The O-Jays’ iconic 1973 single of the same name. Uruguay-born guitarist Juan Wuaters adds an intimate moment on ‘Forbidden’, his fingerpicked melodies crackling and swirling against the beat, as if the listener was sat huddled around a vintage radio. Acclaimed British vocalist Bakar's feature on ‘Got It’ flows humid and slow over disco and bird calls. At times, ‘Born A Loser’ is fun and flirty, other times thoughtful, dreamy and warm with intergalactic fuzz. It's an intimate record dripping with synth-heavy shine, and in its weathered corners and rich textures, lies the autobiography of Myd – at least in this moment. |
