John is joined by American singer and songwriter d4vd, to talk about how he wrote and recorded his debut album ‘Withered’.
David Burke, aka d4vd, broke into music after beginning to produce tracks of his own to accompany Fortnite videos. Having taught himself how to make music on BandLab and uploading tracks online, he first saw success with the single ‘Romantic Homicide’, becoming a viral hit. He has since released multiple singles and two EPs ‘Petals to Thorns’, which charted on the Billboard 200, and ‘The Lost Petals’.
In this episode, John and David dig into the creative process behind his debut album ‘Withered’ and chart David's journey from YouTuber to recording artist. They discuss the details of producing with BandLab on his phone, creating his own vocal chain presets from scratch, and the themes of vulnerability and emotion behind this new record.
Tracks discussed: Romantic Homicide, Crashing, You Left Me First
