Interview: Charlottesville, VA Duo EquallyOpposite Discuss Their New Single "FEELGOODSONG"
/
“The project [2 Little 2 Know Fame] is one of proudest accomplishments so far. It represents our growth in our sound. The title of the project itself represents repetitive failure with hope of accomplishing. A lot of people feel small when it comes to looking at the stars, and some, feel small in general because of other reasons. ”
How did you two initially connect and decide to form this musical duo?
Gordo: Zach basically stalked me for a week in college trying to be a part of my skits he saw on YouTube.
Then we both realized each other rapped and formed this entity that is EquallyOpposite.
Salute to you guys on the release of your single “FEELGOODSONG”; tell us who produced it and what your creative process was for its development.
It was produced by one of our producers, Noxid. Our last project called “Siinergii” had a lot more dark energy, and at the time we wrote it, we figured we oughta do something a little more positive.
The song is featured on your latest release “2 Little 2 Know Fame”; what are you most proud of with this project and what does the title represent?
The project is one of proudest accomplishments so far. It represents our growth in our sound. The title of the project itself represents repetitive failure with hope of accomplishing. A lot of people feel small when it comes to looking at the stars, and some, feel small in general because of other reasons.
A major goal we hope to accomplish is becoming the little people for the people who want to be big, AKA Our EOpiens.
How would you describe the music scene in Charlottesville, VA? Are locals generally supportive of homegrown talent and are there a lot of venues to perform?
There are some dope venues to perform at, but the music scene consists more of Indie, rock and alternative. There is Hip Hop, but it could be better because the local support isn't that strong. We normally travel and play out of town.
Tell us about the typical EquallyOpposite live show and what you enjoy most about performing for an audience. Also, do you have a favorite song to perform live?
A typical show is like hot chocolate and marshmallows when you come in from the snow, just soothing. High energy, but yet, chill like Naruto and Sasuke, Goku, Vegeta, CatDog, Gumball and Darwin, Mordecai and Rigby ...you know.... like that.
Our favorite songs to perform would be “Yabba Dabba” and “Amen”.
