Blu DeTiger Drops New Single "Kiss"

Blu DeTiger debuts second single and music video for "Kiss" from her upcoming debut album All I Ever Want Is Everything, out March 29.

“Kiss” is matched with an accompanying music video showcasing Blu playing her signature bass.

“’Kiss" is about seeing someone after a breakup, realizing why you were wrong for each other but wanting to feel that love again for one more night,” says Blu DeTiger. “It’s about living in that moment, maybe kissing that person will make me feel what I did back then. It was important to me to dial in the production for this song so that there only needed to be a few elements for it to feel full. I especially love the bass tone on this song, it’s my favorite from the whole album."

“This album is about really enjoying the high moments in life, but also learning how to talk yourself out of the low moments and become your own best friend,” Blu says. “I want to let people know that you can feel it all and do it all. Wherever you’re at is cool.”

The album also includes “Cut Me Down” featuring Mallrat, which Blu produced alongside GRAMMY-winning producer John Hill and Sam Homaee. The track earned a spot on Rolling Stone’s “Songs You Need to Know” playlist upon its release last fall. Billboard observed, “On ‘Cut Me Down,’ a dizzying pop song built around a groovy and defining bass riff, the two trade verses about no one being able to bring them down. Who would dare try?” “They radiate cool to the furthest degree possible,” said Consequence of Sound. Stereogum noted, “The jittery anthem…is the sonic incarnation of a sugar rush.”

All I Ever Want Is Everything features co-writes from Uffie, Mayer Hawthorne, Chappell Roan, Alexander 23 and Blu’s frequent collaborator, her brother, Rex. She also teamed up with Magdalena Bay.

Blu will support All I Ever Want Is Everything with a North American headline tour where she invites fans old and new to join her on a journey of exploration and self-discovery. The run will kick off on April 25th at The Sinclair in Boston, MA and include shows at NYC’s Irving Plaza (April 27th) and the Troubadour in West Hollywood, CA (May 4th). Tickets are on sale now.

Kernom Elipse Review

Analog modulation guided by a digital brain willing to get weird.

Fun, fluid operation. Capable of vintage-thick textures at heavier gain settings. High headroom for accommodating other effects.

MIDI required to access more than one preset—which you’ll probably long for, given the breadth of voices.

If you love modulation—and lots of it—you can eat up a lot of pedalboard space fast. Modulation effects can be super-idiosyncratic and specialized, which leads to keeping many around, particularly if you favor the analog domain. TheKernom Elipse multi-modulator is pretty big and, at a glance, might not seem the best solution for real estate scarcity. Yet the Elipse is only about 1 1/4" wider than two standard-sized Boss pedals side by side. And by combining an analog signal path with digital control, it makes impressive, efficient use of its size—stuffing fine-sounding harmonic tremolo, phaser, rotary-style, chorus, vibrato, flanger, and Uni-Vibe-style effects into a single hefty enclosure. Many of the effects can also be blended and morphed into one another using a rotary control aptly called “mood.” The Elipse, most certainly, has many of those.

It’s universally known in the guitar community that Brad Paisley isn’t just some guy that strums a guitar and sings country songs. He’s widely respected as one of the best players in the country music scene and takes an unusual approach to achieve the sonic insanity that spills out of his guitar. From Telecasters, G-benders, and cranked Dr. Z amps to instrumental records and wild guitar solos getting mainstream country radio airtime, Paisley has solidified his place in the discussion of all-time greats, and not just in the country world. In this lesson, we’ll dive into one of the cornerstones of Brad’s playing that makes him so unique: open strings.
