“I don’t want to pick up any piece of music that I make and say to yourself that I sound exactly the same from beginning to end.”
– Saint Pierre
The artist’s foray into music is driven by a genuine love for the entire creative process, even the challenging aspects. “When it comes to music, I have really fallen in love with the entire process (even the most frustrating parts). It gives me the space to create something new every time I’m in the booth,” Saint Pierre shared with Remixd Magazine. Inspired by artists who continually push boundaries and explore different sounds, he aims to cultivate the same versatility in his own music.
Saint Pierre stepped outside of his comfort zone with ‘Only The Surface’
‘Only The Surface’ is a testament to Saint Pierre’s willingness to step outside his comfort zone. The EP’s three tracks challenged him as an artist, allowing him to experiment with a sound he had always wanted to explore. Taking a bold “F*** it” approach, he navigated through the recording sessions. Earning nods from collaborators who initially found the new direction intriguing. “I feel like I was looked at weird at first during the recording session, but everyone caught the vibe by the end of everything,” he said.
Furthermore, in discussing what he wants listeners to take away from his music, Saint Pierre emphasizes his commitment to avoiding one-dimensionality. “I just want people to understand that I try my best to NOT be one dimensional and I want to explore as many sounds as possible,” he continued. When asked about his favorite song of 2023, Saint Pierre proudly points to “2DC.” He sees boundless possibilities in how the song can resonate with listeners and impact their lives.
Moreover, his eclectic taste in music is reflected in his everyday playlist. Ranging from Drake and Larry June to the electronic vibes of Dabeull’s “Intimate Funk” album.
