This week on The Seed Cast we sat down with long time homie, Brendan Landis. Currently based in Queens, New York, Brendan has collaborated on many musical noise projects but primarily focuses his efforts on solo endeavors Hey Exit and Anura. For Brendan, these projects function as vessels for explorative experimentation, allowing him to define his music on his own terms. In this episode we discussed Brendan’s unique approach to using found objects as instruments, how genre categorization is purely a capitalist mechanism, and the importance of “letting your freak flag fly.” You can check out his most recent releases at heyexit.bandcamp.com and stay up to date on his happenings at https://heyexit.com/
Brendan’s artist picks: Andrew Weathers and Gretchen Korsmo of Full Spectrum Records, Josh Tabia (Cop Funeral) and David Drucker (Painted Faces) of Already Dead Tapes, and Eliza Swan of The Golden Dome
