In this episode, I catch up with Cameron Devereaux, known more widely by his stage name WAVHART, connecting with me all the way from Los Angeles. One of the most renowned musical minds coming from the gold mine of the underground Shoreline scene, WAVHART serves as a DJ, producer, remixer, singer, and songwriter, and is currently signed to the bass house collective Play Me, through which he's dropped five commercial releases. He walks us through everything from his start in music, his draw to the electronic genre, and how the COVID-19 pandemic triggered him to drop out of community college and chase his dreams.
00:00 – Intro
00:50 – WAVHART's origins in music, coming from a family of artists and being exposed to it from the moment he was born
03:10 – WAVHART's favorite and most influential artists, and the experience of going to his first ever rave briefly before the 2020 lockdowns
06:50 - His favorite songs to listen to and remix
08:40 - His tips for beginning producers
11:35 - Wavhart’s family dynamic, what growing up in a musical family is like, and how his cousin Royce David helped him flourish as a producer
16:25 - What Wavhart appreciates about the PNW, and how it compares to the LA life
21:45 - What he likes about the electronic dance community, and why he feels “EDM” is a lackluster term
28:20 - Timeline and story behind dropping out of SCC and moving to LA
34:00 - Wavhart’s day job at Guitar Center, bumping into Mac Dimarco and Getter, among others
39:00 - Wavhart’s crazy story of how Play Me discovered him, his new release through the label, and the inspiration behind the release
