Mashing up the group\u2019s signature shoegaze pop-rock aesthetic with new Britpop, hip-hop, and DnB influences, the band\u2019s main creator Susil Sharma has delivered a succinct project that evokes sunshiney days and feverish, sleepless summer nights. <br><br>Throughout its short, 21-minute runtime, we hear a new chapter of taste and influence from Sharma, who seems to have refined his extensive musical career to date into something much more distilled and polished. PAN M 360 sat down with Sharma to discuss the EP, its creation, its influence, and how Hunter Biden fits into it all.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360: Another summer, and now another Karma Glider EP. How\u2019s the reception felt since the release and the launch party at Quai des Brumes?<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Susil Sharma: <\/strong>So far, it&#8217;s been really good, especially playing it live. The response is really nice. I think it&#8217;s maybe changed a little bit since recording it. The kind of full-band live energy.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360: What was the initial inspiration behind the AI soundbites about your band on \u201cBack\u201d?<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SS: <\/strong>It started as an instrumental track\u2014a more interlude-type thing. And then I was just fooling around at one point and looking for samples. And I remember that my friend had told me about some super sketchy AI voice-generating sort of site. It&#8217;s a bit funny to me, because, to me, it&#8217;s really obvious that it&#8217;s not real. But then some people were like, \u201cHow&#8217;d you get Joe Rogan on here?\u201d There&#8217;s a clear point where, as soon as he says, \u201cKarma Glider\u201d\u2019, it doesn&#8217;t sound like his voice very much to me. I found it kind of funny. Obviously, Joe Rogan&#8217;s not talking about me or this whole mythology of my years-long career. I just stole his Axl Rose commentary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360: Do you see yourself using AI more in the future? Or was it more about the novelty this time?<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SS: <\/strong>I think there could be a potential use for it. It&#8217;s obviously pretty beyond the pale in some ways, in the sense of what ethical dilemmas there are to it. There&#8217;s also ethical dilemmas to sampling. I was looking at a more generative website where you can input like, \u201cI want a Philadelphia soul sample with these instruments that sounds like it&#8217;s from this era.\u201d It\u2019s just a free website, and it\u2019s starting get pretty good. Now, instead of having to crate dig to find a drumbeat, you can just find something [with AI].&nbsp; <br><br>Who that belongs to, I guess, is a weird thing to think about. It&#8217;s one thing in the realm of like, DIY, or Lo-Fi-ish music. On the level of major pop stars, it\u2019s probably a different kind of vibe, but I&#8217;m just kind of into it. Like the pirate in me is just like, \u201cSick.\u201d I was already just stealing stuff off YouTube.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360: You mentioned in another interview that you\u2019d also been working on an LP when you diverted your focus to this project. Is the LP still something you\u2019re pursuing?<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SS: <\/strong>Definitely. I&#8217;m actually kind of just getting back into the flow of that. I\u2019m hoping to, ideally, chase that for the end of the year. But I think it was really good in terms of workflow, because I was very myopic about finishing this really big project. And it almost became like a task, starting to feel like I needed to tick boxes off. And then this EP was kind of created with the mentality of pressing pause on that and to just be free\u2014just create whatever, really quickly.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The songs don&#8217;t really have much structure. They&#8217;re more open. It&#8217;s really fun, and the collaboration is really loose. And I think now that I&#8217;m coming back to the LP, I\u2019ve learned a lot in the process of just reconnecting with aimless creativity. In my life, I&#8217;m philosophically trying to tap into that. Essentially just trusting myself, collaborators, the universe, whatever. Being a bit less rigid about having to churn whatever result out.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360: <em>Ocean Honey Violence <\/em>feels a lot more laid-back than much of <em>Future Fiction<\/em>. Can you point to anything in particular that brought this EP\u2019s different energy?<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SS: <\/strong>I got a little bit more hands-on. I think most of the guitars were recorded at home, and then fed through a TASCAM. I mixed it later with my friends Adrian [Popovich] and Joseph [Donovan] who produced the record. But in the past, guitars were too sacred, almost. Like, it had to be the perfect tone. I think maybe just doing things on my own, living with imperfections, and in fact, embracing that, informed the sound.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Karma-Glider-Press-Photo-2-\u00a9-Yang-Shi-2024-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-122933\" srcset=\"https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Karma-Glider-Press-Photo-2-\u00a9-Yang-Shi-2024-scaled.jpg 600w, https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Karma-Glider-Press-Photo-2-\u00a9-Yang-Shi-2024-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Karma-Glider-Press-Photo-2-\u00a9-Yang-Shi-2024-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Karma-Glider-Press-Photo-2-\u00a9-Yang-Shi-2024-1536x2048.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><br><strong>PAN M 360: Have you considered yourself something of a perfectionist in the past?<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SS: <\/strong>I think so. And it&#8217;s interesting because I\u2019ve really been analyzing that. What that idea of perfection is, and where does that come from? And I realized that it\u2019s just based on something someone else did. And they just made it up. So instead of rigidly trying to recreate The Strokes\u2019 guitar tone or something, just be free and make something up yourself.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;ve been making music for a little while, and I noticed sometimes in myself that if there&#8217;s an expectation and a goal, like \u201cI have to make this EP because it has to break my band, and I have to get on some blog, and my YouTube video has to get whatever,\u201d it kind of takes the fun and the magic out of making art. I&#8217;ve seen it in myself when I deprive myself of the joy and the privilege of really making art. So maybe I&#8217;ve been guilty of doing that a bit in the past, but this time around, I just let myself have fun.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360: I heard that you initially planned this to be a 3-song EP with each track touching on one of the title\u2019s words. What was the initial inspiration to touch on the words ocean, honey, and violence?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SS: <\/strong>They kind of just appeared. I think I was freeform writing, and those words kind of seemed to group themselves together. It kind of struck me later that they&#8217;re kind of things that I have difficult relationships with. I\u2019m kind of scared of open water in the ocean. I write about that a lot. And sugar\u2014I&#8217;m a recovering addict, and I\u2019ve definitely sometimes noticed that I eat ice cream the way I used to drink alcohol, like trading addictions. Violence, I\u2019m scared of. And it\u2019s almost a part of the world we live in, in these weird underbellies.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360: You\u2019ve got an unlikely blend of influences working on this album, especially with the nods to hip-hop. Who are some rappers and producers you\u2019re inspired by?<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SS: <\/strong>Definitely a lot of Golden Era, early 90s boom bap: The Bomb Squad, Public Enemy. To me, those are kind of the coolest-sounding records of all times, so I&#8217;ve always been influenced by those. There&#8217;s actually a lot of DnB and jungle influence, especially on the last song. Maybe Timbaland a little bit? I\u2019m also into Tyler, The Creator and there&#8217;s this dude, Mike, from New York who I\u2019ve been into recently\u2014he\u2019s so good. So a lot of that kind of like minimalist, modern, alternate hip hop is, honestly, kind of the most interesting sounding music being made right now.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360: Have you always been a hip-hop head? Or was that an interest you developed separately from band music?<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SS: <\/strong>I dip in and out. I do think all that older stuff, Rick-Rubin-produced shit is pretty synchronous with punk music. I think I maybe dipped out a little bit around the turn of the millennium when things seemed to get hyper-commercial. And that&#8217;s when I was a teenager, so 50 Cent records were just not really my bag. But lately, I\u2019ve been finding a lot of stuff that\u2019s really good.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360: Reading about your work, I\u2019ve noticed a lot of comparisons, whether that\u2019s people comparing your sound to other bands or simply comparing Karma Glider to Heat. What are your thoughts when you get a comparison like that?<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SS: <\/strong>I&#8217;m into it. I&#8217;m under no pretension that I&#8217;ve created some new sound. I\u2019m pretty blatantly taking elements from other stuff. It is kind of funny sometimes when people compare Karma Glider with Heat, because they\u2019re two different bands with different people, and it\u2019s essentially just me singing and playing guitar as the common thread. With all the other comparisons, I&#8217;m super flattered. I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ve received any negative comparisons. Usually it&#8217;s like, Oasis, The Jesus and Mary Chain, we got The Killers recently. With a lot of the songs, it\u2019s like, \u201cThis is the Rolling Stones-inspired song, this is the Velvet Underground track.\u201d I\u2019ve been listening to a lot of Spacemen 3 recently, and I was looking at some old reviews. People were like, kind of almost dissing them, being like, \u201cThis is just Can and The Stooges.\u201d I was like, \u201cI love Can and The Stooges.\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360: To you, what\u2019s the line between an influence and a rip-off?<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SS: <\/strong>I was watching a video taking apart Led Zeppelin songs. And here&#8217;s a line they totally stole from a different band, like 100% the same. So, I guess they just took that one. But to me, they still rule. So I don\u2019t know. Honestly, personally, I don&#8217;t think it makes me feel like it&#8217;s less authentic.&nbsp;Sometimes it&#8217;s interesting to think about the \u201860s garage rock bands. There would be regional acts like Paul Revere &amp; the Raiders, and The King&#8217;s Men, and all these local garage bands that would all have different versions of \u201cLouie, Louie\u201d, and they&#8217;d all chart locally because there wasn&#8217;t a central thing. So they&#8217;re all kind of doing the same songs in the same style with just subtle nuance, which is almost more interesting than saying \u201cOnly X band can sound this way.\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/RIDE-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-122935\" srcset=\"https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/RIDE-5.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/RIDE-5-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/panm360.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/RIDE-5-1536x1025.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Karma Glider live by Stephan Boissonneault <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><br><strong>PAN M 360: Does it ever feel like you have something more to prove considering the success of your previous band, Heat? Or are you just saying fuck it and moving forward?<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SS: <\/strong>It does, for sure. I think it&#8217;s a very human thought, in any aspect, to compare yourself to other people or where you were at at one point in your life, or where you think you&#8217;re supposed to be at. And it&#8217;s up to you, when it gets trapped up and you ask, \u201cHow come I&#8217;m not in this magazine, or making a living off this?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Those things become intertwined with my view. Am I a valid artist or musician? Or even a person? Am I productive? That\u2019s engrained capitalism, I guess. Ultimately, the goal is like, could I just go off on an island with a guitar and make music, knowing no one would ever listen to it, and have fun with it? That\u2019s the point of this at the end of the day. <br>Heat broke up in 2017. And by the time I started putting up music again, Spotify had become so much more important. Now there&#8217;s just so many different metrics of social media, creating content, and being viral. And I don&#8217;t really care. It&#8217;s cool. It&#8217;s a tool, I guess, but that&#8217;s not really why I do this.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">If I&#8217;m not careful, I can start to feel inadequate. Like, how come this song I posted gets, like, zero likes, but then I&#8217;ll post some thirst trap and get validation? Should I start making sexier music? I don&#8217;t know, it&#8217;s just easy to lose yourself in that, versus playing a show and just talking with people. It&#8217;s just a much more direct, real connection.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360: How does collaboration with other members of the band fit into your songwriting method?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><br><strong>SS: <\/strong>It&#8217;s been a lot of time working out the live show. My bassist [Jean-Philippe Bourgeois] and drummer [Jean-Philippe Godbout] were on the first EP. And then on this one it\u2019s just me, and the drummer, and my friend, Matt [Perri], who&#8217;s not in the band, and sang backups.&nbsp;I collaborated pretty closely with the drummer on a lot of these tunes, because I think they&#8217;re more dancey, so focusing on the groove rather than changes is something that we worked on a lot. I feel like I learned a lot from making the EP, collaborating with someone that way.&nbsp;Once we started learning the songs for the live show and playing. It was like, \u201cOh, this actually sounds super sick. I should have recorded with this band.\u201d So I\u2019m looking forward, especially with this LP that I&#8217;m working on now, to get the guys on the record more. And it&#8217;s also just more fun to collaborate.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360: You\u2019ve mentioned the track \u201cHunter\u201d being inspired by both your cat\u2019s predatory instincts and also the perspective of Hunter Biden. This went way under the radar in the interview I heard, so I just have to know more about the inspiration behind it.<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SS: <\/strong>I had that riff lying around for a long time, and it\u2019s more the type of song where it&#8217;s pretending to be someone. I just asked, \u201cWhat is this character, who&#8217;s it personifying?\u201d At that time I, like many people, was just obsessed with American politics. So I was reading a lot, and the Hunter Biden story is crazy. And then moreso looking at it from a sympathetic angle\u2014this sacrificial lamb. A crack addict son to a career politician who was thrust into the spotlight.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><br>I read an interview with him where he said the fate of democracy rested on him staying sober. I was like, damn. That&#8217;s a crazy thing to think about. What would it be like to be there? Ultimately, I\u2019m pretty sympathetic\u2014almost like he&#8217;s trapped in this way of being.&nbsp;I&#8217;m nine years sober at this point. But I\u2019ve been in positions where I felt powerless to addiction. If you want to call that a disease, or whatever, there are different viewpoints on it. But I can relate to this person on that level. I honestly feel deep empathy for someone who would have to go through that on that scale.&nbsp;I\u2019ve gone through moments where I was giving in, and like, \u201cFuck it, let&#8217;s go, let\u2019s call the crack dealer, let&#8217;s get the rocks out, or whatever.\u201d So I bet when Hunter Biden does that, it\u2019s pretty fucking epic.I had also adopted a cat around that time, and I was just watching him hunt for bugs and appreciating how we\u2019re all kind of set up to play out these roles in a lot of ways.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PAN M 360: There are a lot of lyrics on this album that relate to substance use, sex, and falling apart. The tail end of the rockstar lifecycle. What\u2019s changed between now and when you were going through some of these things?<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SS: <\/strong>The way I think about a lot of that stuff now, and often why I&#8217;m drawn to that imagery, is because it still represents the shadow self that\u2019s seeking some sort of expression. There are darker parts to all of us. And for some people, that goes to a needle, or a bottle, or whatever.&nbsp;It manifests in different ways for different people. And now that I&#8217;ve gotten clean from substance, it&#8217;s still there. It&#8217;s still kind of seeking some sort of home. \u201cSugarcane\u201d is kind of about that\u2014about different ways to numb it out. I think our society is so full of that: Rewarding not being present; avoidance. And that\u2019s part of being a human being.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">So I&#8217;m kind of obsessed with it, because that&#8217;s still there inside of us\u2014 that desire to escape. I&#8217;m constantly fantasizing about buying a ticket somewhere and fucking off from all my responsibilities. But how do I acknowledge that stuff and live with it, but also be planted, and mindful, and enjoy the shit that I love? And the shit that I love just happens to be rock and roll.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Press Photos by Yang Shi<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One year after Montreal rock outfit Karma Glider\u2019s debut EP, comes their anticipated followup, Ocean Honey Violence.
