Fast rising newcomer Unusual Demont makes his exciting first step into 2022 today with the reveal of playful new offering, ‘Maybe Not’. A Wisconsin born, LA based artist who has racked up millions of streams on his independently released tracks and gained support from Zane Lowe, Pigeons & Planes, CLASH, Wonderland, BBC Radio 1 and more, Unusual Demont has been quickly building a stellar reputation. Fresh from touring Europe in support of Avant Garden label mates Emotional Oranges and set to hit the road with Ravyn Lenae, Demont looks set to continue his remarkable rise this year. Blessed with a Grandpa who was a key part of Curtis Mayfield’s set up, Demont creates a hybrid sound which touches on indie and R&B in equal measure. Speaking on ‘Maybe Not’, Demont states:
Maybe Not’ is actually a song that I’ve had for a while but it didn’t feel like the right time to release it until now. I made it around 2020 with the same idea I had creating HUES. – which is simply – songs that make you feel good. However, this one always stood apart from the rest of that project to me. Not only instrumentally (provided by the Stoic beats), but it’s energy as well. From the booming 808s, to the light almost-music-box sound that plays the main chords, it was, for lack of better words, “too fun” to fit in with the rest. That said, timing is everything, especially with change, and ‘Maybe Not’ is the perfect preparation/transition into the new world I’m inviting you into with my next releases. A world that feels like your favorite summer memory all the time. I hope you enjoy this invitation.
