Bands in the studio interview: Elliot Moss + live at Rough Trade on May 15

For some songwriters, writing good songs is simply not satisfying enough – and besides, that’s not how their creative process works. These musicians feels compelled to wrap those songs in complex arrangements and original sounds, and sometimes those are actually the starting point of what then becomes a song, in a beautifully bizarre reversed music production process. In their tracks, sound design has as much importance as lyrics, chords and structure. 21 years old Elliot Moss belongs to this category, so we thought he might have something interesting to say about his creative process and the gear he loves – read the interview on our sister blog Delicious Audio. Elliot Moss will perform live at Rough Trade on May 15.
