Hadrien Feraud Brings Fire to WHOEVAZNTAWN’s “Tell ya What”
WHOEVAZNTAWN just dropped a new track and video called “Tell ya What.” It’s chaotic, heavy, and hard to pin down, which is exactly what makes it so much fun.
Holding it all together is Hadrien Feraud on bass. He’s playing his white Ken Smith 5-string through a Markbass rig, and the tone is huge. Clean but gritty, smooth but with just enough edge to push the song forward. Nobody sounds like Hadrien when he digs in.
What hits hardest here is the groove. There’s a pocket in this track that leans closer to soul and R&B. It’s funky, it’s deep, and it gives the song a pulse that keeps you locked in. That’s the kind of feel only a bassist like Hadrien can bring.
