In a move that screams “rebel with a cause,” the legendary DJ and producer, Seth Troxler, has decided to embark on a new music journey like no other. Behold, the birth of “Slacker 85” — a label that’s all about grooves, giggles, and going against the conventional beat!
Picture Seth, with his iconic curly hair and mischievous grin, scribbling down ideas on a napkin at a local diner. The waitress, curious about his doodles, leans in and catches a glimpse of his vision. Lo and behold, the blueprint of “Slacker 85” is revealed — a label dedicated to curating tunes that are the perfect blend of relaxation and rebellion.
But why “Slacker 85”? Legend has it that Seth stumbled upon a time capsule from the ’80s, filled with cassette tapes, neon leg warmers, and a VHS tape of “Footloose.” Inspired by the laid-back vibes of slacker culture and the vibrant energy of the ’80s, he knew he had stumbled upon the perfect ingredients for a genre-defying music revolution.
The label’s headquarters are anything but ordinary. Enter the converted bowling alley with disco ball chandeliers, where employees slide around the office in socks, embracing the slacker spirit. Rumor has it that every meeting begins with a dance-off, and the winner gets to decide the day’s playlist. No watercooler chat here—just funky fresh conversations amidst the hustle and bustle of a music utopia.
But what about the music, you ask? Picture a cocktail of sounds—disco, funk, and house beats colliding with quirky synth melodies, forming a genre that defies classification. The artists that Seth signs aren’t just musicians; they’re time-traveling minstrels from a parallel universe, armed with groove-infused tunes that’ll make even the most stoic person break into a smile.
At “Slacker 85,” creativity is king, and spontaneity reigns supreme. Record signings happen during spontaneous karaoke sessions, where artists belt out their original tracks, turning the label’s office into a dancefloor extravaganza. The standard contract negotiations involve hula-hoops, balancing acts, and impromptu beatboxing duels.
So, what does the future hold for “Slacker 85”? Nobody knows for sure, and that’s the beauty of it! The label thrives on unpredictable adventures, where each release is like a cosmic rollercoaster ride—twists, turns, and surprises at every corner.
