Sanjeev T Introduces A New Artistic Persona as Kulture Cid

By Sanjeev Thomas' own admission, “genre-bending” has been something he specializes in. From funky rock to groovy fusion, the artist now has a new persona with Kulture Cid. The project’s debut song “Do You Get It?” with Brampton hip-hop artist TheOriginalGurv offers slick pop that wants to have a deeper conversation about life.

Thomas also directed the music video, which revolves around metaphors of good and evil and has the visual aesthetic of a modern pop song. “Kulture Cid is a visual storyteller, combining my love for music and film,” the artist says. Although there aren’t any audible guitar elements in “Do You Get It?” we still see Thomas with a guitar in hand. He jokes about the scene as playing a “mere actor” while the rest of it introduces the world to Kulture Cid.

DANCE-FLOOR BLISS AND THE SEARCH FOR (POST-) HUMAN CONNECTION

Over the course of roughly a decade, CARIBOU, the electronic-leaning project from Canadian musician and composer Dan Snaith, has released intricate, sonically inventive records that cradle rhythm and history. On \"Home,\" from 2020's Suddenly, he coos softly alongside a frenetic flip of Gloria Barnes' 1971 single of the same name. There, the subtle cracks and gestures in his voice manage to breathe life into the digitally-manipulated sample. Caribou's music has so far thrived on this quality — Snaith's seemingly boundless musical curiosity and his ability to crystalize big ideas into euphoric moments of dance-floor bliss. It's why his choice to use artificial intelligence on his vocals for his latest album, Honey, feels like a misstep. Here, Snaith's voice is transformed in character and identity, at times creating revelatory moments, like on \"Come Find Me,\" where he's reimagined as a treacly-toned young woman, though in small enough doses for it to work. Elsewhere, like on the rap-adjacent \"Campfire,\" where Snaith renders himself as the sort of rapper you might hear on a Caribou track (think Definitive Jux vibes), the concept breaks down.
