Los Angeles Producer Gloomer Drops Flashy New Single “Wait Up”
Elliott Kozel, best known as the Los Angeles-based producer Gloomer, has returned with his sophomore solo track “Wait Up”. Following his previous single “Drumjoy”, Incorporating grungy, lo-fi electronic rock with flashy, high speed hyper-guitar-pop, the new single is a mesh of influences, time periods, and sound.
Speaking on the song and its accompanying video, Kozel reflects: “It’s about being surrounded by drug addicts and mentally unstable people who need help but not having any energy left to help them. The music video is a collaboration between myself and director Ryan Thompson, who has worked on videos for many artists including Bon Iver, Lizzo, S. Carey, Sylvan Esso, Low, and Policia. I flew out to Santa Fe, NM where he lives and spent a week stealing grocery carts and buying up all the rubber cement in town to set things on fire with. We pumped over 30 gallons of fake blood out of a tube discreetly placed in my sleeve to create the blood effects.”
