Nosaj Thing
It is often said that you should never judge a book by its cover. But you know what? That shit is just not true. If you see a book cover with an oil painting of a pale maiden in 18th century dress, with a lovelorn look on her face, staring out across the English countryside…we promise you, that book sucks.
However, in the world of music a similar adage often proves to be true - namely that you should never judge the music by its maker. You can go to to Hot Topic and buy the “rock n roll look” right off the rack before you even take your first guitar lesson. As such, you should never write somebody off just because they don’t look like they spent last night shooting heroin into their eyeballs (a sign of true musical genius, btw).
Take, for example, LA electronic artist Nosaj Thing (née Jason Chung). He looks like he should be helping you with your physics homework. Heck, you might even let him date your sister. But Jason doesn’t have time for that. Know why? Because he’s too busy making face-melting electronica and remixing records for Health and Daedelus. It turns out that behind those shaggy bangs and mountains of computer parts lies one bad motherfucker. Judge not, lest ye be judged.
