AOTM : feb 2022
TOSOB EVERY MONTH BRINGS FORTH A SELECTED ARTIST THAT WE BELIEVE, GLOBALLY DESERVES TO BE PAID ATTENTION TO.
ARTIST OF THE MONTH: feb 2022 x Shervaan Bergsteedt
aliens exist, if you need proof, then you definitely should be aware who in space is Shervaan Bergsteedt, cause nothing comes than having a solid imprint in odd and fuzzy sounds from the genesis….and it goes without a doubt.
Shervaan first came into my play list around 2015 with clip from The Tunnel Recordings titled The Movement and i started paying attention to the craft at hand. I’ve had several occasions to see him play, mostly at Deep Town Jozi and some numerous podcast guest mixes and he moves swiftly with the groove to ensure a symphonic cartel ensuring a radical threat to all those taking chances.
What really makes it overall awesome, IS listening to his projects and collabos, is the people he gets to work with and share the light with, if it’s not handpicked, i can definitely assume Shervan has a strict criteria of not dropping standards, cause nothing comes as a draft, all is top not quality!
Hailing from Johannesburg, I used to bump a lot of hist stuff visiting my family in Eldorado Park, and I believe that’s where the lad resides in his dungeon cause the name is very familiar in the streets, it’s definitely underground, from my experience either way. Wait until you catch a drift on his particular offering titled COCKAIGNE out on Round Robin Records thrown out in 2021, in he simplifies the justification by the middle charted track called Meraki…which carries the weight of everything and transcends immaculately into a cord transition of perfection!
From the privilege I’ve had sharing talks and ideas with Shervaan Bergsteedt, he strikes me and carries himself as calm, grounded, humble and definitely resembles enough humanity that just oozes without question, making it very easy to read in spec what he’s all about.
We had Gods before the existence, and Titans we’re the blueprint of life above all. Shervaan, you carry the resemblance of titans and make it all look easy.
