MT: What is it that you look
for in a good song?
Ki: It’s a feeling. When I
hear it, does it move me? Do
I connect to it right away? Is
the artist really into it? You
know, some of the music I’ve
gotten, it doesn’t seem like the
artist is really connected with
the track…it shows through.
But then a lot of the music
I get, you can just hear how
the artist is connected with
the music and feels good. So
what I look for is just something that I can connect to,
whether it’s the track, the
words, the hook, the way the
artists’ voice rides the track.
But it’s always different because I like different genres
of music. I initially look for
an “IT” factor….that thing we
call the Misfit Gene around

know what “it” is, but when
you hear it you say “yeah,
they’ve got that Misfit Gene.”

be a vehicle for the artists to
get exposure, to connect with
their fans, and the people that

to get them more exposure. I
want to see how far I can go
as a tool for the artists. This
is going to be the first phase
of the Misfit Movement.
We’re trying to encompass
all media….TV, radio, everything! The world is so
angry right now, much angrier
than it used to be. There’s
a lot of stuff going on with
the government, politicians,
unemployment, and police
brutality that I want to infuse
some happiness and good
times back into the world….
and what better way to do that
than with good music.

MT: What is your ultimate
goal for Misfit Tunes?
Ki: Ultimately I want it to
be the artists’ favorite vehicle
and platform to get their music out. I want it to be somewhere where you can come
and not have to be a member,
you don’t have to provide us
with your information to listen
to good music. You can join
a mailing list to get updates
if you want, but it’s not required. I just really want it to

Late late night when the city

calmness, a true allure. Between midnight and dawn....
