Big O

Artist Big O’s new single, “Sounds of Broken Pieces,” marks a bold chapter — an experimental instrumental hip hop track crafted from inventive sound design, unique textures, and a fearless pursuit of originality.

1. Your new single “Sounds of Broken Pieces” is an instrumental hip hop track. Can you tell us how this piece came to life and what sparked the initial idea?

This piece came together from my desire to try something different. “Sounds of Broken Pieces” relies heavily on sound design, synths, and originality. These elements that really push me outside my usual creative comfort zone.

2. You mentioned wanting to make something “original and out of the ordinary.” What steps did you take in the production or composition process to achieve that uniqueness?

For this track in particular, I experimented by using broken pieces of glass and buttons inside a bucket, sampling those sounds to create unique background textures. Across the entire album, my focus was on exploring different subgenres and sonic textures through sound design.

3. As an instrumental artist, how do you express emotion and narrative without lyrics? What feelings or imagery do you hope listeners experience while hearing this track?

For me, the music I create acts as a soundtrack to my inner thoughts, distant memories, and imagination. When I make music, it’s primarily for myself, a personal journey, but when others connect with it and find something they love, that’s when it feels complete.

4. How does “Sounds of Broken Pieces” differ from your previous work, both sonically and creatively?

As I mentioned earlier, this song thrives on its originality and experimental approach. There’s nothing like it in my discography.

5. The title itself is quite evocative — “Sounds of Broken Pieces.” Does it represent something personal, or is it more of a conceptual artistic choice?

The title “Sounds of Broken Pieces” came naturally. Once I finished the track and listened back, that’s exactly what it sounded like to me.

6. Looking ahead, do you see this single as a new direction for your music, or more as a one-off experiment in pushing your sound’s boundaries?

This track marks a new direction and a new era for me, not just sonically but creatively. With this album, I made a vow to challenge myself and step into unfamiliar territory and I truly feel like I’ve achieved that.
