F-105 has released his second EP of 2024, F-105 II: Side A is out now and available on Apple Music and Spotify.
THE STORY OF F-105 II: SIDE A
Hot off the afterburners of F-105 III: Baby Makes Three Mix, F-105 releases another EP for 2024. The band played live for 2 years to prepare 6 songs for a 6 hour live off the floor beds session at the Meriläinen Music recording studio. They did it in 5 hours! Din sang temp “guide” vocals thinking he’d redo them at another session. However, not being concerned about his performance ironically made his recorded “guide” vocals sound natural and just like he does them live. So they decided to keep them. No click tracks, no auto tune. Just rock n roll. This is a testament to how Din (vocals/guitar), Isaac Daniel Eng (bass/vocals), AJ Jiang (keys/vocals) and Elvis Lewis (drums/vocals) gelled over those two years.
SHORT BIO
If you were to ask Din (aka F-105), what motivates and moves him to make music, he’d have one answer: To use the force of music to tell the stories and express the common emotions that connect us all in the human experience. He has honed his songwriting and performance style for two decades (touring worldwide), playing coffee shops, clubs and festivals. As F-105 (and formerly The Soles), Din has built a reputation as a songwriting force, a singer with pipes, and a commanding stage presence, second to none. Din’s heart lies in authentically expressing his emotions and only writes songs to that effect, not what he thinks others will like. He has learned (through 9 albums and touring), that the only thing that connects with anyone else is your own truth. Din lives to make music that finds the common threads that makes all people one.
F-105 II: Side A was released November 15th 2024
F-105 III: Baby Makes Three Mix was released May 4th 2024
Happy listening!
