In the fifty-seventh episode of the Hidden Driveway Show, I had the honor of interviewing Hank Rubeé, an experimental rap artist from Modesto, California. He's the creator of his own label Cockroach Music, and really caught my eye due to his unique take of industrial hip hop. I hope you enjoy!HANK RUBEÉ'S SOCIALShttps://x.com/hankrubeehttps://www.instagram.com/hankrubee/https://soundcloud.com/hank-rubeeHIDDEN DRIVEWAY SOCIALShttps://twitter.com/hiddendriveway_https://www.instagram.com/hiddendriveway_/Listen to Hidden Driveway on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3hSJP0juKCmJYHYmHVzS00?si=e4602b80dda54cf1Curated Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/07YUuoKvKv9J97PEyCDPTp?si=f0dbc4ded45a4586Curated SoundCloud Playlist: https://soundcloud.com/aamufr/sets/hidden-drivewayAAMU'S SOCIALShttps://twitter.com/aamufrhttps://www.instagram.com/aamufr/https://soundcloud.com/aamufrSHOUTOUT TO RESTLESS TOO FOR MAKING THE THUMBNAILhttps://x.com/restlessbaghttps://www.instagram.com/restlesslp/https://soundcloud.com/prodrestlessIntroduction - 0:00Promoting his new album COCKROACH MUSIC (OUT NOW), and discussing his sound choices for Trauma Response - 0:19How Hank Rubeé got into making music - 2:12Hank Rubeé’s influences - 3:21Being involved in the Modesto industrial / noise scene - 10:16How the scene impacts his music, and how he wants his music to be perceived - 21:33How he met some of his friends in the scene - 27:24His family not understanding his music - 28:34What Hank Rubeé daydreams about - 29:57Our dreams - 36:56His favorite memories from winter break as a kid - 43:24Not using any samples in his music, and using Studio One - 48:36The process for working on Tear Bucket Vol. 1 with Cameron Shull - 52:41Speaking on consistently deleting his music - 1:00:04Wanting to make and promote his music on his own terms - 1:02:55How his past experiences influence who he is today - 1:08:04Intense game of rock paper scissors - 1:12:07Being open to doing a Tear Bucket Vol. 2 - 1:13:53Things Hank Rubeé is scared of - 1:14:39How his fears have changed as he’s gotten older - 1:22:36The political and economic state of the world right now - 1:26:56How Hank Rubeé visualizes his art - 1:34:28What’s next for Hank Rubeé? - 1:37:06Shoutouts - 1:38:43Outro - 1:39:13sorry if the audio feels slightly off sync in this one, i forgot to do a clap sync in this one and while ive been trying to get it aligned it still feels off to me : (loved getting to do this interview tho, hanks such an interesting person and im really glad i got to talk to him and spotlight his work :D#hank #rubee #hidden #driveway #show #underground #artist #aamu #interview #modesto #california #industrialhiphop #noise #rap #davewontdie #cameron #shull #tyler #laforce #discography #tear #bucket #cockroach #music
