COOKIN' STU - Episode 3
What no one really knows (until now) is that even though this is Episode 3, it was actually the first Cookin’ Stu session we ever recorded. So technically, this is where the madness began. And somehow, that madness led to a psychedelic dub track, a groovy funk tune, and an indie pop anthem—because why commit to one genre when you can do three? Along the way, we set a world record (4+ bass tracks on one song—it blew our minds), invented drum sounds using post-it notes, and spontaneously started speaking French. Because when creativity hits, sometimes you just roll with it.
