Cardboard by Toadface

After his unforgettable Bugs for Breakfast album in 2018, Toadface reappears on WAKAAN with new single, ‘Cardboard,’ off his forthcoming full length EP. Obscure and unpredictable, yet still landing in Toadface’s obscure freeform territory, ‘Cardboard’ poses a question to the reality of certain things, all while maintaining an experimental, sound system-derived beat. Dripping in cascading falsetto synthesizers and steady bass, Toadface elevates the single by weaving subtle details, vocal samples and analog sounds, with an overlaying eastern influence and instrumentation.

Heading on the road in fall of 2022 with labelmate TVBOO for the Blue Collar Bass tour presented by WAKAAN, Toadface doesn’t stop there, already confirmed for two massive TBA tours in spring and winter of 2023. In addition to touring, the hungry producer has also performed at several large scale festivals throughout the US and internationally, including Shambhala, EDC Las Vegas, Imagine Music Festival, Lost Lands, Infrasound, and more.

“Cardboard refers to the feelings of thinking something is real only to realize later it was fake the whole time. The sample ‘so many details’ refers to how real you thought the thing was until taking a closer look.” - Toadface
