Artist Close-Up: Cautious Clay Takes Risk In “Blood Type”

Cautious Clay is bringing R&B into EDM futurism in his new EP Blood Type. The genre of smooth appeals to those who want to swim their feelings of desire and heartache, of which Cautious Clay traps that swim in a bouncing, at times raging, EDM synth-wave. Suddenly, what was an ocean drive through sentiments becomes a mystical storm of feelings, beats, and a message: Cautious Clay is here to slay.

“Silos”, “Juliet + Caesar” , and “Elsewhere” are moved by Clay’s suave, unruffled voice. He describes love as if it is a tense fairytale that he manages to narrate fluently. No track of his goes without a trap back-drop and entrapped theme; for some reason love makes him feel still but never settled. It is as if love grabs you, and then lifts you from the ground. Yet, Cautious Clay sings to deciphering whether you should give in to that grasp, which is why I am obsessed with how cool and level-headed his vocals sound.

If love puts you in a panic then Cautious Clay is here to calm you down. From “Cold War” to “Blood Type” these songs are even titled with a sense of urgency, but Cautious Clay goes unfazed; stroking through digitized rhythms to find some heart. The result is music that sounds like the future but thematically pulses without a sense of time. We all will struggle to submit to love, but, luckily, Cautious Clay has submitted to music.
