How Our Song Got Sampled by Travis Scott: A Wild Ride
So, you're probably thinking, "How the heck did a song by us end up on a Travis Scott track?" Trust me, we thought the same thing. It's a story that involves a lot of lucky breaks, a little bit of hustle, and a whole lot of disbelief.
Let's rewind a bit. Back in 2019, we were just a couple of guys making music in our basement. We had this one song, "Cosmic Groove," that we thought had a cool vibe. It was raw, a little psychedelic, and definitely had that "something special" factor. We uploaded it to SoundCloud, just to see what would happen.
A Message From The Stars (or Maybe Just a Random DM)
A couple months later, out of the blue, we got a message from a producer we knew vaguely. He said he'd been jamming to "Cosmic Groove" and thought Travis Scott's team might like it. We were skeptical, but we figured, why not? We sent him the instrumental and hoped for the best.
We didn't hear anything for a while, and we honestly forgot about it. Then, one day, we got a call from our producer. He was practically shouting, "Dude, 'Cosmic Groove' is on Travis Scott's new album!"
The Feeling Was Surreal
We literally couldn't believe it. We had been fans of Travis Scott for ages, and now our song was officially part of his music. We were a mix of emotions: excited, nervous, shocked, and incredibly proud.
The whole experience was crazy. The song dropped, and we were watching the world react in real time. Seeing our name on the credits, hearing fans react, and even getting a few messages from Travis Scott's team themselves — it was wild.
The Takeaways
This whole experience taught us a few things:
- Never give up on your dreams: Even if you're just starting out, keep putting your music out there. You never know who might hear it.
- Collaborations can be life-changing: Don't be afraid to reach out to other artists and producers. You might be surprised at the opportunities that arise.
- Ride the wave: When you get that lucky break, embrace it! It's an incredible feeling to see your music resonate with so many people.
So, there you have it. Our song got sampled by Travis Scott, and we're still trying to process it all. It's a reminder that anything can happen if you keep putting yourself out there.
