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 - 0:00 Promoting his new album COCKROACH MUSIC (OUT NOW), and discussing his sound choices for Trauma Response - 0:19 How Hank Rubeé got into making music - 2:12 Hank Rubeé’s influences - 3:21 Being involved in the Modesto industrial / noise scene - 10:16 How the scene impacts his music, and how he wants his music to be perceived - 21:33 How he met some of his friends in the scene - 27:24 His family not understanding his music - 28:34 What Hank Rubeé daydreams about - 29:57 Our dreams - 36:56 His favorite memories from winter break as a kid - 43:24 Not using any samples in his music, and using Studio One - 48:36 The process for working on Tear Bucket Vol. 1 with Cameron Shull - 52:41 Speaking on consistently deleting his music - 1:00:04 Wanting to make and promote his music on his own terms - 1:02:55 How his past experiences influence who he is today - 1:08:04 Intense game of rock paper scissors - 1:12:07 Being open to doing a Tear Bucket Vol. 2 - 1:13:53 Things Hank Rubeé is scared of - 1:14:39 How his fears have changed as he’s gotten older - 1:22:36 The political and economic state of the world right now - 1:26:56 How Hank Rubeé visualizes his art - 1:34:28 What’s next for Hank Rubeé? - 1:37:06 Shoutouts - 1:38:43 Outro - 1:39:13 sorry 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
