Berlin-based Sasha Dawe-better known as David Stars’- musical style defies simple categories. Post-Punk Folk is as close as I’ve come, but still falls short in describing the work of this eclectic young artist. Think the Norweigian-German shoe-gazing sound of The Whitest Boy Alive as a starting point. With perhaps a hint of Jeff Tweedy’s sideways sarcasm and James Dean’s squinting scowl that questions the underlying fabric of deeply-held assumptions, all with a sublime youthful freedom at the sunset of that inherent innocence. WC Turck discusses David’s EP, The Cellar Sessions, c collaborations with local DJs, The Hustle and DJ Kitec and some of his favorite African recipes.
