Marouf discovered the entity called \u201cBlackGummy\u201d in 2013 during a trip to the Middle East and Asia, and instantly formed a unique and inseparable bond with the alien-like idol. Since their first meeting, the producer and the entity have virtually conjoined into an indivisible whole, never leaving one another\u2019s side.<\/p>\n<p>Trained by Steve Duda, the legendary sound engineer (who counts mau5trap head honcho deadmau5 among his frequent collaborators) and creator of the Serum VST, BlackGummy consistently showcases his unique prowess for employing a wide variety of entirely original sounds in his songs. A graduate of the Icon Collective music production school in Burbank, CA, BlackGummy and Duda met via the school\u2019s mentorship program, where his apprenticeship under the venerable sound engineer helped to hone the young producer\u2019s sound design and engineering skills. That is when BlackGummy started beta testing the Serum VST for Duda (and is accordingly listed in the VST\u2019s credits, along with deadmau5 himself).<\/p>\n<p>BlackGummy has an obsessive fascination for sound design and music production. He views his productions as checkpoints in a tireless quest to improve his mastery of this skill, routinely spending 15 hours a day honing his craft. In 2015, mau5trap discovered BlackGummy, and immediately recognized his unique prowess for production and sound design. Later that year, the label released BlackGummy\u2019s first original \u2014 \u201cLullaby\u201d \u2014 on mau5trap\u2019s We Are Friends compilation, which Earmilk called a \u201ccan\u2019t miss.\u201d Most recently, in February 2016, mau5trap released BlackGummy\u2019s debut EP titled \u201cSingularity,\u201d inspired by the concept of \u201ctechnological singularity,\u201d which Dancing Astronaut praised as \u201can intriguing artistic vision,\u201d which \u201cmoves uninhibited from dark industrial to uplifting progressive, challenging the notion that producing one style necessitates ignoring the other.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since the implicit convergence of the producer\u2019s and idol\u2019s identities into one amalgamation, BlackGummy spends almost all of his time locked away, with the idol, in his in-home studio, crafting new productions that attempt to lend a voice to the silent idol. He only withdraws from his studio in rare instances: first, to perform alongside the idol in nightclubs and music venues, and second, to search the four-corners of the Earth for more clues as to the idol\u2019s origins. His fascination with the latter arose from a Latin inscription that lay emblazoned beside the idol when he first discovered it.<\/p>\n<p>The quote read, \u201cIn perpetuum, salutem in omnibus locis; In omni loco, in omni tempore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"BlackGummy\" width=\"500\" height=\"450\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?visual=true&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Fusers%2F1344407&#038;show_artwork=true&#038;maxheight=750&#038;maxwidth=500\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BLACKGUMMY BlackGummy began as the brainchild of Los Angeles-based producer Iman Marouf.
