Liner notes

Dimes is about being over-worked, underpaid, under appreciated, and stuck living in an unfulfilling loop. The loop will never end unless you face the problem. This ends with a meditative frequency bath great for healing vibes needed to get out of the endless loop.

About the artist

Opposites do more than attract. Their fusion generates friction and sparks energy. Representing opposing sides of the spectrum, Kristin Sanchez [DJ, producer, engineer] and Desereé Fawn Zimmerman [drums, guitar, vocals] comprise one dynamic and diverse whole in Dance Loud. The Chicago duo co-mingles Fawn’s live instrumentation steeped in classical training with Sanchez’s electronic production and DJ wizardry. Acclaimed by Chicago Tribune and sharpened into a live force via countless shows since their 2008 formation, the pair push the full potential of this union on their 2020 independent full-length debut, The Moment.

“Duality seems to be a constant theme in our life together,” states Kristin. “We’re each other’s creative opposite. Desereé is a total metalhead with jazz and gospel roots. I’ve always been into bouncy club music and started out as a Latin and soulful DJ. When you put us together, you get Dance Loud. The Moment reflects both halves where the beginning of the track listing is more like me, and the bottom half is super emotional like Desereé. The one thing that never changed is the fact we really like high tempos. It’s the midnight BPM at 128.”

“We call it ‘Emotional Dance Music’,” adds Desereé. “You can experience it together, but it’s almost meant to be heard alone.”

Lyrics

In one of my part-times,
My boss makes a dollar and I make a dime
So I shit on my boss’s time
I’m underpaid and in over-time
Like a never-ending story
With zero glory
Why not, when it’s a waste
A problem I have yet to face
You pay me in dimes
You only pay me in dimes
The sun is rising
The time is turning
Why wait, when it’s a waste
A problem I have yet to face
You pay me in dimes
You, pay me in dimes
Create
Don’t wait
It’s your fate
Don’t hesitate
I’ll work, for my soul
To be a better being
To live out, all my feelings
Do or die
I don’t wanna give you my whole life
My youth, my prime
For you to pay me, you pay me in dies
You pay me in dimes
I don’t wanna give you my whole life
My youth, my prime
For you to pay me, nothing more than a f’in dime
