Los Angeles: Nothing he does is normal. His outfits. His online persona. Being from Kansas. He just did a Super Bowl commercial with Shania Twain, and before that, he was in the studio with Ye. His music, which has been described with a mix of terms ranging from dance to pop to jungle to drum and bass, trades on a nostalgia that other producers have chased for decades. Trying to compare Deaton Chris Anthony misses the point\u2014he\u2019s just doing Deaton.<\/b><\/p>\r\n

Deaton\u2019s first exposure to music through his mum\u2014and to some of the earliest computers through his dad\u2014shaped his self-made approach to his craft. Digging through deep-cut R&B tracks and YouTube tutorials, Deaton taught himself how to loop samples on instruments like the original Amiga, a computer from the \u201880s that became the backbone of his early experimentation. He layered addictive rhythms beneath the grain and Nintendo-like glow of the Amiga, eventually adding in his own beats and lyrics. His brand of time-honoured pop has worked its way into songs by Charli XCX and PinkPantheress, and it\u2019s on display across four of his own albums. Deaton is one of those rare people who has a very clear vision of the art he wants to produce, but he also has the passion and the expertise to see it through from concept to completion. He uniquely can create the world he wants to live in. And for the past decade, he has. <\/b><\/p>\r\n

Deaton Chris Anthony is actually an alias, a character that originally allowed this kid from Kansas to embody his creativity. Deaton has made a name for himself, literally, by developing an identity meticulously inspired by his family\u2019s saga, making a myth of his parents\u2019 unlikely union, his solitary childhood, and the first Mariah Carey CD his mum gave him. Our conversation turned into a sort of admin reveal. As Deaton works on his latest album, the last dedicated to his family\u2019s history, I see him processing this moment as a turning point in his career. He\u2019s ready to invite the audience into the truth of the stories he\u2019s telling through his music. He\u2019s stepping into something new\u2014not as a character, but as himself.<\/b><\/p>"},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"

You\u2019re not traditionally schooled, are you?","answer":"I would sit with my mum when I was three years old, and she could read music and play complete pieces. I remember asking her, \u2018How\u2019d you learn how to play the piano?\u2019 And she said, \u2018I taught myself\u2019. I\u2019ve been completely obsessed with that my entire life."},{"question":"Where did you grow up?","answer":"I grew up in Kansas in a small town. There\u2019s the dentist\u2019s office, there\u2019s a park, and it\u2019s like, John Doe\u2019s teacher down at the school. I pull up to the grocery store\u2014it\u2019s the same cashier that\u2019s always been there, and I get some Lunchables or whatever the hell. The thing is, man, I\u2019m chasing the creativity that I had when I lived in my parents\u2019 basement in this cul-de-sac. Nothing\u2019s going on, so my mind went everywhere. There was nothing to get in the way of just letting my imagination unfold. I still wish that I was in that mindset because it felt like the whole world was open for me."},{"question":"You think it was an age thing?","answer":"I think it was that era. This is 2013, 2014, and Tumblr was alive and well. I would only listen to my parents\u2019 music up until high school, when finally I was like, wait, I should find music I actually like. That\u2019s when I crossed paths with Vaporwave. I would listen to music and then scroll through Tumblr and merge the mood of the music to what I was seeing. Tumblr in its prime was very informative."}]},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image_size":"full","gallery":[158404]},{"acf_fc_layout":"two_blocks","block_sizes":"half_50_50","content_type_left":"image","image_size_left":"regular","image_left":158429,"video_left_url":"","video_caption_left":"","video_left_type":false,"text_left":"","credit_image":null,"credit_link_left":null,"content_type_right":"image","image_size_right":"regular","image_right":158428,"video_right_url":"","video_caption_right":"","video_right_type":false,"text_right":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"interview","interview":[{"question":"Did your pops play music too?","answer":"My dad\u2019s a big computer guy, so we had all the first game consoles. We had a lot of the early computers. He\u2019s an engineer, and I remember growing up, he had three desks and he always had a project. Now he has ten 3D printers, and he\u2019s always building things. I totally got my dad\u2019s engineering brain, and then my mum\u2019s the musician and the creative in the traditional sense. I kind of got the perfect merge of worlds."},{"question":"Did you have something in Kansas where you\u2019re like, someone\u2019s killing it and I can look up to them?","answer":"I started making music in 2013, and Vaporwave was definitely in its prime at that time\u2014very much an internet aesthetic and a genre of music that was mainly on Bandcamp and SoundCloud. I was obsessed with that music, and it felt like a great entry point for me because it\u2019s all sample-based. It\u2019s literally just taking old R&B tracks and slowing them down and adding reverb to them.\r\n\r\nI stumbled upon 18 Carat Affair then. He was in a lot of these Bronze56K skate videos, and his music\u2019s just the sickest. I looked on his SoundCloud, and it said he was from Kansas. Turns out, he literally lived 10 minutes from my house. I hit him up and was like, \u2018Dude, you\u2019re an actual legend\u2019. I met up with him, and that was my very first session. We went into a little shed\/studio in his backyard. I\u2019d never worked with anyone musically. I pulled up with all my samples, and he had a tape machine and a couple samplers, and we just really got along. My first album had him featuring on it, which was a huge, super sick start to my musical career. I moved to LA, and that launched me out here to some relevance."}]},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image_size":"regular","gallery":[158403,158432]},{"acf_fc_layout":"interview","interview":[{"question":"How did you come to understand rhythm?","answer":"Honestly, I think rhythm for me came from skate videos. I didn\u2019t understand editing when I was a kid, so I\u2019d think, dude, they found the perfect song for the video because they land right on the beat every time. I was so amazed by that. When I started to edit my own skate films\u2014it\u2019s very percussive, popping a trick, getting into the grind and landing. It is the same as a drum fill or a hi-hat. That was when I really started to understand rhythm in a track."},{"question":"Do you remember the first video where you felt really conscious of the music?","answer":"I feel like it was Shorty\u2019s Guilty<\/em>."},{"question":"I remember Dustin Dollin\u2019s part in Baker 3<\/em> where he\u2019s skating to Children of Bodom. That was my hook for filmmaking.","answer":"I feel like my first real passion was skateboarding, but then the music in my films made me realise I actually want to make music. Making music is what I love."},{"question":"Give me the rundown on some of the synths you use in your music.","answer":"The \u201880s sound the way the \u201880s do because of the DX7. You can make it sound like a saxophone or a voice or drums, but it doesn\u2019t sound like a real saxophone. You get that cheesy \u201880s sound, and that was really exciting to me."}]},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image_size":"regular","gallery":[158433,158420,158405,158419]},{"acf_fc_layout":"interview","interview":[{"question":"Why\u2019d you pick this instrumentation for making music?","answer":"I remember when I first started making music, I didn\u2019t know how you even got sound into a computer. Is it a cable that goes\u2026? I didn\u2019t understand anything about it, so I actually learnt how to sample. I was like, I can just take something that already exists and pitch it or reverse it. And I realised too, all my favourite music was sample-based, so that was kind of my thing. I moved to LA, and a lot of people would be like, \u2018How\u2019d you get that sound on that one track? That snare?\u2019 And I was like, \u2018Oh, it\u2019s a sample\u2019. \u2018What sample is it? Like a drum machine?\u2019 And I\u2019m like, \u2018No, no, no. The whole thing is a sample\u2019. I remember people being kind of bummed, and I was like, oh, I\u2019m not respected as a musician. But it sounds good! It\u2019s a good song."},{"question":"There must\u2019ve been a turning point where you started making your own samples?","answer":"All my favourite things that I sampled were made with equipment, so first, I needed to learn what equipment it was. It was like, that actual sound is patch 37 on the D-50. I can remake that exact thing. That was my intro. I would find old R&B tracks and decipher the sounds, or I would look on forums. What is this harmonica patch? And then I\u2019d get the DX7, find that patch, and start to remake the samples. Eventually it was more interesting to try and find my own sounds."}]},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image_size":"full","gallery":[158431]},{"acf_fc_layout":"interview","interview":[{"question":"You mentioned early R&B tracks. What are some examples? What era are we talking here?","answer":"It was probably, like, \u201886 to \u201889. That was the OG, where I started. Everything was icy as hell\u2014ear-piercing, icy sounds, all warmth gone. Just digital, icy shit."},{"question":"What\u2019s the quintessential icy track?","answer":"I found this blog called The Isle of Deserted Popstars<\/em>, and it was literally that\u2014some homie who was obsessed with one-hit wonders from the \u201880s. All of the samples I was fucking with from that era were from these weird, unknown R&B musicians. They\u2019re pretty obscure. There\u2019s one artist I want to reference that I think has been, besides Mariah Carey, the real North Star. Her name is Millie Scott. Pretty low-key. She\u2019s got this record called Love Me Right<\/em>, and it\u2019s just the most insane production, as \u201880s as you can get. I\u2019ve been chasing that sound for years, trying to track down the exact drum machines they used, even going on Discogs and finding the engineers of the project, trying to find them on Facebook, trying to DM them. I\u2019m like, \u2018What drum machine did you use on Love Me Right<\/em>?\u2019"},{"question":"I love that shit. Did you have a first song that was like, this is a DCA song?","answer":"I think it all started with \u2018Wi-Fi Or Wifey\u2019. That was the beginning of, OK, I figured out my little thing."}]},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image_size":"regular","gallery":[158415]},{"acf_fc_layout":"interview","interview":[{"question":"What\u2019s the goal when you\u2019re making a DCA record? What are you aiming for?","answer":"I tell stories through sounds. My favourite thing is to have an album be a plot. Films have slow moments, and they have adventurous moments; there\u2019s conflict. To me, that is a record: to go from the prettiest, happiest thing and contrast that with something truly dark. You can\u2019t make something sound sweet unless it\u2019s in the context of something dark. On all my records, I love to make colourful, fun music, but I have even more fun making just the scariest music."},{"question":"When was the first time you produced for somebody else?","answer":"I produced a couple tracks for Charli XCX for that album Crash<\/em>. That felt special to work on."},{"question":"How\u2019d that come about?","answer":"She hit me up and was like, \u2018I want to make a Janet Jackson record\u2019. At the time, I had just released a record that was kind of reminiscent of that sound. She came over to my house, we did a session, and then she invited me over to this crazy house up in the hills and we worked for three or four days. Then everything got locked down during Covid, and I was like, man, I guess that one\u2019s not going to come out. Then I got a random text a year and a half later, and it was like, \u2018Hey, song\u2019s done, Caroline Polachek and Christine and the Queens hopped on it\u2019. I was in pure shock. That was my very first written and produced track. That\u2019s a special milestone for me."}]},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image_size":"full","gallery":[158424]},{"acf_fc_layout":"interview","interview":[{"question":"Tell me about the Amiga. I remember I came to your studio years ago and you showed it to me and I was blown away.","answer":"Just before Windows and Mac took over the world, Amiga was the shit. It was the computer that people used to invent a whole type of music\u2014drum and bass, jungle, and a lot of dance music. I am such a fan of that type of dance music, and I really wanted an authentic way to make early rave jungle stuff."},{"question":"How did you come to find the Amiga and put your own samples on it?","answer":"I got my Amiga because there\u2019s actually an old photo of my dad, and he\u2019s wearing a leather jacket and speeder shades. It\u2019s a \u201890s pic of him. He would tell me how he used to club back in Sweden, where he is from. It\u2019s inside me, that dance music, because my dad did it. But I lived in Kansas; there was nowhere to go and listen to that type of music in my world, so I could only dream of what that was like.\r\n\r\nThis sound is so \u201880s. It\u2019s the first Mario. If you imagine the sounds he makes as he jumps, like a bleep\u2014the Amiga makes those sounds. These cartridges came out, which you plug in the back, and all of a sudden you can sample in audio. It runs through all of the Amiga\u2019s chips and components, which makes it sound so bad, but really good at the same time. Now everyone\u2019s trying to chase a little bit of that noise or that crunch, so having the real thing is really special. But the process of making a song\u2014it\u2019s so limited that I feel like I make very easy-to-understand music. I don\u2019t have the option to complicate things. Pretty much every song I start is on the Amiga."}]},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image_size":"regular","gallery":[158422,158414,158421,158417]},{"acf_fc_layout":"interview","interview":[{"question":"You definitely didn\u2019t go down the obvious route for making music.","answer":"It\u2019s not the easy route. But instead of sitting in front of the piano and learning my scales, I\u2019m learning how to enter commands on the Amiga. I pull up to my sessions now with my Amiga. People come with a guitar, I come with this, and it\u2019s the same thing. At the end of the day, we\u2019re making music. But that\u2019s probably been the biggest challenge of being a musician\u2014knowing that I\u2019m standing out, that I have something to say and something to contribute to the work, but that I\u2019m not doing it in the traditional sense."},{"question":"Can you tell me more about your dad? How the hell did he end up in Kansas from Sweden?","answer":"It\u2019s an insane story. My dad wanted to be an exchange student. He grew up on a farm in Sweden\u2014a small town, crazy small town. They were like, \u2018Where do you want to go?\u2019 He said, \u2018Send me somewhere with snow because I like to ski\u2019. So they sent him to Utah, and that\u2019s where my mum mainly grew up. They met in high school in Utah, and then my mum and my dad fell in love and were high school sweethearts.\r\n\r\nMy dad had given my mum his ring before he had to go back to Sweden because his student visa was about to expire. After he left, there was an argument between my mum and her mum. Basically, she ended up forcing my mum to give back his ring and write a letter saying, \u2018I never want to speak to you again. And, by the way, I\u2019m pregnant with your child\u2019."}]},{"acf_fc_layout":"video_autoplay","image_size":"full","video_url":"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/progressive_redirect\/playback\/1085981471\/rendition\/2160p\/file.mp4?loc=external&log_user=0&signature=f37f8d246341fff54f4e2242116948708c807ebfb872e2476721b3fe26bc471b","video_caption":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"interview","interview":[{"question":"Wait, your mum is reluctantly writing this letter?","answer":"Reluctantly, heartbroken\u2014just to get her mum off her back. So then my mum had my brother her senior year of high school."},{"question":"Your brother\u2019s older?","answer":"Yeah, eight years older than me. For five years, my dad was back in Sweden. That\u2019s when he would go clubbing. He was in his early 20s. I don\u2019t know super specifics, but I know it was pretty on-the-nose house music. It wasn\u2019t jungle or anything like that. It was still late \u201880s clubbing, so it was the beginning of house. Anyways, years go by. My mum sent a letter to my dad being like, \u2018Where are you?\u2019 He said, \u2018You said not to talk to you\u2019. And she\u2019s like, \u2018Well, I want to see you\u2019. He\u2019s like, \u2018That\u2019s great timing because I\u2019m going to see my uncle in the States soon, so I\u2019ll come see you and our son\u2019. Then my dad got in this crazy car wreck and escaped death\u2014he rolled his car three times. He took that as a sign: I just need to go and be with my family.

Most people think my name is Deaton, that I\u2019m just that guy, but the Deaton world consists of every member of my family. There\u2019s four characters: There\u2019s Deaton, then there\u2019s Angela, Korbin, and Bobby. Deaton represents my mum, the aspiring R&B musician. My first album, BB<\/em>, was dedicated to her. My initials are ANGL, so Angela is my character, represented by my BO Y<\/em> album. Korbin is the older brother; he\u2019s really into emo. SID THE KID<\/em> was my ode to him. And Bobby is my dad, an alien who crash lands in Deaton\u2019s room and starts a rave. That\u2019s my new album coming out.
