Scrim: I’m Scrim. 

Ruby: We’re $uicideboy$. 

Scrim: Come spend 24 hours with us in New Orleans. 

Kristin Robinson: Where do you guys have us today? 

Scrim: This is my parents crib. This is where it all started. That’s the studio, aka the shed. 

Can you tell me a little bit about starting here? What was the original setup like?

Ruby: The futon was right here. That was his computer station here.

Scrim: Right. We had a glittery chair that isn’t here anymore, but it was really cute. 

Ruby: We had black lights in here and s–t. I haven’t been in here in years bro. 

Scrim: I know. 

Ruby: I can’t believe you got the AC put in here and everything.

Scrim: Look, I still got the email list. 

Ruby: No sh–. 

Scrim: That was my email list when I was just producing and I would just spam beats, to everybody’s email you know? 

Ruby: This was originally a hair studio that his mom would cut hair and dye hair and stuff, and then we took it over and made it a studio.

Scrim: Started out DJing when I was like 12. Probably around 19, I got into producing.

Ruby: I guess when I was like seven, I played violin. My mom signed me up for lessons, and- 

Scrim: I remember that. 

Ruby: I hated that, and I quit, and then I picked up marching snare, and then the drum kid, and I guess I started taking it seriously when I was, like 14, we linked up in like 2013 and the rest is history.
