Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
My name is Aaron Soletare and I am 17 years old. I started music production back in 2013 with my first track "Asian Piano". First I wanted to create beats, so others can rap or sing on them. But I quickly moved over to Electronic. It was not easy as I thought, because I basically listen to every electronic genre, so I tried different things, but never mastered one. That is where Cinematic comes. Over the past 3 years, it started to grow on me and literally every one of my tracks contains now cinematic elements, if not whole parts. So, I am actually an Electronic and Cinematic producer. Anyway, I have no main electronic genre (currently Future Bass), so there will always be variation!
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
I started with music, because of the German beat producer "KsTBeats". Therefore I started with beats. But in late 2013 I discovered Dubstep and quickly after that the Canadian music label Monstercat. So, I did not have one specific artist as an influence, but actually up to 20. So I tried Dubstep by myself, which just ended in a chaos. First in late 2014 I was able to produce an solid Drumstep track named "Solutions". At that point I moved forward. But I gained more and more interest in Cinematic / Orchestral; mostly because of "Varien" (an cinematic/electronic Artist at Monstercat), so I also added more cinematic elements to my tracks. Today I mainly listen to epic cinematic or heavy tracks by Hans Zimmer, Two Steps From Hell and many Monstercat artists!
What´s new right now?
There is a VIP of my Acoustic Melodic Dubstep track "Beyond the Horizon" coming at 4th December 2017 as an Acoustic Future Bass version. I also planned to release my 19 tracks from 2013 (so my very first tracks) on every platform. In 2018 I planned an LP with very heavy / cinematic tracks plus my own vocals and by a friend. That is all for now!
