I'm an Indiana based bass music producer. I started producing roughly 7 years ago, (my cousin s/o Tony) put me on to fruityloops and the rest is history. When i first began i was listening to artists such as aphex twinn, royksopp, kid cudi, MGMT etc. I tried to mimic the sounds and song structure of the producers of the tunes i liked and that in tern gave my an idea of how to produce. After a couple years of going back and forth with honing my edm sound i was intrigued by the southern trap 808 themed artists guccimane or his producers style if you will so i began figuring out what went into making trap. Then one day it happen, i was at this point of feeling like "this is cool and all but i need the next big genre of music to come along". No later than that feeling came i heard deadmou5's song "move for me" i was in complete awe of this new found genre called dubstep. I couldn't get enough, I would get on youtube and keep finding more and more Heavier drops. That's when i began to listen to artists such as Datsik,cragga,Mt Eden, 12th planet etc. So not long after finding the underground dubstep scene. Skrillex came out of nowhere and dropped the infamous Scary monsters and nice sprites. This was a whole other level of Bending basses and i was determined to figure out how to manipulate NI massive. I continued practicing my craft as often as i could just trying to find my own sound and what not. Years passed and i had grown kind of tired of the brostep trash that dubstep had became so off to another genre. I was hunting around and found this track by Gillepsy called " I think". Once again i found myself blown away by the production of what is known as future bass. It put me in the mindset of the 90's R&B my parents forced upon me as a child. So after 7 years or so of producing i have a grasp on my own style so feel free to stop by my soundcloud and checkout all you want.
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
I think i more than covered this question in the previous response.
What´s new right now?
I'm currently speaking with the AR rep for ShiftAxis Records on possibly releasing my new track entitled "Genetic Codes". It's has a bit of everything in it. Futurebass melodies, 175bpm breakbeats and a melodic dubstep drop.
