Hi my name is Chimp, I make edm ranging from future bass, to riddim. I have been making music for a long time, I am working on my album "what's up" for release this month. I am also working on making a new group called "the masked strangers". I have been through a lot in my life but the most memorable is a time when I first can remember, my dad had a colection of guitars back in the day. One day I wanted to play one (I was 4) so I grabbed it and started playing. Next thing I remember was that I strings where broken and I was trying to hide it from my dad.
Please tell our audience what projects have you been working on in the last years?
In the last few months I have been working with numerous producers. The newest one is TVPPS, me and him are working on a riddim track called bass heads.
My most favorite genres to work in is dubstep, it is really fun it put together a drop and call it good for a night.
What are you currently working on? Do you accept clients and and what kind of projects/work fits your profile?
I am currently working on my album.
I love working with singer and rappers, so yes.
The work I do would be more for people looking to sing on a track, and I enjoy working with other artists.
