Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
Hey, Im Growlbittz. Im a solo artist (which means I do everything from music, mixing, mastering, advertisement, and artwork for my tracks on my own from scratch). Im only 17. People keep saying im too young, but I say; "you're never too young to love EDM."
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
When I was twelve i'd listen to Monstercat (specifically One for All, All for One by Virtual Riot & Razihel). I was hooked with the hardcore, melodic style of dubstep. But then my friends told me to listen to Skrillex. I listened to First of The Year, and then my mind opened a doorway to the truth; THERES MORE TO EDM THAN JUST DUBSTEP. I became a die-hard Skrillex fan to this day. Right now, I don't really have any influences, but, Skrillex will still remain to inspire me. My style has also changed from just oldschool mixed with modern dubstep, to more experimental music. Most people make music for work and jus treat it as work. For me, its fun and basically my life. Id never find music boring or just work for money. If one day I become the next Virtual Riot and get money, then, good for me, But I really just make music for fun. I find thats what most artists lack nowadays.
What´s new right now?
I recently posted a track called In The Rain that I recommend you guys take a listen to in the link bellow. Its inspired by backround game music, with a lo-fi chiptune feel, and some spacy, dreamy aspects. I dont get the basic concept of finding gigs and going on TOUR yet. I don't really have a team… Or anyone to help me for that matter. My audience doesn't need to do anything but listen to some of my tracks to get my musical style and mind. Some feedback would make my career. I really need a team (I dont get how to make one) but if anyone wants to volunteer, i'd be more than happy to add you to my amateur team if that's how it works.

Some tracks don't need to be perfect. Remember; the atmosphere and impression of a track overpowers it's over-all quality. Its more about rhythm than professionalism.
