Please introduce yourself real quick. Tell our audience about your background and how you go into doing what you´re doing right now.
Yooo I'm Ohsan, 22 y/o, an aspiring music producer from Singapore! It all started when I was 14, I stumble upon swedish house mafia on youtube and it made me really curious on how they made their songs especially "greyhound" and "one". From there I started experimenting with electro house, dirty dutch and deep house. And then the huge change in the edm world where trap was the in thing (or did I live under a rock because I didn't know about trap?… I will never know ?). During the transition I found slander remix of "above and beyond – love is not enough" on soundcloud which made me rethink as a music producer. Why did I settle for a genre when I actually love other genres in the music spectrum? This is where I started to mess around with other genres! I'm experimenting with lo-fi hip hop, future bass & trap at the moment. Cheers to a new year and may all of yall bless with good vibes! ???
Please tell our audience what projects have you been working on in the last years?
I've started to work on 808s more then ever. I fell in love with trap, future bass and making beats ever since that transition. For sure I'll be sticking to the 808s for the long run and I don't have any plans to make anything else other than loving my 808s!!!
What are you currently working on? Do you accept clients and and what kind of projects/work fits your profile?
I'm currently working on a project right now with a local rapper, I can't give a proper date on the release but I can assure that the project is in the works as of now. He goes by the name Habimoya, do check out his newly released mv here!

There's actually a ton of local acts brewing, I do look forward in collaborating with them as I believe in a quote "If you want to go fast you go alone, If you want to go far go together". Last but not least, thank you very much TRAXX24 for this opportunity!!! ??????
