How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
I'm involved in many other music products. Music has just always been part of my life. I started out as a singer-songwriter, making songs on my piano and finding the right melodies to go along with it. I was mostly influenced by pop artists. I started performing with my own songs and never stopped.
Later on in life, I discovered the pleasures of electronic music and learned how to self produce songs with just my computer. The possibilities of electronic music openend up a whole new world. I could now incorporate my pop melodies and chords into these fresh electronic beats. I'm still learning every day. I think no matter the genre, it all starts with a good pop melody and you just have to take it from there.
What´s new right now?
I'm finishing up my EP. You can listen to those songs on Soundcloud already. Right now, I'm thinking about putting in some more songs with some vocal parts in it. Up until now, I've kept the The Great Now songs instrumental. But recently I've been adding some vocals to some new electronic songs I've mad and it sure feels good. So who knows?
