Read the Mellow:Brain. Interview below and share it on social media.
Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
Well, my name is Daniel Palomo aka Mellow:Brian, I'm from Colombia, Bogota and I'm 18 years old, I currently produce lofi hip hop tracks, boom bap and some other combination with influences from the music of the 90s. More than a month, released my first EP entitled PAPERS which I show several of the musical and cultural influences that I have.
I've been producing music since I was 14 years old, mostly EDM, but I went deep into hip hop music, thanks to my older brother.
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
My influences as I mentioned before is the hip hop of the 90s, artists like j dilla, dj premier, naughty by nature, wu tang clan, common, big pun and more, but also mc and colombian beatmeakers such as crudo means raw, frank jhonson, the arkeologo and also as not, beatmakers of the style that I do, like jinsang, nymano, juan RIOS, choose who, 20syl and more.
Before as I said also produced more than all EDM but I was captivated by the hip hop scene and decided to go there.
What´s new right now?
Now I'm working on some tracks that I'm going to release soon, as I mentioned a month ago, released my EP PAPERS that can be heard by souncloud:
