How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
My influences have changed a lot over the years, especially with genres like house and dubstep gaining popularity in the last 5 years or so. Initially i listened to mainly Drum and Bass artists such as Cookie Monster and Trolley Snatcha but the first song i heard was a tune called Oblivion from an artist called High Roller. After that all ive listened to since then is harsh sounding bass and i love it. More recently what made me want to get into making music are artists like Jauz, Curbi, Loge 21 and Malaa, they all make different sounds and i have taken inspiration from artists like these in order to try and make my own sound.
What´s new right now?
Right now i am currently working on some new tunes after a short break, which i used to try and improve in areas of producing i was falling down on, things like mixing and that sort of stuff. In the coming months though, i will be looking to start learning the basics of live sets and making mixes and by the end of the year i want to be in a place where i could do a live set eventually. But other than that im just learning as much as i can and trying to increase my fan base so that i can get some more feedback and support.
So you can follow on social media like twitter, instagram and i have a facebook page. Im open to messages from anyone and i will always appreciate any feedback or support given.
