Nighttime, Jazzy, Ambient Electronica. i make my music in my home studio, with many different things. alot (and sometimes all) of what the song is made up of is made on the computer.
Why this name?
These are my initials, but as a good amount of you people who like electronic know, EDM is also the initials for "Electronic Dance Music". Though even I didn't knwo that until later on. And I don't think most of my music fits into that catagory anyway.
Do you play live?
no. it would be impossible. I may want to some day but the most important thing to me right now is making the music, not performing them.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Well if youre music is good enough you can get alot of exposure. And if it isnt every once in a while someone will check out a song , and think "thats not very good" and they wont check you out again. I think that may happen to me often, but I think im getting better at what I do.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
not a mainstream label but id love to get signed. I guess you can consider Warp Records to be my dream label to get signed to.
Band History:
ive been making music for the last 3 years. At the beginning, my music wasnt completely electronic and focus on jazz, ambience and samples so much as it is lately. I think I'm finally finding a sound.
Your influences?
too many to name. i enjoy so many kinds of music. I also get very influenced by films as well and you can definatly hear it in my music. anything from older jazz, progressive rock (well some) to avant-garde/experimental and especially electronica.
Favorite spot?
i dont know. I don't really have one.
Equipment used:
i use fruityloops for most drum patterns synths and samples. i have a fender jazz bass, an audio technica dj mixer, a numark turntable (which i got rid of), a shure mic and an old crappy organ i found in my closet. Half of these things I dont use anymore.
Anything else...?
please tell me what you think. id really appreciate it. thanks. I would also appreciate it if you would visit my web page. Besides making music, I make films, paint and do photography as well. The web page has more information and media of these things.
