Independent beat maker for now. Sound production and recording educationally
Why this name?
jLIT was always a nick name and I"ve always had my ear to the streets and spot the soon to be or never heard of artists and spread their work around via mixtapes I made of compilations of current hits from various artists. I wouldn't call myself a DJ, but give me a crowd and I'll take care of the rest
Do you play live?
Working on producing moreso then personal fame... The beats & emotions passed through sound waves are what keep me at it day in and day out.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Catch 22. Both positive and negative effects, but zero sum game when it comes to a RIGHT answer, I'm all for digital formats and use them myself and depend upon formats such as MP3 to get my ideas into a current project session or just out of my head the way I want.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Sure but I dont plan to even join any labels until I feel satisfaction for the instrumentals I've been working on. Unfortunately I'm hellla tedious with my shit, nothing ever is done, just up to par or enough for me to be proud of.
Your influences?
Bay Area Hip Hop, All types of music, classical, Rage Against The Machine, lots of Drum N Bass and the list goes on of inspirations, I haven't quite grasped my style yet, but its a touch of Zapp & Roger mixed with some too short with an X-Raided gangster boogie.
Favorite spot?
ThE Biggity Bay Area
Equipment used:
MIDI Keyboard, Pro Tools, Reason, mBOX, Logic Pro 7, SSL or NEVE console when school project involved.
Anything else...?
These are not gonna follow your usual song structure, I just try to make it all flow to get that head bobbin before you realize it. Thats when you know you got a keeper.
