You have reached the old website of the legendary DJ XSoundz. All of these beats are 100% written, generated and produced by DJ XSoundz. The later half of this website is dedicated to OREKEL (same person as djxsoundz) but a different style, of synth-influence rock/pop.
Why this name?
DJXSOUNDZ - I was the only DJ at XSoundz Recording Studios. OREKEL - I was sitting in English class one day looking at how the dictionary spelled out oracle mneonically - it looked cool. As I changed styles from hip hop beats to my new unique style, I changed names.
Do you play live?
I play live every once in a while. I am currently working on a live set which I will perform when my new CD comes out.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I haven't bought a CD in two years, and I know many others are the same! Also I've been exposed to much more original content on the internet I wouldn't have heard if I only listened to the radio.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Sure.
Band History:
Three years ago I started a little studio in my house to record a japanese rapper. Later that year, we aquired a morocian singer. I produced thier music, wrote the beats and such and co-wrote lyrics for them. Some time about two years later, we all split up. For a few months, I continued to churn out Hip Hop beats. During this time, I started listening to more Pink Floyd which set me in a different path. As I also began to sing, I started making my own new music. Since then, my musical style is evolving.
Your influences?
A lot of the hip hop beats on this website were influced by Old Dr. Dre, Jay-Z and Eminem material as well as some of the best beats on Acidplant.com and mp3.com. The newer portion of this site is influenced heavily by Pink Floyd and also by Nirvana and Evanasence.
Favorite spot?
my bedroom so i can record my cd
Equipment used:
Most of the instrumental parts of my songs are dominated by the Korg microKORG, EMU Pk-6 and PX7 as well as a Roland D2 Groovebox. I use other synths and keyboards from time to time.
Anything else...?
Just three weeks ago, my promo album "Just Another Promo" was released to promote "Just Another Life" which I'm currently finishing and planning to release in December of this year. So far, my growing fans as well as certian radio stations have loved "Just Another Promo".
