I'm a turntablist/vinyl enthusiast who also makes sample-based beats. I love real Hip-Hop. You won't find any radio-sounding ish here.
Why this name?
I'm shy...
Do you play live?
Sometimes I perform at school.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet makes it easier for independent artists to get their stuff out there and proliferate.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Not yet. I'm too young. Maybe after I finish high school and get a degree.
Band History:
I've been doing music for about 3 years. I started out DJing and learning to scratch, and now I am venturing into beat production. It really all began when I heard this thing called Hip-Hop, and it changed my life.
