I absolutely love music. It saves my life every day! Without it, I could not be who I am today.
Why this name?
Well, it is my name, and it means "Full of Wisdom", which is also my band nickname.
Do you play live?
I do not play live. I only play for my family and friends when I feel like it. He he.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Oh, I believe the internet is the best way for musical composers to collaborate and communicate. I thank God for what the internet can provide for us audiophiles.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I would only do that if I knew it was the right thing to do. If they would only allow me to get the message I wanted across.
Band History:
Formerly, I was DJ Midnight of Hawaii. Then I became DJ Aura, between friends. And continuing on after that, I became Godknown, which I still do use to this day. But now, I would just like to use my name, because I feel all tributes should go to my name which my parents gave me. I am thankful to have this name, and to be who I am.
Your influences?
All classical composers are my musical influences, especially Hans Zimmer and Johann Sebastian Bach. The original video game music composers like Koji Kondo and others are also very inspirational. Probably the most helpful influences are other music composers like me who share their thoughts and their influences. My mother influenced me a lot to go into music, playing piano, and composing my own pieces. My piano teacher David Hicken has also inspired me a lot, because he is an excellent teacher and friend who guided me along music composition and other musical techniques. Most importantly though is God Whom I have in my life to thank.
Favorite spot?
Well, I love Colorado! I also like the nice parts of California, preferably the North side. I live in Hawaii, and my favorite city/town here would most likely be Kailua (K-Town).
Equipment used:
I pretty much use Propellerhead's Reason and Image-Line Fruity Loops XXL 7 for sequencing and mixing, and Adobe Audition/Soundbooth for mixing/mastering audio..
