We spent almost a month to make and perfect this song. I feel honored to be able to write the lyrics and produce the music on this issue. May their souls rest in peace and please DONATE! A dollar that you donate might save a life!

Hip Hop General

One man band aka music production (been mostly doing beat making but one day hopefully things will be different!)
Band/artist history
Started producing almost two years ago (March 2009). Just kept on doing random stuff and sharing those painful sounds with my friends. Eventually, got a grasp of the software and hiphop. Figured out what chord means, what scale is, etc. etc. just by doing it (BEST part about music..the process more than the end product. Really, it's like a statue..u don't know what you are going to make this big old stone into..but you keep on working on it until it reflects you or even overwhelm you). Summer 2009: Stayed home and made music day/night. What a summer that was! Making music has an exponential curve. Once you figure it out, rest is just a journey you don't wanna miss! Nothing TASTES sweeter to me than a RICH and QUALITY Piano/Violin melody or sound. As weird as it might sound, music sometimes SAYS stuffs to me. Music is all about imagination and creation of something out of nothingness. Even now, when I hear some of my old stuff, I literally feel like I am back to that day when I made that particular tune and at times I even had goosebumps!
Have you performed in front of an audience?
People will throw rotten tomatoes at me, so NEVER! But my most favorite thing to do is to just sit back and improvise on piano. I don't usually record improvs (since I usually have to go to a piano room to just keep on randomly playing improv tunes/melodies. Yes, I do not have a midi keyboard so, my laptop keyboard replaces the midi keyboard's function as much as possible (which isn't a whole lot haha))
Your musical influences
DJ Tiesto haha. no one else really, well does youtube beatmakers count? haha. They are not famous, but I LOVE Deem01, NGB001, Streetworkmusic..their beats..since they have this amazing violin/string work going along (and needless to say, piano and strings are what keeps me making music). Recently, I listened to more hiphop (lupe is THE man!) But of course, I listen to literally anything except thrash metal. I do hiphop mostly since it's easier to make them without a midi keyboard..if I had a midi keyboard..i'd be definitely doing more different experimental stuff!
What equipment do you use?
Fruity Loops studio only. Reason why I don't use a better audio work station? Coz, others require a midi keyboard. I don't have one (long story). Plus, FL Studio just serves my purpose. :D
Anything else?
Currently music on hold. If you want to know more, then ask. Multitude of reasons. Reevaluating my passion for music by taking a step back. Oh also, Congrats...for getting all the way down here. You are either procrastinating like me or have no life haha jk. But thanks a lot for reading. means a lot. If you have ANY questions about a particular tune or why i made it, what was I thinking to make something so stupid or whatever really...just ASK. -Peace.
