Beat Nerd
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I started making beats towards the end of 2006. I stared with a laptop, Reason 3 and a X-Board 49. Back then I wasn't making "real" beats. It was mainly loops and drums. Of course as the saying goes "practice makes perfect" I worked on my beats pretty much on a daily basis. Today I've upgraded to better equipment but I my whole operation still revolves around Reason. I'm still learning and still working to perfect my craft.
