You must have ended up here from a link on either one of the forums or from my website.. and I hope its because you want to hear what I've got to offer.. Enjoy!Band/artist history
I was introduced to electronic music when my friend would come back from summer trips to Europe and I'd check out what sorts of music he had.. I started promoting for raves and parties in 2000, shortly after I got my first set of table. However, I didn't really get serious about DJ'ing until early 2001, so I guess I've been doing this for 2 years. As far as production, I just completed my first production and am currently accepting feedback on how its goin.Have you performed in front of an audience?I am a DJ, but I don't spin my own work... YET!
Your musical influences
I love percussion, although my track (itsumo) doesn't really reflect, I've got plans for a more tribal/progressive/tekHouse-ish tune where I can go into more depth with that. I grew up listening to all music like rock, jazz, alternative, oldschool jams, punk, oldies, hiphop, rap and even swingin' big band tunes! its ALL good..What equipment do you use?
i currently have technics TT's and a Stanton Dual CD deck, a gemini 1600W amp w/ some big speakers.. for production, its all software, Reason, Acid, Abelton Live, Magix, Cubase, its all you need.. and FruityLoops Studio, now a lot of people dog it, but I think its just that they don't give it a chance.. I used to think it was a program for people that didn't know what they are doing, but especailly with the new FLStudio4, its very good at handling a lot of work and I think its great because it allows newbies (that might be deterred by more heavy duty applications like Reason) to have a chance to get in the game.Anything else?
This is mostly a statement for the electronic music artists, please don't let the program control your thoughts/ideas/opinions about the music because then you let the program control you. YOU control the program, so if someone says they are using FruityLoops or something else that might not be considered "professional software" like Steinberg or Propellerheads, don't just assume that they are creating an amateur production. I give props to companies that make sophisticated software but with really great interfaces because there is soo much talent out there that doesnt' get its chance because some people just aren't as computer savvy.
