Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Originaly known as Crazy One, Andres Ojeda began the documentation of his rhyme sessions. Time progressed and the crazy one became Tha Hustle. Working with producer Heavy Lines(Check out on soundclick)the due began what is now known as MicroBuildCrew mbpro and dropped the album "HEAVYLINES". Soon after "HEAVYLINES" release Andres Ojeda decided to put out a solo project under the Rythmatik Records Label. Thus the creation of Rythmatik. The solo project was titled "BEATS N RHYMES" the second CD release for Andres Ojeda. Currently Rythmatik is working on a third CD current name unkown, but guaranteed to be smashing!
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Playing live is a necessity in the hip hop industry. Although internet and other sources help market your music, performing live is still the best way to be heard, and build a name for yourself. My stomping grounds are the North West states. You might catch me doing a show in Portland, Oregon or somewhere in the Washington state. No where specific but I get around no doubt you might catch me with my DJ, Opter Metrix check his shit out on soundclick also.
