One guy, one keyboard, one computer, music skills, perfect pitch, a head full of ideas and impromptu luck while knob-tweaking
Hi y'all! My name's Gene Boo, a Singaporean-born Malaysian, living in Belgium... it all began when I was a kid, playing classical piano - after which I decided to quit the textbook stuff and began composing on-the-fly impromptu jazz. I moved to Beijing, China in 97, and got into the hip hop groove - so I began freestyle mcin' to Wu-Tang instrumentals in a club. I went thereafter to Bremen, Germany to do an MBA where I met up with my mates who introduced me to the art of using electronic equipment to make music. Equipped with an AKAI MPC 2000, Sirius keyboard, Rave-o-lution 309, a Pentium II pc with Cubase and Fruityloops installed, all hooked up to a Digitech FX machine, which was in turn hooked up to a multitrack recorder, my mates Lars, Stephan and Thorsten began to innovate. I was hence introduced to the world of electronica - a broad term... we created minimal progressive house, dnb, breakbeats, hip hop... etc. but as fate has it, I moved to Belgium... so now I work on my own music as a hobby - focusing a lot on my jazz and hip hop influences to make lounge, ambient, jazz, house, dnb and experimental stuff.
