Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Got into using the computer to make beats fall '05.
Your musical influences
I love music...from rock to hip hop. Jazz to pop.
What equipment do you use?
For my early beats I was using Fruity Loops 6 Demo, Fruity Loops 7, Fruity Loops 8, Cakewalk Music Creator 3, Nero Wave Editor, Magix Music Maker 16, Yamaha PSR-280 (just as midi controller for FL), Oxygen49 midi controller, Sound Blaster X Fi Fatality soundcard, Microsoft headset, SureThing CD Labeler 4, LightScribe burner. After taking a break for a few years starting in 2021 my son, aka deadwords, built me a new computer and I started using Studio One 5 Artist, PreSonus AudioBox USB96, and PreSonus M7 mic. In 2024 I purchased PreSonus ERIS 3.5 2nd Gen studio monitors and Studio One 7 Professional.
Anything else?
Trying to get heard. Need a beat holla at me. Need mixing holla at me. Wanna do a song...you get the picture.
