Solemn 99
Solemn 99, its not just a name, its a revolution. Haha naw, really my music is made with 2 numark TT's, my PC, a Roland 606 (Hopefully) and crate upon crate of untouched samples. Hopefully soon i start working with a band and get some sounds where I can dictate how it sounds. My influences come from man different places, as a listener I am into pretty much anything you've heard, and even more that you haven't. The Underground Hip Hop scene has opened the door for acts such as myself and people i look up to, RJD2 and DJ Shadow to create experimental hiphop. Listening to their music, as well as mine, you can hear their influences, from funk to soul to rock and even reggae, and hip hop is such an amazing artform because it CAN bring all of this music together. Like I said, much love to D2 and Shadow, for inspiring me and opening the door, keep doing what you're doing and so will I.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Started working on instrumentals about a year or so ago but really got into it in October and November of this year. Look for better things in the future as I'm truly only just starting.
