Trix of the Trade Ent
I'm one of the founders, the manager, and producer for Trix of the Trade Entertainment. I have a strong background in music theory, composition, and I am a trained classical pianist of 16 years. I'm at the 20 year old mark, don't let the age fool you, it's only a number. That has nothing to do with the music. Work with me in the studio and you'll see how capable I really am.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Everywhere and anywhere: 2232 MLK, Madrone, coffee shops, etc.
Your musical influences
Mrs. Lily Melendrez (music teacher), my brother Ferdinand started me on guitar, my sister Kathryn started me off in singin, Mike Shinoda, Neptunes, Timbaland, Mr. West, No Use For A Name, Smashing Pumpkins, Atmosphere, Kweli, Mos, Stevie Wonder, Jamie Foxx, Chopin, all those breaks that I listen to..there's too many.
What equipment do you use?
My weapon of choice is the Yamaha Motif ES 8. I learned off of that..and since I'm a pianist..I prefer working off a keyboard more than anything.
Anything else?
ALL MY BEATS ARE COMPOSED..and if I ever sample (which is hardly never) I'll replay it.
