Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Started writing songs when I was 11... once I got to high school I taught myself how to record and mix songs. Once I graduated high school, I started getting into producing really heavy. Started producing for big local acts in Cleveland. I got nominated for a couple "Producer of the Year" awards from various different award shows, and ended up winning 2 so far.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
yes, i have performed and thrown many shows in Cleveland... i love it... we throw a charity show every December called "Hip-Hop Gives Back". We donate 100% of the money/ toys to Rainbow Babies and Children. The 1st year we threw the show we had DJ Drama there, and I actually won a "Hearts of Hope Award" for giving back to children.
Your musical influences
Was a huge Neptunes fan... I "grew up" on 90s hip-hop, a lot of Timbaland influence. Love J.Dilla, Kanye West, Ratatat... any type of "out of the box" type shit is what I find really dope.
What equipment do you use?
Triton Le and ACID pro 4
