How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

I didn't do that yet, but I think it's a transcendental moment that fulfill our soul

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

That's a lot of musicians which follows the industry flow, because brings to them more visibility and acceptance from public in general, but this kinda deviates the artist from his or her art, he or she become limited by this boundaries of market. I think that artists could stand more for his or hers arts, their own way to make music to show this unique peace to the world and spread it!

What do you think of Drooble?

What frustrates you most as a musician?

When you start to produce, in general you don't have enough money to invest on your gear, so it is hard to get even the basics to support your beginning.

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

By sharing and commenting artists works, leaving my opinion on their work and stuff

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

To a larger audience, the artist need to have a good network and marketing to put it there. Sometimes, the larger audience don't like too different music style, in this way for you to spread your own style it is hard to get acceptance from a larger audience. But I think if you keep going and channeling you energy on it, you get there!
