Story

Music. That is my one true passion. It always has been. I’ve been mixing, messing around, and making some sort of music (noise?)as far back as I can remember. When I was 18 years old, I got a cheap set of decks, a junk mixer, and some hand me down vinyl. That’s when I started rapping. That’s all I really did for quite some time. Years, and years passed. Technology became affordable. Allowing me to create any, and everything I could dream up. For the past 7 or 8 years, I’ve been working on making and mixing my own beats, teaching myself how to operate these DAW programs, and attempting to learn some music theory. I don’t like sticking to hip hop/rap. So I don’t. Even though my singing isn’t that great, I really enjoy the creative process. I just live music. Everything on this page was thought of, thrown out at least once,(I hate all my projects) hesitatingly brought back, then eventually created, recorded, and performed and mixed by me. Including the videos and album art. I hope you can enjoy some of the work I’ve shared. If not, I’ll keep trying. I’m always working on new material. Thanks for taking the time to get to know a bit about me.

Life. Feelings. Both good and bad. Everyday situations.

I don’t have the slightest. I work on improving my craft. If everyone did that, we’d all inspire each other.
