What is music to you? What does it give you?

Music is an art form of communication. For some people, music can be a way to bring people together through this art form, and others use it to become inspired, self-motivated or looking for ways to improve their health and lifestyle. Music to me is a particular art form for my mind to be processed in patterns, experiences, and thoughts into a song, tune or project. It gives me a sense of how I perceive these tangible and intangible feelings or tools in life that allow me to express that moment in time. It could be friends, family members, peers, movements, events, issues, controversies, and many other subjects.

What is your music dream?

My dream is to perform to an audience--big and small crowds--in a sense that I give hope to people through the music I create and maybe even give back to people by fulfilling their dreams.

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

I would start with myself. If I know I can't make any changes for myself as a person, then it will never be possible to shape the world in any way.

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

I didn't have a favorite song or tune by any artist--I would enjoy different genres depending on what I am doing at the moment or if I'm bored and I switch to something new. When I was 7 years old, I looked up music and I found some posts about Gorillaz and start to follow their first album. I asked my sister if she could buy me their second album since I was super stoked about it after listening to the previews of Last Living Souls, Kids with Guns, O Green World, Dirty Harry, Feel Good, etc., on their interactive website.

What inspires you to make music?

Making music itself. I want to listen to my own creation.

What is the message you want to send with your music?

Become vulnerable, because if you don't, you allow yourself to be judged negatively. Be yourself and do whatever makes YOU happy.

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

I become somewhat anxious. Not due to stage fright, but how a new audience would react to a new sound. It's so quick to reading people's reactions, but what's scarier is that you don't know what they're thinking.

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

I get a lot of news feed from rap and pop artists nowadays. It's all about brawls, tapes, and personal relationships. What could be improved? I would like to see artists participate in charities, social movements for whatever cause they stand for or helping out their community.

What do you think of Drooble?

I just made an account--just exploring.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

When you want to go back and edit your tracks, your computer freezes, and you don't save the project on time whilst no possible action to revert to last project file backup can be made at the time of your unsaved project. Sad.

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

I'm not a true fan, if that makes sense. I just like to listen to different artists. I try my best to support my high school and college peers who have decided to join bands and become music artists themselves which I find really awesome.

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

More connection with whatever project or album they're working with e.g.: Lil Wayne's "Tha Carter V" album was stellar in its quality that all featured artists and Lil Wayne himself took the time for each individual track.
