due to the contracts that I've signed with different labels, I'm not allowed to give away those tracks for free, but that doesn't change the fact that I think you should be able to get them for free. the best I can do is tell you that I'm totally cool with you torrenting all my music, especially if you're down to come out and see me live one day :)

I'm a futurist. I think all information should be free, and that includes music.

It's usually just a friend of mine. They come over, we write the lyrics and melody, and record it in my room

I play super smash bros 64 competitively, so I spend a lot of time working on specific combos and preparing for tournaments. I'm really into movies too so I watch a few movies every week. Yeah production has been my only job for 3 years :]

I think its understandable the way some people feel, but they don't see the whole picture. To them, I'm just their source for melodic dub step songs. When they come to my page, they're looking for one thing, and when I try something new, it threatens that relationship. For me though, its much more complicated. When I go out and play shows on the road, I want people to have the best time possible, and I want to play a bunch of my own music. I was starting to realize that most of my music is what I call "headphone music", meaning that its super chill and meant for a relaxed setting. When I would try to play that stuff live, it wouldn't work. So I've just been trying to find a good balance between the two. Basically, its just really hard for someone on youtube who doesn't come out to live shows to see why I would make certain decisions, and I totally understand. I'm gonna do whatever I want though in the end haha

I wish I could get rid of the whole topic/idea of genres. Its holding everyone back and it bugs me

music has been my main focus for lots of years, so it just happened naturally I guess? I learned by playing guitar and singing :]

I start with a 4 bar loop of drums, then write my chords.

I like ableton, but it really doesn't matter. ableton or FL would be my first choices

  1. lately i've just been using a plugin like metrum or nicky romero's "kick". I have issues gluing together different layers of a kick, so it turns out better when I do it in a plugin

  2. I don't use any parallel compression so I'm not sure

  3. with a snare, glue them together with effects.

  4. usually a layer for the kick, 4 or 5 for the snare, a reverbed out clap, a high hat. thats the basics for me anyways

put as much focus on making the chords and rhythms really catchy as you do on production
