Describe your music for unfamiliar listeners

 

My music is cinematic, emotionally raw, sonically rich, and unapologetically me. 

 

Describe your creative process

 

My creative process is extremely spontaneous. When I hear the beat and I already know what I’m going to say? That’s the sweet spot for me

 

Your album, “DIEVAS” is really sick. What went into making it? Do you have a favorite song on it?

 

Dievas was a long creative process as an artist and a mixing engineer. As my third project I felt like it really needed to stand out. I spent about a year making songs and finding the right mix. My favorite song off the album now is red eyes, but originally it was iBEAM

 

How’d you first get into making music?

 

My first introduction to music was playing in the school band starting in 2nd great , but I’ve been around music my entire life my dad is a huge music nerd, and my parents have been taking me to music festivals since before I could remember.

 

Where do you find the inspiration to create music?

 

I try to find inspiration in my everyday life, and past experiences. I’m big on living in the moment, so when inspiration strikes I take advantage.

​

What have you been working on lately? Any new music soon?

 

I just produced an EP for my friend BaeAK, #BaeLovesYou3, and I recently finished up my 4th project coming out at the end of the summer. I also have a bunch of singles recorded in the vault.

​

Other than music, what else have you been up to?

 

I’ve been grinding Skyrim, playing a mage thief build. I’ve been biking around a lot, and spending time in nature.
