- Musical Style
- My electronic style of music is geared toward Ambient/Atmospheric/Lo-Fi sound mixed with a lot of other stuff... just basically anything I make I always try to take the listener to another place.
- Musical Background
- I've been playing piano since age 6
- Started making music
- Started scribbling notes around 6 as well but didn't start writing actual music till about a year or so after that.
- On Audiotool
- My brother saw Audiotool on the Chrome app store or something like 3 years ago and thought it looked cool, I looked at it and I thought it was pretty cool.
- Message to the community
- I think Audiotool is the perfect place to have fun and let your creativity run wild, and I've found there are so many things you can do with electronic music that you can't with the classical approach to writing music for instruments and stuff. When you're writing electronic music I would advise you to listen to lots of different electronic artists and also listen to classical music. Listening to electronic music really helps me find inspiration for different sounds I could make, different textures and stuff, and the classical music helps me with the actual compositional technique; I try to get into the composers head and wonder what they were thinking, why they are doing what they are doing with the music. Just listen and learn from what is out there, keep doing it until you get better and above all have fun. :)
