Interview
My name is Vincent and I am 16 years old. I've been on here for like 2 years.
- About VIOK:
- My name is Vincent and I am 16 years old. I can play the piano, guitar and ukulele. I've been on here for like 2 years maybe a little more now. When I first started it was actually for school like they made me use it in music class, it was pretty fun so I kept using it when I got out of the class. I used to make music at school all the time because I never talked to anyone and I got bullied like a lot. Looking back on it now is just funny, because it doesn't even matter anymore. I got out of special ed and now I'm just a normal basic kid who likes making dubstep.
- Which artist has had the most influence on you (on and/or outside Audiotool)?
- The person that inspired me to even make music would be Skrillex, his best/iconic song for me would be easily "Scary Monsters And Nice Sprites".
- Who would you like to work/collaborate with on and outside Audiotool, and why?
- If it would be anybody it would just have to be Virtual Riot — who wouldn't want to collab with that guy.
- Which film/game would you like to produce the score for or contribute a song to?
- I always wanted to sound design a fighting scene in an anime. One of the best ones is from Sword Art Online where they have these crazy glitch effects while they're fighting.
- Have you ever had a writer's block? If so, how did you deal with it and what do you recommend to your colleagues?
- I go through writer's block. I deal it with by making moans into basses and I know that sounds weird but just sound designing differently can get you out of the "rut". Honestly just have fun while making music, when I try hard and not having fun it doesn't turn out good and then I get writer's block.
- What has helped you the most on Audiotool to improve and widen your musical horizon?
- Honestly there are so many. Almost every Bass Music producer helped me: AstroLizard, Client, Siren, etc. There are so many I can't even remember all of them.
- What do you like most about Audiotool? Is there anything you would like to suggest?
- The most I like about this website is that it's free and can be used on literally anything. But I would suggest an actual downloadable DAW so it doesn't lag as much. I think AT has great potential.
- Your message to the community:
- Whoever makes Dubstep is hot, no question about it.
