I'm currently:
*18 (and not getting any younger :/)
*PLanning to major in Computer Science, but also do music
*Plan to go into Game Design
*Started dabbling in music production over the summer, and now it's become one of the few thing I do consistently nowadays on a daily basis.
*Very mellow, chilled-out kind of guy, especially in person.
I play Alto and Baritone Saxophone, and an learning piano right now. Best thing ever :)
Ableton Live 9 (working on getting the full version)
Planning to get:
*M-Audio Oxygen 61 MK4
*Presonus Eris E5s or E4.5 Monitors
*Some type of audio interface for playback
*Sennheiser HD280 Headphones
Listening to Tekken 4 Soundtrack: Authentic Sky. Not just cause it's an awesome game, but also because it's a good soundboard for comparison, in terms of mellowness.
*Magna Carta Holy Grail (Jay-Z)
*Ghettoville (Actress)
*Doris (Earl Sweatshirt)
*Everything by Noisia. EVERYTHING, I tell you.
Some of my favorite artists include Clams Casino, Arca, Actress (the British music act,) Flying Lotus, most of any orchestra band, alot of experimental/ambient/soundscape stuff, etc.
Experimental/Ambient. It depends on the time of day, really.
Listen to it. Go to school. Sleep. Play Xbox. Imagine 18-year old activities, more or less.
