I'm a producer/singer/song-writer who plans on making music my career. There's no other option for me in my lifetime. I was put here for music lol.
I play trombone, guitar, sing, and a little bit of keyboard.
I switched over to Ableton about a year ago. I'm also very familiar with Fl Studio. And I know my way around Reaper.
I use midi keyboards to run multiple instruments through Ableton. I have a couple of performance mics and guitars that I run through a Focusrite Interface.
Lots of Frank Ocean, Thundercat, some Stevie Wonder and mixes of Bedroom pop/ indie.
Songs in the Key of Life, Trilogy, 4 Your Eyez Only, Atomic Basie, Blond, Chanel Orange, and Wolf.
Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Bill Withers, Selena, Los Bukis/Marco Antonio Solis, The Weeknd, Frank Ocean, Daniel Ceasar, Kali Uchis, Mac Demarco, Cuco, and Victor Internet.
I used to model my music after bedroom pop artist, now there's an unorthodox feel to my music. I love to use synthesizers so Mac Demarco and Cuco, while at the same time I love using samples to make a whole new sound like Frank Ocean.
Unfortunately, I'm currently working in retail and most likely will stay in retail until I can work towards my goals.
