I'm 21, reside in Texas. I've been making beats for a little over a year, but it wasn't until recently that I inevitably began to get sucked in to the mixing and mastering world. I've learned so much about producing for these past 2 or 3 months, but still lack so much knowledge.
Drumset, trumpet and trombone.

Still in the developing process. I am creating a small budget home studio at the moment. This is what I have so far.

My musical influences come from rap music to jazz, rock, classical, soul, punk etc. Don't really have a specific genre of music I prefer. JUST GOOD MUSIC.
A little bit of everything, though recently I've been feeling more soul infused hip hop.
I graduated college and got a job as an entry level pipe designer at a refinery inspections company.
