Project with D.i.n Beats currently living in Portugal I met D.i.n Beats through YouTube as he also uploads his instrumentals for showcase and for sale on YouTube. He commented on one of my instrumental videos and that’s how we linked up and began to work together. Later on, he sent me a couple of instrumentals through Whatsapp for me to listen and provide feedback. In one of the instrumentals, he had a sample of himself humming a rap verse in French over the instrumental. I told him it was really cool and inquired whether he was a rapper too. He told me he wasn’t really sure if he wanted to be a rapper. I told him his rap skills were really good and encouraged him to hone his rap skills and work on becoming a rapper. I sent him some of my recorded …show more content…
I made him send the instrumental and others, he wanted us to work on through my email. Some months later, he sent me new beats and told me of his idea to release a compilation album featuring various artists around the world he has been working with. He sent me three instrumentals from which I should choose one to work on. I was in my room working on my school assignments when I received the instrumentals in my email. I liked the instrumentals so much that, immediately, I started listening to them, I began to create melodies and lyrics to the beat while I recorded myself on my phone. After doing that for some minutes, I listened to the results I produced and immediately sent them back to D.i.n Beats. He liked the melodies I did on all the instrumentals a lot. His response made me suggest I work on all the three instrumentals instead of picking one to work on, which he immediately agreed. Weeks later, I was done writing and recording to the instrumentals and I sent him raw mixed versions of the tracks for him to listen. He liked them a lot and offered to mix one of the tracks himself, as he said he has gained a lot of inspiration to make the track more beautiful. I
After the Prelude album, 2002 began a stale moment until he began putting together a project called Alchemy of Sound that later changed to DJversion666. He explained that he chose the name as he had been djing in an mostly open format I chose that name, as I had been djing for a few years up to now. He attributes most of his gain back into music to Exemia, whom has collaborated on remakes of his songs, such as “Goodbye World”. It was the beginning of having his music with the exception of instrumentals and “Future Gods”, on contemplation CDs. It resulted in him joining darkTunes Music Group when his album was completed and independently posted on Bandcamp. We asked him about upcoming endeavors since his new site was launched through Tangent D. Noir’s TheXFactory (a creative
As a co-writer and producer, Brown has worked to develop many of the artists we have come to know today. Performers such as, Rick Barry, Status Green, Corey Wagar, Jerzy Jung, Natalie Stovall, Alex Brumel, and Andrew Holtz have all come to know his commitment to songwriting quite well, with some gaining major momentum because of it. His long career has seen him go thru several major label recording deals and at least three distinct publishing deals. He has achieved song placements in TV and film, and working with great producers and mentors like Danny Kortchmar (Don Henley, James Taylor, Rod Stewart), Peter Collins (Jewel, Rush, Indigo Girls), Monty Powell (Keith Urban, Lady A, Diamond Rio) and others that he’s no doubt picked up a few tricks from over the years.

He could create the emotional lyrics, while I could compose the music to correspond. Our music matured together and thus, took on a more emotional aspect, pathos, for me. We invited a few of our mutual friends to play with us and before we knew it, we became Overcast Sundays. Our band evolved into a family and we spent endless days playing in my garage. I learned how to incorporate more instruments into my compositions and how to emphasize the lyrics through music. Each song meant something to us, there was a piece of each of us within every song we

Since YG's second mix tape The Genuine 4fingaz, He has created on the greater part of his mix tapes. "I began making beats for YG; he was one the first individuals to do my beats. I began with him, so for us to do a mix tape was simple. We made this moving sound.
The track only features two actual instrumentations: saxophone, played by Branford Marsalis, and scratches provided by Terminator X, the group's DJ and turntablist. (Rider Polly, 2017) This track has great influence in my creativity and my mindset. Because of this song I started sampling from vinyl’s to DAW.
I know I will never be as good at writing song lyrics or making music like RM does {or any of the other members do}. He loves making music. As soon as a new music video comes out from BTS I get excited and get inspired to follow my dream. Rap Monster even made 2 songs dedicated to A.R.M.Y {BTS fan base}. He explains how thankful that he is for our support.
I decided to make a song about them, but I did not have money or a place to record. This tragedy is what got me interested in studio recording. I knew that is was not going to be easy becoming a studio engineer, but I was very determined to take the steps that were needed to achieve my goal. I always wondered how rappers record their music. I thought they used their phones to record their music.
Whenever I try to do stuff, that kind of factors in what’s going on, it gets scrapped,” he says. For example, “I tried to make a dubstep beat once and I just couldn’t do it. My body could not do it. And I don’t hate it, I like dubstep. I was like, ‘I need to know how to make this,’ and I just couldn’t,” he explains. “I bought all the programs, all the ‘this-is-how-you-make-a-dubstep’ software, and I still couldn’t do it,” he jokes. As far as we could tell, fans weren’t in the least bothered by the lack of dubstep beats in his set, and rightly so, because, as he puts
Additionally, he had an ardor for poetry as a young teen and began writing about these experiences he went through. He was like camera man of a movie and the world was his footage. He worked with his English teacher to emend his writing and poems as much as he could. Eventually, he began turning it into music which he also had a passion for. He made and released his first mixtape at 16 that was recognized by the notorious owner of Top Dawg Entertainment, an indie hip-hop record label, who gave the teenage boy a record label.
To record the songs, I would write a song and record a corresponding loop track on the Loop Station app. Then, on my camera, I would record a video performing the song with the loop track playing. I would crop the video so it was just the song, upload it onto YouTube as unlisted, convert the video to mp3 and delete it afterwards. Then, I'd take a photo from the four character shoots that fit with the song and upload it on SoundCloud with the photo. To record the music videos, I would choose a concept for the video, style myself as one of the characters, film clips on my tablet relating to the concept and song, edit the clips and audio together on the VideoShow app, and upload the video on YouTube. Originally there were 4 videos, but 2 of them I felt were inappropriate for the aesthetic of the album and the associated song so I removed them and never shot any
