"who put this thing together?...me, that's who.."
Scar face couldn't have given a better intro to my
'Band in a can!'. Sample creation and MIDI-knob fiddling on a PC.
Bring into the mix a combined DJ experience of well over a decade in the Latin scene in New Jersey (USA), Portsmouth (England), and Sheffield (England) has prompted this artist to start to combine and explore the musical influences of these geographic regions.
Started around sept-oct 2002, and since then have produced four albums.
'left in a latin trance trip', from the first album was distributed nationally with the Daily Star Newspaper (British), with over 1 millon CDs distributed across the country. The CD featured future producers, and I was lucky to have a track included.
Usually play my tracks and mixes on a few DJ nights, and have DJ friends who play my music. It's good to see people take to a song that was home-brewed.
A few memorable moments include:
First album track, Featured in Daily Star
National newspaper featured, 'left in a latin trance trip'. Quite lucky after 6 months work on a PC (2002).
Featured on Future Music Magazine, 2004
Second album cover & song discussed on Future Music Magazine
Cumbia Soledeña, Salsa, Merengue, trance, hip-hop (old school), house, techno, Bachata, Samba, Electronica, lo-fi, break beats.
FL Studio, Acid Pro, evolution uc-303, VST sound plugins, Licensed samples
