Introduce yourself in one paragraph:
-I’m just a guy who loves music and I’m very dedicated I would like to make new songs that really stand out
Were you connected with music from a young age, or anyone in particular inspired you?
I started in music at a very young age, I don’t remember very well! I think I was less than 5 years old, I discovered a guitar that my father had, saved! but I never had the opportunity to play it because I had no one to teach me how to play it, it wasn’t until I was 8 years old that I heard a song that I liked so much that I learned it while singing and that was the first time I started singing, two years later I started singing play in a local band, the band was not famous and I started playing drums with them and that same year I was in 4th grade and there was a contest in my school where the other schools were participating and competing with each other and my school did not have a singer and there they discovered me, there I had my first teacher and he was the one who helped me improve my singing voice, it was so great I even managed to win first place two years in a row, but when I was in my last year in sixth grade I got the third place! but I did not make sad. and we always played with my band in mini-concerts Until the end of my 17 years, I left the band because I had some problems with other members because some wanted to change another musical genre and experiment. with a new genre but not others! and so I left the band, I was absent for a year without knowing anything about music I felt empty until I discovered the Daws, it was so great because I didn’t know they existed and that’s when I started making music on my own and in that same year I discovered marshmello inspired me a lot to create my own style and that’s where my trap style mixed with future bass came from but I can do any genre of music because I like to learn new things.
