Take It Easy

Trap Set (ft. Demarco)

(English below)
Moin. Ich bin KI Locke und veröffentliche nach 18 Jahren Musikmachen meine ersten Songs und widme das erste Album "Gefangen in der Matrix" meinen Opa Locke, der mich immer unterstützt hat! Als professioneller DJ hat er mich sehr früh zur Musik gebracht. Mit 12 Jahren habe ich Locke auf Partys mit kurzen Sets unterstützt. Mit 17 Jahren hätte ich die Möglichkeit gehabt seine Veranstaltungen langsam zu übernehmen. Ich habe mich dagegen entschieden, weil ich schnell gemerkt habe, dass man als allgemeiner Party DJ die Lieder spielen muss, die das Publikum abfeiert und nicht die man selber am liebsten hört. Anstatt einer Spezialisierung auf Reggae mit Vinyl Platten, habe ich mir mit Freunden selber Gitarre beigebracht, war dann in der Schulband und auf vielen Jam Sessions unterwegs, sowie zweimal mit der Gitarre in Jamaika, für insgesamt 4 Monate im Zeitraum von 2009-2011. Seit einigen Jahren produziere ich Musik mit dem Programm Cubase. 
Auch Locke war von den heutigen Möglichkeiten der Künstlichen Intelligenz in der Musik begeistert. Alle Stimmen bei dem Album "Gefangen in der Matrix" sind mit KI generiert. Nun habe ich Lockes Erbe angetreten und trage seinen Namen mit KI weiter!
Wenn du mich unterstützen möchtest, würde ich mich sehr freuen, wenn du mich mit 2€ zum virtuellen Kaffee einlädst. Riesen mega geilen Dank, dein KI Locke.

Hi. I'm KI Locke and after 18 years of making music I'm releasing my first songs and dedicating the first album "Trapped in the Matrix" to my grandpa Locke, who has always supported me! As a professional DJ, he introduced me to music at a very early age. When I was 12, I supported Locke at parties with short sets. At the age of 17, I would have had the opportunity to slowly take over his events. I decided against it because I quickly realized that as a general party DJ you have to play the songs that the audience loves and not the ones you like to hear yourself. Instead of specializing in reggae with vinyl records, I taught myself guitar with friends, then was in the school band and went to many jam sessions, as well I was with my guitar twice times in Jamaica, for a total of 4 months between 2009 and 2011. I have been producing music using the Cubase program for several years. Locke was also enthusiastic about the current possibilities of artificial intelligence in music. All voices on the album “Trapped in the Matrix” are generated with AI. Now I have inherited Locke's legacy and am carrying on his name with KI(AI)! If you would like to support me, I would be very happy if you invited me to a virtual coffee for €2. Huge thank you, your KI Locke.

Colin Patrick Harper hails from the Bermuda Islands. In the music industry, he is known as the reggae artist Collie Buddz. Buddz was born on August 21, 1984 in New Orleans, Louisiana. After graduating from high school, he attended Full Sail University in Orlando, FL, where he decided to study studio engineering.  Upon graduating from college in 2006, Buddz began looking for work in the recording industry as a performer or producer. One of his first major gigs was working with recording star Shaggy on the single "Mad Mad World" from Shaggy's new album entitled Intoxication, which was release in 2007. That was the same year he released his self-titled debut album with Sony Music. The album was a moderate success, but well-received by critics.  WWE (World Wrestling Enterprises) fans would immediately recognize Buddz's voice from the entrance theme ("SOS") for WWE superstar wrestler Kofi Kingston, which was included on the 2008 compilation WWE The Music, Vol. 8. Over the next year, he would continue making guest appearances on the works of other artists.  It is no small coincidence that his stage name "Buddz" is slang for marijuana. There have been photographs taken of the artist holding bongs and other pot-smoking paraphernalia over the years. Of course, other reggae artist such as Bob Marley have made weed seem an essential part of the reggae lifestyle.  At the end of the decade, Buddz started his own record label called Harper Digital. When not working in the studio, he found himself selling out venue after venue on one of his many exhaustive tours. In 2011, he would finally release his second album entitled Playback. As was the case with the first album, this album was a modest success commercially, but the critics loved his work.  With a couple of albums and a good reputation under his belt, Buddz is a frequent performer at many of the major reggae festivals around the world.
