"its the sound waves that drive my passion"

1996 is when I first got into music. A friend of mine lent me a music mixing program called “Mixman”. After messing around with the different features in the program, I decided it would be a good idea to buy a keyboard. But, being only in Junior High School, I didn't have much money. So I borrowed a keyboard from another friend. Shortly after, I added a drum machine to my collection of gear. Not long after, I saw videos of Djs using turntables as an instrument. By this time I had saved some money and was able to purchase my first beginner turntable setup. Not knowing how to use them was a problem at first. But, I soon realized that I could use concert videos of pro Djs to help me. I would watch what they did with one hand in slow motion, and then rewind it and watch what they did with the other hand in slow motion.

I spent 2 years Djing weddings, corporate functions, clubs, and festivals. Under my own name and with a few other DJ companies. After a few years of making my own tracks and working for different music equipment stores I decided to take a chance and apply to work at a recording studio. One such studio “AB Records Inc.” was willing to teach me how to be a sound engineer and professional producer. After a 4 year apprenticeship I was hired as a full time employee. We recorded bands, voice-overs, we
did mixing, mastering, sound design, created sound effects, and I taught Djing and electronic music production to clients and full time students. I am still with the studio at this point, and it has been a wonderful 7 years working with them. I am proud to say that my areas of expertise is now professional sound design, and music production. Which I still continue to teach.

Now, I am looking for the next chapter to write into my experience in the music industry.
