Since the year 2000: I’ve followed my passion for music
extensively & unwarily religiously so. I’ve helplessly followed wherever it
led me. From my 1st discovery of the double disk compilation album
called Verve remixes to Boozoo Bajou; Dorfmiester to 340ml; Blue 6 to J Dilla;
Foreign exchange to 4 hero & the list goes on & on like Erykah Badu!
The point is: I’ve been very true with
my feelings for global/world music. It played a big role in influencing my way
of thinking. The way I look at the world & how I’d like to change or make my
community a better place to live in. Like the air that I breathe, appreciating my
parents for my existence & being thankful for being able to wake up
everyday with a purpose: Music!
I think now I’m at a point where I’m listening to a sound I
never knew I was looking for. And I've always been drawn to the strange sounds
of Massive Attack, Portishead, Matthew Herbert, Hird, Dimlite, Forrs & Oy.
The fantastical sounds of Cinematic Orchestra, Dzihan & Kamien. To future
sounds of Jamoriquai, Nicolay, Blaq Faith, Domu, Dego, 2000 black, IAMNOBODY,
Pandaboy & Astronautica! These sounds changed my perception of music &
life in general. It broke me out of the chains of conformity. It made me fly
when I didn't believe I could. It made me live out of the box; always. I’m so in
love & in an affair that’s been going for 13 years now...
