• Tell me about you and where you came from

  I came to Los Angeles, from Peru, with my mother when i was about 2 years old.
  I'm 20 now and go to Santa Monica College.
  Music had always excited me but i didn't have the maturity and discipline growing up to learn to play an instrument--unlike most musicians who i think start at a young age. I really started to crave music once i discovered Diplo, Deadmau5--and Nero was a huge one.
  After continuing to download on average 25 songs per day, I wanted to find the most interesting and scary music i could find--which eventually lead to me wanting my own unique sound.
  I think i have a unique perspective on Music--i really want to learn enough to show myself what i can be capable of--with that perspective that i have--and influence people around the world.
  I found your "Making a bassline in Ableton Live" video and instantly enjoyed the way you taught. I get frustrated all of the time because i don't how to navigate the various features of Ableton: create what i hear in my head.
