Personal Statement

I am a kind of person who is more inclined towards music and musical instruments but choosing music as a career was never came in my mind in childhood. I was a achiever in my school and always worked hard in academic subjects but my interest in music was a top priority of my life. I loved to buy musical equipments and always listen to different pop, classical and romantic music. It was not until the age of 14 when I became obsessive about music and wanted to contribute to the music industry.

I never wanted such producers who do not understand my passion and obsession for music, therefore I left that job. After leaving Handy production, I spent a good amount of money on setting up my own home studio where I kept all my instruments and equipments. Apart from this self learning effort, I also went to Gateshead College to enhance my learning about making beats. I learned on my own about music by using programs such as logic and pro tools.
