I've been involved in band for the last fourteen years of my life, can play and perform on various instruments, on top of that, have the producer knowledge through experience within the last ten years. I can make just about anything asked of me, and know all about music, and energy needed to give vocals that POP so everything stands out.

Interview with DjJamzthekidd

  1. Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

  2. A: I did a song with my guy and we named it "everything" which was a good track we did. It consisted of live guitar, and piano, and a whole lot of tools I wanted to use, like reversing clips, grain editors, and a different pace in vocals for the both of us.

  3. Q: What are you working on at the moment?

  4. A: Currently just developing my style more. Challenging myself to mix things that shouldn't mix together. Like oil and water, but I make them work together.

  5. Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

  6. A: I'm still fairly new so not sure yet.

  7. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  8. A: Digital. I'm more comfortable with that layout since I've hardly used analog. Plus, digital makes a bit more sense to me because of the expanded views I get with each tool.

  9. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  10. A: I promise to communicate and adapt to your style. I'm here to produce for you. Not for me.

  11. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  12. A: I love making tracks and being proud of melodies or drum loops I make. I have a passion to be a mass producer so now I'm going for the top.

  13. Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

  14. A: What equipment do you use? Ableton, Cubase, basic keyboard, launchpad, and audio setup that gets the job done. (normally happens in person and I'd like to not get robbed).

  15. Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

  16. A: People think I just drop samples and push play when in reality I sit here and make 90% of my own work without samples.

  17. Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

  18. A: What is your style, how do you want to be heard, what is your favorite part in a beat?

  19. Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

  20. A: Ask me questions! learn about what I can and can't do and understand that I get busy at times and mainly work during the night when I'm done at my day job. Trust me to get it done and don't be afraid to push for something that you want specific.

  21. Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?

  22. A: Laptop, over-ear Skullcandy headphones, a keyboard, my launchpad, and a Bluetooth speaker. Make the tracks listen through the headphones. I know how to work with minimal equipment.

  23. Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

  24. A: I've been musically involved for fourteen years, producing for ten, and really deep into the pathway of a professional music producer for the last five years. From going to shows, having people do shows, and getting paid to produce and engineer. I want to be rich but not famous because I really don't want all the attention like that.

  25. Q: How would you describe your style?

  26. A: I'd say I'm a random type of guy. I mix something calm with trap drums, or vice versa. You never know what to expect from me, but be ready for it to shock you when I sit down and produce.

  27. Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

  28. A: I'd like to work with joey badass or Bas, I feel I could do them some justice as a producer and learn a lot from them. On top of that, form more of my set style and learn the process of being a real artist.

  29. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  30. A: If the beat doesn't balance out between lows and highs, use a middle voice that has both parts in them on C3 so it adds that middle support, giving the beat power in every setting possible.

  31. Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

  32. A: I normally work on lofi for my own personal listening since I've honestly been scared to share my other music. Then again on the flip side if I feel a melody I will make it without hesitation as there is music that needs to be made when my brain is rolling.

  33. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  34. A: My strongest skill is being able to hear a mood in someone's voice and forming to that while having complexity in the beats but not to a distracting level. As well as using multiple sounds and making them into one which can be the difference in a basic beat or a JAM beat.

  35. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  36. A: What I bring to a song is a different sound no one ever heard of, or rarely heard of. I combine real life with digital and make products that can catch anyone's attention from the start.

  37. Q: What's your typical work process?

  38. A: If I'm making just a beat, I start with the drums, then form the melody to it since the drum pattern supports the melody. If I have vocals I normally will produce the melody first rather than the drums.

  39. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  40. A: Well, I'm a broke college kid, so I have a fisher 727 reciever, basic laptop with enough power for music, infinity sub, definitive tower speakers, and two bose bookshelf speakers. I plan on upgrading my receiver soon. I use just a basic keyboard for piano production and other melodies, and a novation mini launchpad. I like to keep things simple because my gear doesn't define the quality of work I make.

  41. Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

  42. A: I look up to Hopsin as an artist for his unique style ranging from his beats and vocals. As well as Illmind productions for how simple yet hard his beats are when they are layered with vocals. I can go on forever about people who have inspired me, but these are my biggest two.

  43. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  44. A: Mainly I produce beats and soundtracks but can mix and master tracks if needed, however, it's not my strong suit so it takes a bit longer for me to adjust.

Terms Of Service

I'll change a beat up to five times before I'll stop. If you'd like to cancel a beat, let me know ASAP, if you need mixing and mastering after a beat, we can work things out, but I'm not for free
