Milestones
My road in life took a while to figure out.
I received my first guitar in 6th grade.
I began learning more instruments and played guitar / bass / drums for a few bands.
Then I discovered beat making on fruity loops.
Then I realized I could be my own band with endless options of sound design through midi and synths.
Then I began making beats for rappers.
I went to a few festivals and decided it was time to take the project on the road. Now I am touring.

Day to Day
My day starts with a morning routine to get my mind right. This includes a cold shower, stretch, and 10 mins of deep breathing. I then write in my notebook whatever is on my mind (worries, concerns, goals, etc). Next I fuel my body with something nutritious and begin working on a project. I use Ableton Live and a few midi controls for production. After making a few rough beats to finish later I would work on mastering a project for a client and then get ready for a show I had later that night.
Advice for Getting Started
Here's the first step for college students
College isn't needed to become a Music Producer but it will give you some great resources. My school offered classes in state of the art recording studios where I was able to become familiar with some of the best gear and software in the industry.
