What is music to you? What does it give you?

Music is everything to me. It is a form of universal communication of emotions even if you do not understand the language that is used if there are any vocals. Music is a form of religion for me and I immediately feel connected to people, after knowing that a person also loves music as much as I do.

What is your music dream?

To be frank how much ever I dream about music, there are always bigger and bigger dreams that appear in my imagination. But yeah to give you a brief idea, I want to be an independent artist that does almost everything on his own, and still end up at the top. I want the next era of musicians to inspiration from my music and methods on a global scale.

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

So I'm going to answer this with the lyrics from 1 of my songs: Perspective conversion from shallowness to more of a deepness, Reflective inversion from hollowness to a more completeness, Literate or illiterate we are strive for a life of fullness, Abled or disabled we all face tremors of the same steepness. In time I'll even try to automate raps in all forms of sign language, Why should these words be restricted to the ears of the deaf and dumb, Instead of piling up problems rather help others manage baggage, The human race exists to have a hive mind.

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

Till I collapse - Eminem

Artists : Eminem, Dr. Dre, J Cole, Kendrick Lamar, Nas, Tupac Shakur, Tame Impala, Alt J Bands : Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Beatles, Iron Maiden, Linkin Park, Lamb of God

What inspires you to make music?

The ability to make others listen to what the world of musicians, scientists, influencers, motivators and all other great personalities have achieved & how to use their paths as a reference for us to become better human beings to set an unforgettable example for the future generations to come.

What is the message you want to send with your music?

The human race exists to be a hive mind, so let us help each other heal from all the damages that has already been caused & to brace for all the damages that yet to come as one single entity in unison.

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

I feel like I want to be heard with their utmost attention, and spread my ideologies through my lyricism.

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

Reality is that everyone that has money to promote, market, shoot videos etc. and a position in the society are able to showcase their talent easily, but the independent up and coming artists who do not have such advantages struggle to make themselves get heard. It is all thanks to people like Melina who have been developing platforms like this to help undiscovered artists gain fans that the times are now changing for the better.

What do you think of Drooble?

Drooble is a wonderful concept and to be frank being a designer & musician I feel jealous that I did not think about it. It has the ability to help people reach out and improve a musicians fanbase indirectly for free. To promote and market your music through ads are pretty expensive as they charge by the day. It is thanks to drooble now people can earn karma points to market it themselves. It is also a wonderful place for inexperienced artists to gain more experience by getting constant feedback in exchange for doing something for them. It helps both the parties grow and reach out.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

That not only do factors like skill and musicality depend on the growth of a musician but also that these days you need to run campaigns for ads and run social media ads, or else your music will not be promoted by music sharing platforms. But thanks to Drooble, now I have a solution to this problem.

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

I spread the music of all artists that I discover in my region to all my friends and fans. If time, location & my financial situation permits, I support artists by going to their concerts and watching them perform live.

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

Apart from the producing, songwriting, performing skills which are a must, they need to have a good skill level in content creation, music promotion & social media management.
