I started as a DJ many years ago, first on analog equipment and then on digital controllers. Then I learned to make beats and write songs. Next, I started learning how to produce and became an audio engineer. This progression taught me a great deal, but it took a long time. However, from the very beginning, I was always fascinated by the music business and wanted to learn how it all worked. I figured it out, and now I’m a songwriter and publisher with ASCAP, a performance rights organization. I’m a self-publisher and have an administration deal to collect my worldwide royalties.
