Some kinds of music speaks more to a personality and lifestyle. This is what hardstyle is for me. The core idea of hardstyle is to go hard or go home, in all that you do.

I picked up guitar when I was 14. I was told if I stuck to it, I would get a nice electric guitar to play on. Within a year, I had earned my electric guitar.
My first electric guitar..

At one point, I had formed my own band. It failed quickly for many reasons. At this point, I started writing music on my own.

One night I seen a commercial for Full Sail on Adult Swim. I immediately signed up, as I craved more than anything to grow as a musician.

He introduced me to hardstyle, and my good friends Chancy Stromme and Tyler Lewis of Pyrotense.

I wouldn’t commit myself to such an undertaking blindly.
I believe everything in life happens for a reason, and as long as we make every choice a conscious decision towards a goal, that goal will become reality.

The events in my life and the people I have met weren’t coincidence. I opened my mind to the messages of life and my community and in doing so have found my tribe.

Hardstyle speaks to me on a personal level. It reminds me to keep my head up, work hard for what I want, and give everything I have to what I do. It cheers me up when I am down and provides a positive release for the challenging times in life. This is the essence of why hardstyle, why I do what it is I do.

That’s why my mantra is “Go hard or go home”.Sunday, November 16, 14
That’s why my mantra has always been go hard or go home. In all of life, I am a very passionate person. I give myself to everything life brings me. I respect authority, when respect is due. I can take and give orders, and am best at making things happen.
I have many skills and strengths. There has been more time in my life to reflect on self than many others care to take.

I have a few competitive advantages on my side. In this industry, it takes a lot more than drive to get what you want. It takes time, skill, practice, and a few friendly faces to help you along the way. I have been lucky enough to receive those blessings.
All my music is completely original, minus remixes. I can honestly say I have designed every element of my original songs.
Sunday, November 16, 14
All my music is completely original, minus remixes. Even then, it’s still bringing new ideas to an old friend. However, as far as my own music goes, I can honestly say I have designed every element and did every bit of work in it. I have also had the pleasure of working with others, and learned about the different kind of artists and how to communicate with them.
I also have the advantage of a diverse background. I can easily and quickly figure out how much reception a song will have by asking the many people in my community how they feel about it.

I also have the advantage of a diverse background. I can easily and quickly figure out how much reception a song will have by asking the many people in my community how they feel about it. I understand the many mentalities of humanity, and know what speaks to them and why.
The best, and sometimes worst advantage, is also my location. Eugene has many personalities to it, and many of them are into similar types of music.

The best, and worst advantage, is also my location. Eugene has many personalities to it, and many of them are into similar types of music. It’s also a college town, located closely to two larger cities. This is advantageous because its a short drive to a pretty town that is begging for something new.
From 2008-2009, I was in my band Herd of Turtles. From 2009-2012 I played with many, many people. Some were just casual jams, others were attempts at bands.
Yes, that is me.

In 2012, I got into hardstyle, and just got into school. By 2013, I had started producing, and stopped writing organic songs. By 2014, I started in hardstyle.
I got into Full Sail in 2011, and a year later I was introduced to hardstyle. I finally started producing about a year ago, after taking a long time to digest the scene.

For many years I listened to black, death, and progressive metal. After progressive is when I really discovered hardstyle and decided to go with it.

I have had mixed experiences working with others and music. I have found I work best with people who have a lot of drive and passion for their music. The biggest reason I stopped playing in bands with others was because of their reliability. I have always been the type that, if given an opportunity, I will jump. But a lot of other musicians don’t possess that drive.
Lately, I work best in my own studio. It’s cut off from the world, often darkly lit, and it’s just me and my equipment and my thoughts. However, many nights were spent working with Pyrotense. I learned it’s best not to have too many distractions.

I am by nature an entrepreneurial spirit. I know and understand that that’s what being a producer and DJ is. You have to work for yourself, get your own gigs, make a name for yourself.Sunday, November 16, 14
I am by nature an entrepreneurial spirit. I know and understand that that’s what being a producer and DJ is. You have to work for yourself, get your own gigs, make a name for yourself. Even before I was producing, I understood that. I want a contract, but I also love the freedom of working for myself.

My first taste of Hardstyle. The first track I wrote with Pyrotense. “Into the Darkness”
Sorry I don’t have a screenshot I can share with you. The track wasn’t done on my computer so isnt immediately on
hand.
Disclaimer: I did not do the sound design on this song. This song was my first legitimate hardstyle collaboration. Pyrotense did the sound design, and I contributed significantly in the composition and arranging of the song. I do receive producer credit,
however. This song was the first of many and the beginning of an awesome friendship.
