Please tell us about your music production journey.

At the age of 16, I had downloaded a bunch of music software off the internet and had begun experimenting with them by trying to make beats which I had thoroughly enjoyed. By the age of 17, I had met a couple of Indian artists and had started producing beats for them. I was also able to pick up ideas from a copious number of audio engineers and had simultaneously kept on working towards improving my music. As months passed by, I was presented with the opportunity to collaborate with various artists from different genres and this allowed me to begin my journey in music production.

What's your process like working with aritst?

I start my production process by making the beats first and then moving on to the melody. Once this is done, I move on to adding the vocals of the artists into the track, and then you have yourself a completed song.

Before working with an artist, I try to figure out whether their lyrics/wordplays have a story to tell. I believe that is one of the main qualities I would look for in an artist as that would allow me to build a bond with him/her. Another important quality would be whether the artist and I are on the same wavelength throughout the track. If the lyrics/wordplay as well as the wavelength match, I'd love to work with him/her.

Biggest lesson learned in music production.

I would say that the biggest lesson I have learned during my journey in music production is 'Patience'. Producing music is a time-consuming process as it requires multiple alterations of the beats, making sure the artist's vocals fit in smoothly, etc. If one doesn't possess the ability to have patience, I can assure you that one will not be satisfied with the output displayed.

What do you think of the music industry in Dubai?

The music industry in Dubai is filled with a plethora of talented artists, producers, instrumentalists, and sound engineers. However, I feel that the music industry in the country would be referred to as a sleeping giant. For the music industry in Dubai to reach its potential, I think a stronger market is required which would allow every musician/ music producer to grow and present their music to the world.

Would you consider yourself a morning person?

No. I would consider myself to be an inveterate night owl.

Among the big names who would like to work with?

I would consider it a dream come true to produce music for India's two well-reputed music artists - DIVINE and Bohemia. Karan Kanchan and Metro Boomin are some of the producers whom I would also love to work with.
