Name: amplifya/ Adam

Location: Philly/NYC

Talents: Piano Player, Beatmaker

Looking to Build With: Musicians possibly interested in forming a band with similar musical tastes, possibly producers or rappers in the area

Short bio of your musical career/current interests: I had made beats 5-6 years, have sold a modest amount off the net and given beats to a few people here and there but am losing interest in hip hop, havent made a new beat in almost a year, although I have a kinda crazy amount of beats from the past 2 years no one has heard. I took piano lessons as a kid and have been practicing jazz piano every day for a while and want to be able to eventually improvise well and want to start writing songs..I'd consider myself intermediate level if that means anything..meaning I could play some fairly difficult stuff if I practice it, and am good at memorizing stuff, but I can't sit down and play/sight read something i've never seen nor could i improvise well. Being a keyboardist for either a band or collaborating with a singer writing songs/producing some triphopish type stuff would be dope I think..or an emcee who was in tune with the type of shit I like and i thought was dope enough to inspire me to make beats again

Current Influences/Tastes/Favorite artists: Jazz, Singer/songwriter/prog pop, hip hop, Tori Amos, Fiona Apple, Frou Frou, Bjork, Billy Joel, Outkast, Joe Budden, Elzhi, Dilla, DJ Premier, Supastition, Nas, Just Blaze, Kanye, Coltrane, Miles Davis, Cannonball Adderly, alot of random jazz, some classic rock, funk, hip hop

Talents: Trumpet, Trombone, Keyboard, Synthesis (I created my own synths and effect plugin), composing music, playing live (in a rock band called Dirty Bath Water), sound design

Looking to Build With: Dope emcees and singers

Short bio of your musical career/current interests: My musical background started at the age of 9, when I started learning to play the trumpet. I started composing at 10, and started recording beats (with two busted tape players and a casio) at age 13/14. I was influenced by a vast range of musical genres, including jazz, reggae, electronica, rock, and 90's hip hop. This is the reason that I make a wide variety of styles of music, ranging from up tempo "club bangers" to smooth melodic tunes though I stay grounded in raw and gritty Hip Hop. By combining my natural musical ability with my trained skills, I am able to adapt to and create a wide variety of music.

>Short bio of your musical career/current interests:

Originally a jazz performance (alto sax) major at the U of Texas, I went thru some changes in my goals and changed majors. But around the same time, I started experimenting with one of my other musical loves, hip hop. Four years later, here I am. I base my sound in jazz and soul, but try to be original with how I flip it. I also like playing with genres, especially experimenting with infusing elements of southern beats into my beats. But fuck it. Just listen.

>Current Influences/Tastes/Favorite artists:

In general, old school east coasty types. G-Funk too. Also a lot of downtempo/trip hop producers...Fat Jon, DJ Krush, DJ Cam, etc...

But more and more, southern producers too.
