Making Music During Isolation



Making Music During Isolation
In this video I go over 5 simple strategies on how to keep the music going during Isolation. 

For those who don’t know me I’m a Guatemalan based in Denver Colorado. I started making music after going to a festival called Semana de Musica Avanzada. Were I saw a video on how the Guatemalan Electronic music had started. I had 0 musical training or experience.
So I decided to get Ableton live and a Midi Keyboard and figure it out. Soon after I figured out that it was not going to be easy. I saw music as a way to express feelings, emotions and connect with people. 

Now 10 years later I have released in labels like Global Underground, Babiczstyle, and Moody Recordings. I have been able to releases alongside artist’s likes of Robert Babicz, Xpansul, Jaceo, Jonas Tempel, Ben A and Rick Wade.  I Love blending  gritty organic sounds with Latin instrumentation, celebrating My Latin roots and bringing that  uniqueness to my production.

I served as Mentor for Redline ArtCorps a network of programs that support the arts at under-resourced schools in RedLine’s community of Five Points. By establishing strong connections between art, education, and the community, ArtCorps increases student’s opportunities for creative engagement in schools, allowing for a more rigorous and well-rounded education. I mentored Evan to learn how to produce music and channel his energy into music.

During my period with Redline, I understood that passing down knowledge has more impact and that Is why I decided to start my YouTube channel journey and help people interested in making music in a non-technical way with videos about music production based on my experience and mistakes that I've made in my music production journey.

Self Distancing Jam Session 02 Elektron Octatrack Digitone Korg Minilogue XD

In the midst of the world changing with the COVID-19 pandemic, I have decided to start recording more Jam Sessions and putting to perspective what I learn about my machines. This was inspired by an Isolation

En medio del mundo que cambia con la pandemia de COVID-19, he decidido comenzar a grabar más Jam Sessions y poner en perspectiva lo que aprendo sobre mis máquinas.
Inspired by this Poem: Even from isolation
