What instruments are you able to best express yourself with?
I enjoy all instruments, but I started with the bass, so I think
the instrument that best fits me is the bass. I also like drum machines and
percussion instruments, but besides the bass, I play percussion and drums
mostly during sessions.
You had been playing bass since you were a teenager, but why did
you choose bass as your first instrument?
I found a broken bass and started jamming with a friend who also
started playing the guitar.
What do you like about the bass?
I think the bass is a fun instrument to play. The position of
the bassist in the band is also good. I mean you have a good view of the band.
Basslines have both rhythm and melodies, and in some songs, you often remember
simple bass lines rather than the chorus or vocals. I used to go to Dub’s sound
system. At old-fashioned dub parties like Jah Shaka and Aba Shanti, I liked the
feeling of the bass shaking my body emitted from a handmade sound system.
In illustrating, do you mainly use analog methods such as
pencils and pens, but what about music production?
Because it is a style of recording by musical instruments, I
think that it can be said that my music is analog. Although the equipment we
use is both analog and digital. I believe in using anything that is available
to us that is there.
