Another thing I should stress is that, even though I am a millennial, I am very much old school when it comes to tech. Going to mix down this demo entirely on the TASCAM. **** those DAW programs.
All range. Damn, that's soo true.

What's your favorite genre? Mine is still punk because it's how my brain operates. Really freaking fast.
All range. I had documentaries of classic rock and pop, two parents whos tastes went from soul to jazz to country to pop to metal to folk, and there was modern radio where hip jop and punk were the big things.
So as a kid lots of rockabilly/pop/country. Then when I got old enough to con my parents I had DMX and Eminem albums. Then in high school I just wanted to piss people off so I started listening to punk.
But my parents would make me listen to Shania Twain, Brooks and Dunn, Elton John, Cher, and others.

Plus, my dad has weird taste in music so I heard stuff like Paper Lace, Clarence Carter, and Johnny Horton.
My influences, or rather the stuff I listened to in my formative years, would be Nelly, Ludacris, and Eminem.

When I got older I gravitated to Akon, Dr. Dre, and Yelawolf.

Yelawolf is like one of my main idols. That dude is straight fire.
And when I was growing up here you either listened to country or hip-hop. Obviously, the closer you are to the city the more hip-hop it gets and the further away the more country it gets. But I'm in a town that is squarely in the cross section of those two genres. Not really city but not really rural either.

My style is mountain tunes with a dash of hip-hop. So lots of homemade instruments alongside a fat beat. I really like the 808s but with some twang. That’s the easiest way to describe it.

As for the philosophy behind it I’m just trying to capture that cross between urban and rural. It’s not unheard of to be sitting at a stop light with one radio blaring bass and another blaring twang.
All you have to do is turn a right-hand golf ball upside-down.

That's what Jimi would do.
I actually taught myself to play golf left-handed because the clubs were so much cheaper. Now I'm just waiting for someone to invent left-handed golf balls
