I received Tweet with a SoundCloud attached to it. Like All music
we receive I took a listen to it, and I was surprised. It felt like an old
school Hip-Hop track (and by old-school I’m referring to 80 and 90’s music). The
80’s and 90’s was an era in hip-hop when music had a genuine yet unique feeling
to it. It took me back to the time when you got excited to hear the beats and
the lyrics that went along with those beats. It was during a period when music
had substance. I got that feeling back when I listened to one of 36K’s track.
Let’s just say he is going to be a game changer….he is going to bring back the
90’s sound.
When did you
fall in love with music?
I began to
fall in love with music around the age of 4. I couldn't really understand the
meaning to most songs, but what really caught my attention about music was the
instruments, every element that went into making what I was listening to at the
time, I always questioned how they make that sound the way it sounded.
Who is 36K?
Unlike most
producers I didn't decide to be called Dj so and so, or blank on the beat for
example. Instead I wanted to have a unique name with a lot of meaning behind
it. 36K, is symbolizing the 90's ERA of music also known as "The Golden
Age" because music was so pure, so raw, and meaningful. Long story short,
my name is representing GOLD, 24K isn't good enough.
What
attracts you to the 90’s Hip-Hop sound of music?
The main
thing that attracts me to this style of music are the elements. When you listen
to music from this time you hear originality, creativity, inspiration and many
other things. Not saying I don't like the music from today, to me music back
then was more pure, and meaningful.
What makes
your music unique?
What makes my
music unique, is that there's always different elements, and every time you
listen you can feel where the music is coming from. You can pretty much close
your eyes and visualize something in relation to you, in a way it touches
people.
Describe
your movement NEW JWR$EY NATIVE?
NEW JWR$EY
NATIVE: Is my own personal movement which I came up with a few months back.
It's pretty much a description of what you hear when you listen to my music. We
all know east/west/southern styles of music, when you listen to my music you're
hearing music from a NEW JWR$EY NATIVE. It’s not anything else but a kid from
Jersey with ambitions.
What was
your inspiration behind “While You Wait”?
When I made
"While You Wait" I was honestly responding to a few listeners, (I
don't call them fans) who were actually looking forward to me releasing some
new material. Before that track I have been very quiet because I'm working on
an instrumental tape. So the inspiration behind that was to talk to those
listeners let them know I'm still active, and give them a taste of what direction
that project is headed.
What can we expect from you in the future?
You can expect a lot of stuff from me. I'm
constantly making beats daily, I could honestly tell you I make about 3/4 beats
a day. My upcoming project is strictly 90's based music, with inspiration from
producers like;!ll Mind, Pete Rock, The Alchemist, Battlecat, and many more.
When it’s
all said in done, would you rather be remembered as a businessman or for your
music?
I would
rather be remembered for my music. The reason why is because music speaks to
people, you could be a business man for 10 years active, but what happens when
someone else creates a better business? You fall. Music lives forever I still
listen to Krs One, Wutang, Eric B & Rakim and many more, mind you when
those cats were out I was barely even 4. People respond to music.
