I want to make my music a genre that people can immediately identify: something that never existed.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm a huge fan of a lot of different genres of music, and I really felt like somehow I had been pigeonholed a little bit - maybe of my own doing - and in a way where I felt like I was sort of falsely defined. What my music was being called wasn't really the music I was always listening to.
I just don't let music genres define me.
I don't want to be held down by genres so much.
I don't want to make niche-oriented music.
A way to make new music is to imagine looking back at the past from a future and imagine music that could have existed but didn't. Like East African free jazz, which as far as I know does not exist.
I want to make the music that people remember, and it doesn't need a trend; it doesn't need to be constantly hyped. There's no time period for it. That's the type of music I want to make.
I don't like to classify my own tracks as a genre.
I don't really believe in genres. I don't want people to have any preconceptions about me. I want the first impression to be the music.
I really love music that's on the periphery of not fitting into a clear genre. I felt like I was constantly being described as something I didn't really feel like I identified with.
I guess one thing that makes my music stand out is that it is quite hard to determine what genre it is.
