What initially sparked your passion for music, and how did you decide to pursue a career in the industry?
From a very young age, music has been my constant companion in every stage of my life. I vividly remember the first time I experienced the magic of a melody, how it seized my senses and transported me to another world. Since then, music has become my deepest form of expression, a way to give voice to my innermost emotions and thoughts. Every time I immerse myself in musical creation or performance, I feel a visceral connection to my inner self and to the universe around me. This emotional and spiritual connection to music is what has led me to pursue a career in the music industry, because I believe in the transformative and healing power of music to unite people and transcend the barriers of time and space.
Can you share a memorable moment from your music career that made a significant impact on your artistic journey?
A memorable moment in my music career was when I performed at a cultural festival in Bali. The audience’s energy and the serene environment created a magical atmosphere that deeply resonated with my music. This experience reinforced my belief in the universal language of music and its power to connect people from diverse backgrounds.
As an artist, how do you approach the creative process? Do you have any specific rituals or methods to get into the creative mindset?
For me, the creative process is a journey of self-discovery and infinite exploration. It begins with keen observation of the world around me, absorbing every detail and capturing the subtle vibrations that resonate in my soul. Then, I move to the introspective phase, where I delve deep into my being to unearth the emotions and experiences I want to convey through my music. This stage can be challenging and often requires time for reflection and solitude. Once I have a clear vision of what I want to express, the experimentation phase begins, where I play with sounds, rhythms, and harmonies to shape my creative vision. Sometimes, this part of the process involves breaking rules and challenging established boundaries to create something truly unique and original. Ultimately, the creative process is an act of love and devotion, a commitment to the tireless pursuit of beauty and truth through art.
How do you stay motivated and inspired to continue creating music, especially during times when inspiration might be elusive?
Keeping the flame of creativity and passion alive in a world that often seems dominated by routine and monotony can be quite a challenge. For me, the key to staying motivated and inspired lies in cultivating a mindset of openness and constant curiosity. I am always seeking out new experiences and perspectives that can fuel my creativity and enrich my worldview. This may mean exploring different musical genres, immersing myself in nature, or simply taking time to be silent and listen to the voice of my intuition. Additionally, surrounding myself with a community of artists and friends who share my passion for music is crucial to staying focused and committed to my art. Together, we support, inspire, and challenge each other to reach new creative heights, constantly reminding ourselves of the transformative and liberating power of music.
