I'm a Collaborative Pianist, which means I work with opera singers. I like it. I like art songs, operas, cantatas, all that. And I like just piano stuff---sonatas, preludes, whatever. And I like Chamber music--trios, quartets. And I like Singing operatically myself, but usually I let the other person sing and I play for 'em. And I'm a passionate rapper. Absolute passionate devotee of rap.
Piano, viola, organ.
Reaper
My desktop PC, Behringer UMC 404HD, M-Audio monitors ($80, not good ones), M-audio Keystation Mini 32, and for my rap vocals I have a Bluebird condenser, because that's what my producer had when I used to record with him and not make my own beats.
Ravel Piano Trio and Childish Gambino's "Awaken, My Love!" Mac Miller's Swimming...that's the main kick.
Necro "The Sexorcist", Latyrx "The Album", Del Tha Funkee Homosapien, "Deltron 3030", Snoop Dogg's "Tha Blue Carpet Treatment"
I adore Eminem, Snoop Dogg, MF Doom, Bon Iver, Bob Dylan, Faithless, Rammstein, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Van Morrison, Bach, Richard Strauss, and I've been on a HARD Ravel kick for a while. Some Tom Jobim. All that stuff. Disco, Motown, 90's Grunge, it's all kosher, man. Vierne---he's an organ guy. Widor and Vierne, great artists. All dead.
MF Doom. Like slightly more refined Aesop Rock and MF Doom.
