Hello everyone – my name is Andrew. I’m a senior mechanical engineering student from New Jersey (Bergen County!)
Since I was young I’ve always been passionate about music. It all started with playing the clarinet/bass clarinet in middle school, and after graduating from the eighth grade, I got my first electric guitar (Fender Strat – Sunburst :O ). In high school, all I would listen to was classic and alternative rock – Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd to Radiohead (favorite band of all time). But, since coming to college, I’ve been a lot more interested in hip-hop/rap, especially the art of production and sound mixing. Rappers like Kendrick Lamar, J.Cole, Kanye West to Tupac, Biggie Smalls, and Nas both reflect lyrical poetry, but artful production and audio mixing. Since my hip-hop “phase”, I’ve wanted to learn more about sound engineering which is why I’m taking the
radiohead is my favorite band too!
