Introduction | Why I am here

in #introductionpost7 years ago (edited)

| Beginning my Journey |

Hello there ! It is I, Sebastian. Wait, no, that's too formal, hehe, I am Sebastian. I am a 17 year old music enthusiast who is currently situated in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. I am currently a homeschooling student at a small institute, not too far from where I live.

I have lived in Durban for quite some time now, and I have to say, it is great ! It is quite luscious and welcoming for a city, because when you think of a city, you think of large tall buildings and little pieces greenery, usually a single tree, or a park here and there. Here, it is different

I am very grateful to have joined the community, and not only have I been taken under the wing of a close personal friend of mine, who is showing me the ropes of how this site works and how I would need to go about starting all of this. @stefan.steynberg

I am a music enthusiast, I produce music, I am also a vivid listener of all kinds of music as well, whether it be something acoustic and gentle, like a classical piece, eg. Claude Debussy - Claire De Lune or something head banging like a dubstep track, which is a subgenre of the mother genre, EDM, eg. Excision - The Paradox (From his new album: Virus) I write and produce music in both polar opposite sides of the music spectrum. I have composed classical pieces, as it is what I am used to, as my mother is very heavily into the classical music department, whilst I have also produced songs like the one I had just linked you to, by Excision, as my main focus is with EDM. Recently I have gone into the more melodical spectrum of EDM, focusing more on the two subgenres named, Future Bass and Progressive House. I have really made it my goal to do everything about my music by myself, whether that be creating a new logo, or promotional artwork or making my own original sounds in third party VST's. I have learnt many things from many different people, for the, almost 5 years, of being in this industry. We have become a family, where we support one another, well... Sort of, this topic I will cover in my next post. Regardless, I have learnt a lot from the people who share the same passion for music as I do. Now I can only go up!

I am going to take both my music and writing to the next level. Well I plan to anyways. Whether that be building an audience for both departments who share the same love and passion for the things I do, and to walk with me on the journey rather than to follow behind. I hope this has given you a brief insight of what and who I am. And I hope to see you come back very soon to keep up on my next post!

This has been Sebastian, and I am signing out !

Wow thank you very much ! I shall also be sure to go check out the help guide ! I really do appreciate it a lot !

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with as you take music and your writing to the next level. Music makes a huge difference in your environment and it's important to keep exploring it. My favourite background music to run is pretty much anything that comes up after searching chill dubstep and just listening off youtube. Found you through the @steemisbeautiful post and look forward to being part of your audience. Upvoted and following you.

Thank you very much ! I really appreciate it ! And chill dubstep is always a winner to listen to :D

Welcome to Steemit Sebastian! I hope you will enjoy it as much as I do! :-)
