ACXLE

Picture

about acxle

​My artist name is acxle. I am currently working on a new jazz-hop track (called "Masked"!).

I started writing music at about 4-5, after I found myself playing around for hours on a keyboard my parents bought. As of now, my inspirations come from everywhere, from performances I go to, to music on the radio, to images that speak to me...there's an "Inspiration" playlist on my Soundcloud page that I share publicly so that people can see where my style comes from.

For the most part, my creative process starts with me picturing a scene (from a real movie, or just completely imagined). I then mess around until I find a suitable chord progression to follow. Opening a new project, I always start with a basic group of instruments that appear in almost every one of my tracks. I find a drum pattern that I like, then start improvising melodies, accompaniments, etc. Unfortunately, I am an artist on a budget and all of my sounds come from built-in software instruments and plug-ins; however, hopefully in the future I'll get the chance to expand the tools I work with.

Right now, I am a college student, so I do put studies first. However, when I get bored, or need to take a break, I slowly add on more and more to ongoing projects, or spend my time watching movies, dramas, etc. for inspiration.

Even though I'm not exactly an experienced or well-known artist, I can say that it's been a pretty long journey for me as a producer. From where I stand now, I think that what kept me on this path was my passion for music, and that I do not make music as a job or for fame. I also started with 0 followers, 0 subs, 0 listens, but I knew that one day I would be able to share my music with more and more people. So enjoy making music!
