We all need a little convincing when trying something new. Discovery is such a wonderful thing, especially when you discover a new DJ who produces and spins hip-hop and house music. Here are three factoids to a dj/producer on the underground scene.
1. He’s from New Jersey.
The Garden State produced some the most talented artists in music across all genres. Growing up in South Jersey LARONN F captured all the sounds and vibes from a plethora of cultures. His mother met his father dj’ing a BBQ in the summer.
“I suppose that’s where my love of music starts and the love of being around music.”
2. He’s an African American doing house music.
House music rose to prominence from Chicago’s African American music community and then changed into its many forms and sub genres. The history of African American culture using music to serve as a space for community and self-development while also promoting rational and radical political ideology continues with electronic music.
"There’s a song I produced where I sampled a Dr. Amos Wilson speech which he gives societal and cultural commentary on the impact of music to the collective mind of the masses. It’s my attempt on making thought-provoking music.”
3. He creates music just for you.
LARONN F produces a kind of light and frothy brand of house music, not the hard and crunchy EDM type. There’s a certain energy and emotion that you can truly feel deep-down in your musical soul. His deep house grooves are known to have a melodic pulse and a heartbeat that flows through the bloodstream, not pulverizing the brain. The music elevates your mood. His DJ mixes and playlists makes for an enjoyable run and exercise regiment. The laid back tracks are cool to listen to while studying.
“Music is the wallpaper to life. I want to make music you can listen to in any place, doing any activity. It’s you and the music fitting perfectly together.”
