Jarren Crist

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. From a very early age I received toy keyboards and drums and found myself enraptured with creating my own original songs on them or trying to play songs I knew by ear, which was a start of a lifelong interest in music composition. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Aphex Twin, Drukqs Brian Eno, Ambient 1: Music for Airports Nine Inch Nails, The Downward Spiral Explicit Version These three albums represent some of my favorite production work of all time, both on a technical level as well as compositional, and will forever be a big influence on what I make both emotionally and sonically. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Silver Dream” This is a deep cut but my song "Silver Dream" stems from a composition I wrote as a child/ in my early teens. It was a very simplistic song but meant a lot to me at the time, I recreated it in my young adulthood which is what you're hearing here. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? The memories I will always treasure are the opportunities I've had to compose music for indie games throughout the years, and just the fact that my music is heard by strangers from all over the world through the games themselves. It blows my mind! Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? If I vanished today or stopped making music I could say I was happy with the opportunities I had and extremely thankful for the projects I was a part of. As far as bucket list items go, maybe someday doing something with a game series I'm a fan of!
