In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. When my brother and I were kids, we used to record ourselves singing and playing music onto a cassette recorder; not much has changed since then. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Front Line Assembly, Plasticity - EP Metallica, Master of Puppets RAISE A SUILEN, A DECLARATION OF ××× - Single Metallica was the band that inspired me to pick up the guitar and become a musician. Years later, Front Line Assembly inspired me to pick up a synthesizer...and more recently, RAISE A SUILEN inspired me to put it all together and make it more fun. 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. “SUPERNOVA (ver.1.2)” Of all the songs I've written, this one is probably my favorite. In addition to being very upbeat and energetic, it has a very positive message about staying true to yourself and making an impact in the world.
