"I've been doing music in some way since elementary school” says :Brownstudy. “Violin, trumpet, piano/keys, electronics, percussion, vocals, etc. Some formal training (classical theory, jazz theory, jazz improv, sight singing/ear training, creative writing), but ultimately relying on my ear & heart." Basically, while the only consistency since primary school for the average person is breathing and gradually putting on weight, :Brownstudy has been training. It's obviously paid off, just listen to our below premiere of "Life Well Lived" for proof. Harking back to A Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul by way of Acid Rap, the track showcases his polyrhythmic talents.
