(Hosted by Patrick Rangel, So Fresh Int; Answered by Dylan McCombs, M.COHMS)
***For future reference, EDM stands for, "Electronic Dance Music."***
Q: How did you first get into music?
A: Well I just really love music so I decided I wanted to make it with my own style and flavor added to it.
Q: Name some of your biggest influences? Musically or otherwise?
A: 2Pac is definitely my biggest musical influence, been listening to him since I can remember. Hopsin is a new influence of mine, I feel he's doing a really good job in the Hip-Hop game and speaks his mind no matter what. My EDM*** influence comes from Datsik, Excision(fellow canadians), Noisia, Dillon Francis, Camo & Krooked, Knife Party, Kill the Noise, Skrillex and there's too many to name all of them. Also, my dad managed RnB singer Montell Jordan for a few years so I know music is in my blood.
Q: What's your favorite part of being involved in music?
A: My favorite part is making a good track and have people that listen to it really feel it, and have a good time with it.
Q:What can fans expect in the horizon for M.COHMS?
A: Well I'm still trying to get all my equipment so I can do full damage on my tracks, but I'm expecting to have it all by the end of 2013. Until then, I am going to release previews and clips of what I'm working on. By late 2013-early 2014, my first official EP (Cohms Law: Back 2 BassKix) will be released.
Q: How is the music scene like in British Columbia?
A: It's awesome, I've really noticed how popular EDM is in all of Canada. I also feel like Canada has a lot of potential for really good producers and other artists.
Q: We've talked before and you mentioned you wanted to better your career in music through school. What are you plans with that?
A: Well I am going to attend a graphic design diploma course at a college here in Nelson, BC. After that, I am going to take an audio engineering course in Kelowna. I am hoping to start my own independent EDM/Hip Hop record label after I complete school with the help of some other underground artists.
Q: What makes M.COHMS so different/unique compared to an electronic artist such as Bassnectar?
A: What makes me unique is my wierd style. I really like mixing a Hip-Hop feel with every track I make even if it's EDM.
Q: How do you go about making tracks/beats?
A: I usually just start with one noise and see what kind of melodies I can make, and then I go from there. Doesn't always work like that though.
Q: For those us who don't know, please explain what Drumstep is.
A: I feel drumstep is a cross between Dubstep and Drum and Bass. The drum patterns are similar to Dubstep but I usually use a tempo between 150(bpm) and 170 instead of 140. Also when making a drumstep track, I use less hats and filler instruments than I would use for Drum and Bass.
Q: Lastly is there anything you'd like to add?
A: Keep an Eye and an Ear out for M.COHMS.
