Question for phuture (artist) : How did you get the idea to make a collective and why?
Answer: It started when I, synchronistic, started hearing these great tracks that weren’t getting the recognition they received. The most logical thing to do at that point, was create a platform for all of those sounds, so other people could be as inspired as I. Some of my favorite tracks have less than thousands of plays. We’ve all got our own love and ears, but since I personally have those favorite songs, you personally do too… and the other 10 people that suggest reposts on a daily basis. It started with that, and now, I do this because it’s a ‘we’, as a collective. We all have our voices and opinions and ideas, and together we’re able to turn them into reality. Our next big task is to put our tracks collectively on a platform that can outlast soundcloud. We’ll use the same platform, our website, to grow closer via communication & collaboration. We’ve got goals & we see the love and inspiration that is being created, and that is what keeps us doing what we do.

Question: When was the moment you decided that producing was right for you?
Answer: For 6 years I was playing jazz. This year I was hanging out with one of my friends and he wanted me to make something on garage band to compare against a trap beat he made. I got the mobile app, went home and got to work. The next day he told me what I made was really good. I started doing it more often and a little while later, I made D R E / M E R.
