meet: LAKEY INSPIRED

What are you doing at this very moment [besides this interview]?
I am editing photos! Check out my insta 😉 @lakeyinspired

You’ve got this sound that is nostalgic, bittersweet and euphoric. Does your mood directly correlate to each piece you put out? As difficult as this question may be, what has been your greatest difficulty translating emotions to music?
Yes. I wouldn’t say it’s difficult though.
I don’t force it. I just kind of sit down and create whatever comes to me.

Do genres define or limit us?
Both.

DAW of choice?
Logic X!

Why do you produce and what keeps you going?
It’s the best feeling to create a piece of music that I really like. Being able to play it back and enjoy it, just thinking like “wow, I made this” is really special.
Curiosity keeps me going.

We haven’t heard much about Chandler. What is it like there, and how is the music scene?
It’s miserable in the summer. Like 115 outside haha. But we have some great sushi spots and good skate parks. As far as the music scene goes, I don’t know much about it. That’s why I am so thankful for the Internet and platforms like soundcloud. You can get your music heard all around the world and be doing it from home. It’s a great time to be alive.

Thoughts of The Law of Attraction?
It’s crazy you ask that. I’m really into it.
I just got the book not to long ago. I really believe that you get what you focus on.
You can really do anything. Find your wings..

Where do you see yourself 1 year from now? 2 years? 5 years?
Still making music, just growing my reach. I am also working on my own visuals to go along with all my music! YouTube coming soon.

If we go to Chandler will you tell us all the hotspots?

Yessir.

What four songs have been the most influential to where you’ve gotten today?
Tyler the creator – She.
The Internet – Shadow Dance
Pharrell – Frontin
Evil needle – So fly

What can we expect from you in the future? Perhaps an upcoming EP or album?
EP for sure!
