Throw Back On Starting Origins

KHRIS AIDEN (@khrisaiden)

Music Producer & DJ

Tell us about yourself .

I produce music/DJ in my free time.

Take us back to where your story started.

I started producing music about five years ago. It was a significant moment in my life as it was getting difficult to play or create music in a band as people were beginning to have bigger commitments in life.

Who are the biggest supporters in your journey?

My friends and other local musicians I’ve met throughout the years. They push me to constantly improve and eventually find the kind of music that I heavily identify myself with.

What is one thing you would tell your younger self who is just starting out?

Don’t be afraid to try new things even if it means failing. I’m all up for new experiences now!

What does it mean to you to have an origin?

To me, having an origin is to have a constant thing I stand for that stems from experiences growing up. I think it is important as it is what people associate me with, which creates my identity.

How do you maintain your originality as a creative?
