Q. Hey Hayshun it’s a pleasure to sit down and chop it up with you how’s everything going ?
A. Everything is good! Quarantine has got me a little bored but it gave me the time to learn new things like playing some songs on piano and experiment on beats.
SOUNDS BY HAYSHUN
Q. Cool so tell us alittle about yourself?
A. Well I’m an American born from Haitian parents but I lived in Haiti for most of my life up until 2018. I absolutely love music doesn’t matter what genre, and I love video games and cartoons.
Q: What got you started in making beats?
A: I’ve always been fascinated by music since I was very young and I’ve always been focused on the beats and not the words like people tend to gravitate to. I would always beatbox at random times, bang on tables with my friends and one day in 2016 me and my best friend Wavy SZN just clicked and decided to look into music production software and the rest is history
Q: Who inspires you musically ?
A: There’s too many to pick from but my main inspirations are Future, Southside, jetsonmade, Young Thug and Pop Smoke. RIP Pop
Q: What are your influences in your beat making process.
Do you mainly like to focus on trap beats or does
it depend on your mood and what you’re feeling at the moment?
A: Honestly my music doesn’t derive from my mood, if it sounds good I’ll try and make it. I’ve made trap beats, soul beats, boom bap beats, afro beats. I used to copy other producers and have my personal sound come from that but eventually I realized it’s more effective to create your own sound. Lately I gravitate more towards melodic trap beats.
Q: Favorite rapper ?
A: I would say my all time favorite is Future but right now it’s Lil Uzi Vert
Q: Who is your top 5 dead or alive ? can be rappers and producers and tell me why you chose these 5
A: My Top 5 is probably Future, Young Thug, Lil Uzi Vert, Metro Boomin, Southside. All of them have MASSIVELY contributed to the mainstream sound that everybody today tries to replicate nowadays
Q: What artists are you listening to as we speak ?
A: Gunna, Lil Keed, Lil Gotit, Future, Pop Smoke, Lil Baby, Lil Uzi Vert, Travis Scott among many other artists big or small.
Q: Where do you see yourself in five years from now musically?
A: Honestly I don’t know, im just going with the flow and making sure I don’t quit. The one thing I really want is to live off of my art.
Q: How often do you make beats?
A: Everyday! Even if I miss a day I’ll compensate for it the following day.
Q: Where can our viewers check out and buy your beats at?
A: People can find me on Instagram @1hayshun, on Youtube “Hayshun” and visit my beatstore at traktrain.com/hayshun !
