About Me

Around the age of eight or nine, Randall Brown, an anything but average youngster, residing with his mother Janice and his father, Arnold Brown, received an welcoming gift for a christmas that would send a spark which would later start an undying passion for music. Who could have imagined his first keyboard, a concert mate 470A, would inspire a lifetime career choice for a young mind.
cruising the town daily in his ford escort wagon, while beats blaring out his vehicle, eventually he caught the attention of some local artist who showed interest in his productions. By the time he was 20, Randall was obsessed with producing and burned several cd-roms weekly from his Gateway PC with a copy of FL Studio.. Unlike most aspiring producer/songwriter/singers,Randall Brown has been mostly building his craft to satisfaction and bumping the bar which has recently been set higher with the addition of new mixtapes and solo artist bidding for production.
The pressure is on and he intends on answering his critics with a distinct sound and feeling like no other. From the time he started his obsessive late night producing into the early a.m. hours on school nights, Randall never has doubted his musical talent for expressing emotions through his music, a feeling that one can almost jump into the song is often the reaction from someone hearing a production of his for the first time. As time progressed, the quality of the songs and production of his material improved and matured. Due to the constant seeking of knowledge Randall has gained almost all of his engineering know-how from experimenting and reading internet articles on tips and tricks.
The use of live instruments, acoustic guitar, Yamaha YPT-300, Samson C01U Studio Condenser Microphone, FL STUDIO PRODUCER EDITION 5-6, Sound Forge, Acid Pro, Adobe Audition, Cakewalk pro, and personal assortments of custom recorded hand/oral made kicks, claps, snaps, etc. and playing several instruments "by ear"- amongst a few to mention the Yamaha YPT -300 being a modest beginners keyboard of choice- Randall Brown has managed to become a highly sought after producer.
At the age of 21, attending community college, fueled by the lack of inspiration and career opportunity in southside Virginia, Randall applied to VCU. Randall currently at the age of 22 attends Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Virginia.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 9/30/2006
Band Website: gotbeatsz.tripod.com
Band Members: GotbeatszProducer
Influences: Artist/Producers such as Kanye West, Ryan Leslie, Just Blaze, B. Cox, Babyface are just a few of my idols. Seeing that the reality of achieving success under such diverse backgrounds make the dream that much closer of a reality for an aspiring producer like myself.
Sounds Like: The sound a Producer/Musician has is his/her trademark. Having a trademark sound is what often times sets one apart from his counterpart. The ultimate achievement for me would most definitely be to have listeners able to differentiate my composition from any other sound out there in the industry. Much like the instance a new song by your favorite artist comes on and you start to nod your head to the beat and almost instantaneously say to yourself "That sounds like something "Kanye" would do..."
Record Label: unsigned
