Part time producer full time creator & artist | Ro$aria interview

It’s becoming more and more clear how authentic creativity isn’t bound by the passage of time - it’s not just about a sense of accomplishment, it’s about a sense of release. Enjoyment. Talent. Boredom.

For us & Ro$aria, most definitely.

We’ve currently reached two thousand clicks on Ro$aria’s debut release on Youtube, which wouldn’t mean much to a lot of us, yet with her it is somewhat different. She expected 200. If that.

In this now saturated space of people who are drawn to music for the dancefloor snaps & clicks we want to make clear how much we value authenticity & talent which p

Baun$ & officialnycto.com is a space for these types or conversations.

Tell us about your first track, you’ve said it’s not gone completely invisible.

Yes, my first track is called “Move Interlude” & it’s one of those tracks I decided to release first because it’s my least “experimental” track & definitely more electronic than my future work. But in this context I mean production wise, not sound wise. It’s still just a baby track I had and said “fuck it, lets just go. We keep wanting let’s just go do it.”

What do you mean? Do you experiment often?”

No, not really. It’s never often. I just try to do it with no tutorials as much as possible. Or templates, of course. Or big samples - of course. I want to create based off of what I should make rather than what I vibe with the most out there.

You don’t sample?

I do - if I’m making something for fun then I might not even change it up a lot. I use sounds when the production is for me, for example. As anyone else, you get bored with stock.

What do you do, specifically?

I’m producing for myself & I’ll include some singing to foremost showcase my songwriting abilities. As Ro$aria other than that I might upload some DJ-ing but producing & making full tracks is the goal.

What’s music do you like?

I like a lot of trap, rap, techno, psytrance, afrobeats etc. Any genre I like I tend to gravitate towards the “dark” sounds.

Why DO you not care for financial success off of music?

Possibility of one day selling tracks is still open, other than that, for example monthly listeners isn’t something I work on. I’m a full time artist so maybe that’s why.

I did once care & my original dream was to live off of music & visual art but the more I learned the more I noticed exposure in that way isn’t something I handle well.

Growing on Baun$ & eventually teaming up with other creatives sounds perfect to me.

What’s something you’d be doing if you had more time or for whatever reason you don’t do?

I chose to not do any DJ-ing despite the gear being here with me. I don’t know, I think it’s amazing for people who genuinely want to devote their all to it. Especially to buy tracks & properly “dig” for them. It felt like taking someone else’s dream. Producing & tattooing is more me.

What’s your advice for anyone else who wants to be an artist?

You’re an artist or not. If you can’t do it naturally I wouldn’t necessarily advise to keep wanting without trying. By trying you’ll see if it’s for you or not. If I wasn’t doing what I do I still would’ve sketched, painted my walls, maybe clothes, you know? You have to let it out otherwise it’s like procrastination 3000.

Plus, take care of your mental health - prioritise doing good under almost all means necessary. Nobody can care for you at all times other than yourself.

Is there any tracks you want to share or you prefer to gatekeep?

I don’t really, no.

Just kidding. Of course. You can go to my Spotify to find some more relaxing & daily tracks in my playlist.
