| I mix my own beats.
So I've been reading threads about submitting music supplements and how I shouldn't consider doing it unless it's studio ready and whatnot. Well, I spend a lot of time in downtown Chicago with my cousin who's big in the underground rap scene and so I've picked up turntables and messed around a lot for the last four years. It's something I love doing, and I have mixtapes and CDs all over the place of beats I've made...some that have been used in live performances by Chicago artists. Besides writing, it's probably my biggest hobby/passion though I've been kinda iffy about talking about it in my application. Do you think it's worth my time submitting some of my work? I don't know how appreciative Columbia music department would be of hiphop/beat mixing haha. I can PM you samples if you're interested, too.
Thanks!
