So 'sup?
First of all my name is Aïrto. I was born on the 13th of October '85... I loved music ever since I was little, I grew up with music of all styles. I re-discovered music when I was about 16 years-old. Going way back in time, listening to music that kids nowadays wouldnt usually think of listening too... Think about the buttery voice of Donny Hathaway and the undeniable singing and composing talents of Mr. Wonder. I realised while listening to some of the memorable songs that I started improvising to the beats and melodies, change it up, sing harmonies and sometimes play some extra's on my cheap old keyboard... This helped me create my own style.
I'm floating in between soul and rnb. I love the true sound of music. No overpolished studio voices, I want too hear the rawness. Nowadays it's all about pitch correcting and about the image an artist has... I never had any musical training so I lukcily i still feel raw and unpolished.
There are two projects I have been working on in the past...
I'm featured on a cd called 'Bezigheidstherapie' - P-Yott
I also worked on a project with Belgium hiphop duo Nuff Said, I helped them on the musical/beat aspect...Make sure to check out their myspace to enjoy some good Hiphop.
Catching up on all the great songs you have done. Your voice is as beautiful as the first day I heard it. I have a request for a song. I don't know if it is your style normally but I think you could do some wonderful things with it vocally and stylistically by putting your soul to it. The song is "Selfless, Cold & Composed" By Ben Folds Five. Take care my friend and I look forward to hearing your next beautiful rendition of a song.
I found out about you from your cover of Drake's Best I Ever Had, and I'm SO glad that I did...
Your voice is amazing and refreshing and comforting all at the same time, especially during this tragic time in the music industry. Thanks for making music worth listening to, I really enjoy it. Keep it up!
