This is the Solo Project of Singer / Songwriter / Composer / Soundscape Designer / Music Programmer - Drew Master Jay - Lately I have been composing exclusively using the ACID PRO 6 music platform and I have an extensive library of loops and samples on my .04 terrabyte external hard drive that I can call on. My vocals are all recorded with my RODE PODCASTER usb microphone. - UPDATE 27-07-09 - I have two projects that I am very excited about at the moment. The first involves my original composition "You drive me wild" which I posted onto "Soundcloud". I uploaded all the loops and vocals that were used in the tune and invited any re-mix artists to do a version for me. I have two on display already. One from Logan Townsend, a very talented artist from Baton Rouge, Louisiana (The Dirty South) USA. His stage name is (The Kali Co.). I think the re-mix he has done (which is downloadable) can't be bettered, however, Ben Baylor - (Snakeboy) a fantastic Producer/DJ out of Monticello, Florida, USA has just sent me his own mind bending re-mix of "You drive me Wild". His live DJ experience has given my tune an insane dance floor vibe that is unmistakably NOW. It's over 8 minutes long and is truly entrancing from the get go. the Vocoder work is out of this world. I never thought my voice could sound so metallic and Terminator and Transformer like. Optimus Prime eat ya metal heart out. Thanks again Ben. The second project that I am very excited about is with Reverbnation. They have come up with this unique idea of teaming up with global brands and pairing them with unsigned and independant artist's such as myself. My original composition entitled "Whatcha gonna do" is now part of that promotion (and is also available for download) on the link within my Reverbnation music player. I think it's a great way to get my music "out there". UPDATE 26-04-09 - My latest collaboration has been with Sana Kalesi. She is from Shiraz, Iran and is a supurb poet. She asked me to put one of her poems to music which I did. It's called "Rain for Sana. - UPDATE 11-10-08 - Most recently I have collaborated with the new female global singing sensation "Cher Andt". Cher's voice evokes the mystery of Bjork and the frailty of Avril Lavigne. We just completed the tune "You got me" Parts (1) and (2) also "Don't take that road" and "Sleepless". All four trax are getting a lot of inerest and downloads. - UPDATE 08-08-08 - Alfred Unroe sent me a remix he did of my track "Face your love". He asked for my vocal wav file and some of the loops which I used to create the track. He has created a completely different animal to the one I did. It's fantastic. It's crisp, fresh, sparce and very dancable. Previously I completed another collaboration with "Alfred Unroe" who was at the time residing in Nagoya, Japan. Alfred REMIXED my "It's not too late you know" tune to create a very sweet extended dance floor remix.

I'm very sorry for my very long absence. I haven't been online over for 2 months. I apologize for that. Life is keeping me busy but I am OK. I haven't forgotten you in the least. I have been thinking of you. How about you? I think you have been busy and happy.
Thank you very much for your adorable comments. Your support means a lot to me.
I'm sorry but I cannot put any graphics because of my PC's problems.
a hero is someone that the world perceives as ordinary but who is doing something extraordinary to make a difference and help others in life; my friends are my heroes in life for to me they are more than ordinary, they are beautiful and extraordinary for all they have overcome in life and for the compassion and kindness they show to others, for having a heart of gold that shines through and for making the most of their lives as they take the time to reach out to others and encourage, inspire and motivate them as they take them by the hand and walk down life's road with them, letting them know they are not alone; thank you for being a hero to me and to others out there and know that just by being you, you have touched the hearts of many around you, making a difference in their lives and giving them hope to keep fighting and moving on
Hi DMJ, Thank you for checking my stuff and of course, that's NOT about my real life!! if it was i wouldn't be here on myspace, writing poems.. i would be sleeping under bridges. but that's a different 4 stories from 4 different persons talking about thier life so each verse saying "my life", i have heard from people around the world.. and about grammer and stuff, you know english isn't my first tongue and i only write short time ago plus i wanted to make it sound like it's coming from ignorant people who has no education so he/she doesn't know anything about grammer and it's Rap lyrics. so thank you once again :) you know when a professional musician like you say "pretty good" it made me feel happy and honored.
I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS AND THAT NO MATTER WHAT I HAVE BEEN THROUGH THERE ARE ALWAYS PEOPLE WORSE OFF THAN MYSELF AND THAT IS THE ONLY WAY I CAN LOOK AT IT!!!
