With a music genre thats spans all types, Chaz can play the tuba, the bass,electric guitar, the harmonica, the pan flute, a lil bit of keys(production based), the turntables and manage to do all while Beatboxing at the same time. He was born in Plantation Florida, into a Christian Puerto Rican family where music was a daily aspect of his life. His music career started at the age of 12 playing the trumpet but was halted by the addition of braces. He decided to switch to the tuba, which changed his life forever. One day after practicing his tuba, Chaz was watching the old school movie "Crush Groove", when he heard some vocal percusion by Buff of the Fat Boys and was enthralled by what he heard and made the effort to teach himself how to do such an interesting skill. The hardest thing for Chaz was the kick drum sound do to his braces, but to no prevail he figured it out while playing his tuba at school. On his attempt to play a loud not, he reallised that he had created just that sound he was looking for. The sound of a kick drum came out of his lips, and a beatboxer was born.
The Main types of genre's thats produced by Chaz go from, Funk, Hip Hop, Breaks, To Drum & Bass and Ambient. With artist influences like Doug E. Fresh, Buff, Rahzell, KRS ONE, Portishead, Jay Dee, Victor Wooten, and the art of Jazz to complete his creativity.
He mainly stays in the Orlando Florida area, but use to reside in Newark Delaware, where he did most of his experimental music. He was Beatboxing and did a lil engineering in a band called "The Truth" for a bit who's main perogitive was just to jam and perfect there music through coming together and creating their own atmosphere.
