How have you developed since you started with the music? I started small with a taste for the drums, when I first hear bands that play very fast and aggressive, I said, I want to play, I taught myself to play, starting with basic sounds, then I start to see that my speed increases, Is when I enter a punk band, fast.Nowadays my rhythms are more structural, more rocknroll, we have fast songs, others with sounds more calm and more studied.
Are you looking for a label, and what are your thoughts around that? We do not look for a label, unfortunately in my country, to put a label, is to put the rope to the neck, we look for variety of rhythms attached to the punk, hardcore, rocknroll, to go in search of a unit like scene.

What do you think about people downloading music instead of buying records now a days? On the one hand is good and on the other is wrong. Is bad because as a musician you do not get any benefit for all the work you did. But it's okay because the music you make can get more easily to other places outside your country. And I personally prefer that my music sounds wherever.
How do you think the music industry have changed because of this? Economically speaking, changed a lot, many only do it to earn money, do not make the right effort, make sounds without feeling, so I think that in the day we do not have a new METALLICA.
