About this project
Due to my inability to play any musical instrument, the idea is to use apps to make very good music. My aim is to become an authority or a household name in the music industry. I intend to open the eyes of other people like me who have settled with various reasons why they should never pursue their dreams. I'm very creative I have written lots of poems and songs before now hence I think it's time to take it to the next level. I have a Masters degree in Arts Design & Humanity; I'm UK-Based!
Dear Aburo,
My name is Lori Tosan and I am the Features Co-editor for 3M360 MAGAZINE We love your video are would like to run a story about you!
What is your name, background and education?
My name is Oluwatobi Paul Martins (ABURO) and I am a yorubA (Aburoy) u from Ogun/Ondo State. I was born in Lagos and lived there till 1999 when I had to relocate to Abuja with my parents. In 2010, after my NYSC I moved to UK to further my studies. I am a Graduate of Architecture from the Rivers State University of Science and Technology, Port Harcourt and also a Post Graduate of Design Management from De Montfort University, Leicester, UK.
2. Talk about your incline to music?
I am an aspiring performing artiste with performance ranging from music, acting, writing, directing and designing - the arts in general. I'm a talented and educated interesting lad full of innovation and creativity. I thrive when good things play on air but of recent years, a lot of air plays have not gone down with me a good way. I cherish good contents, conceptual materials, professional output, qualitative listening, morals and fun. These are the things I hardly find in most of the songs I hear these days - HEAR, not listen!
3. How did you get into music?
It started a little over a decade ago when I realized most of the songs I liked are usually in the first albums of a new artist and just when I expect to hear something good in their next albums, I'm often always disappointed. That was when I thought to only play the first albums instead but when I realized I was getting board, I started writing mine instead.
Secondly, I am already really tired of hearing repetitive concepts/styles/sounds and I believe I have the right dash of colors to spark things up.
I originally started with creative writing - poetry/poems/proses/stories/articles. I decided to go into singing after I'd completed my studies and gained solid and profound ideologies ranging from the range of genres I listen to (NOT HEAR), the places/culture I visit and multi-cultured people I meet locally and internationally.
4. Talk about genres of songs and few good artistes you listen to?
I listen to Reggae, Afro Range, RnBs, RnB Hip Hop, Pop Rock, Indie Rock, Soft Jazz, Alternative/Neo/Southern Soul, and Classical. I love Pharrell Williams, Banky W, Justin Timberlake, Dare Art Alade, Amy Winehouse, Norah Jones, Asa, Alicia Keys, Maroon 5, Muse, Bez, Linking Park, R. Kelly, Wizkid, Boyz II Men, Maxwell, M.I, Ed Sheeran, Emili Sandé, P-Square among others.
4. What inspires you?
I don't write/create when I am - obviously - in a really low or high state of mind. That explains why a lot of artistes don't produce better things after that first initial stage when everything gets steady and good. For me, innovation and creativity is a part of me. I exhume concepts and ideologies all the time. I am not one to acquaint with inferior trends. At same time, I am very much aware if my beginning as I am willing to learn a lot much as I am ready to give so much.
