I Started when i think i was 12, it was 3 years ago which would be 2016 ... actually i remember that i always loved playing the piano and making beats, i wrote a song with a old midi when i was 5-6 and wrote a poem when a was 4 (trust me, you dont wanna hear it) but i officially started it 3 years ago.

I made my first beat around 18 but I didnt get to serious with it because I was a emcee but when i got serious with it I was 25 of age making beats

I'm 26 (1992), started playing the guitar at 14 or 15, started recording at 17 (mostly acoustic guitar + vocals, I can kind of sing). I had "non classical" training and my former guitar teacher is a vocalist/ mixing engineer (quite successful at the latter). I stopped taking lessons at 18, when I went to college and started playing the mandolin at our college's "tuna" (look it up) for about 1 and 1/2 years. Late into my 20th year of existence I started making beats and I'd say last year I started producing lol.
I thoroughly regret not taking an interest in production earlier as my teacher wanted me to learn to mess with Logic in a rock scenario (recording and mixing acoustic tracks and in band environment). I only got through the acoustic recording phase since I had no interest in mixing and finding a drummer here is about as easy as finding a cheap internet provider so I basically just wrote a couple of songs, recorded them and let him work his magic instead of going the hard way and learning what he was doing myself. Funny how life goes sometimes..

I started back in 2006 at 18 so over 10 years ago. Im 30 now... I started out of the necessity to need beats, back then while in college at Tuskegee University, it was hard to be able to get producers to even give me a shot with their production. Out of necessity I went and bought my first DAW which was Reason and Ive been at it ever since... Although I've stepped away from the forefront and went behind the scenes, I feel that move out of determination got me to where I am today.
