Who is The Ramon ?

This weeks Artist Spotlight is The Ramon ⭐

Where are you based?

I was born in Manila, Philippines but I moved to Los Angeles, California in 2005.

How did you first get into music?

I came from a household of music lovers so I was exposed to different genres of music at an early age. When I was 8 years old, I didn’t have access to the internet so for me to get the lyrics of a song, I would stop and play my cassette player and write down the lyrics. I realized, I could actually write my own if I had a minus one. (A song with just the instrumentals) (90’s era)

Do you play any instruments?

I don’t have patience learning so I suck at playing the guitar.

Describe your music style

My style is mostly full of emotional wordplays with an alternative rock vibes but with an rnb flow. I guess it stems from the variety of influences I’ve had growing up. It’s like a collection of my father’s vinyls, my sister’s Spotify playlist and everything in between lol

Who are you favorite artists?

This has always been a hard question for me since my musical tastes evolved over the years. I guess the most influential would be The Beatles, Incubus, Seven Lions, Above & Beyond, Coldplay, Adventure Club, Craig David, Slander, RL Grime, and Paramore because of Hayley Williams. I think she has the most beautiful vocals I’ve ever heard in my life and her songwriting is top tier

Who would your dream music collaboration be with?

Slander & Seven Lions would be my dream collab!

What are your favorite VST / Synths or programs in general to use when producing your music?

I identify as topline songwriter and vocal producer before anything so I stay in my lane and leave the producing to our talented producers. As a topliner, I create the vocal melodies, harmonies and lyrics for a producer’s track / beats and I work with my sound engineer at the studio to record. I dabble w/ Fl Studio from time to time but then again, I don’t have the patience or time. I only produce vocals, melodies and lyrics.

What interests or hobbies do you have outside of music?

My first love is basketball and second is combat sports. I used to train MMA but fell more in love with boxing 8 years ago. I’m a boxing instructor as a side hustle and my mentor is Coach Marvin Somodio from Wildcard gym. I’m also an avid boxing fan! I also love going to music festivals! I attend about 6-8 festivals a year but currently slowed down since I franchised a fastfood venture w/ my siblings! It’s called Potato Corner at Haven City Market in Rancho Cucamonga here in California. We will be open in October! Come visit! 😄
