Snarl is a 17-year-old producer who is lighting up dance music with tracks more at home in Ibiza rather than his native Essex. In fact his debut was named after the famed island of dance dreams, and more recent releases have led him to be labelled as dance music’s saviour. And it all stems from making tracks on an online DAW called Soundation…
1 Tell us how you got into music production in the first place?
Snarl: “My family seems to have always had an association with making music and I guess I caught that gene too. All genres of music have influenced me, from Muse to Daft Punk and that eclectic mix definitely had seeped into the music that I make now. At high school, I had a great music and arts teacher who encouraged me to experiment with an online music production tool, Soundation, where you could use loops to create your own tracks and upload them to Youtube or SoundCloud. I loved it and mastered it really quickly, and looked at other production tools I could start to use and found FL Studio, begging my parents to buy it for me! I spent hours that led to months that led to years honing a sound that I could call my own and that was how Snarl was born. The name is so representative of my music, especially the darker, heavy tracks.”
2 When did you start to feel you were getting somewhere”?
S: “It’s still early days for me as an artist, but I’ve been lucky enough to meet and work with some incredible people who have been part of the music industry for a long time. Now I have a great team around me who allow me to develop under the Snarl name and style. Once I started developing my skills and honing my craft with a good team around me, I knew that I had the drive to make a success of the opportunities.”
