Hey Bro, I first wanted to start by thanking you for coming on and interviewing with Nefarious Supply, so to get the interview started let’s talk about you. So who is Silence Land tell us about yourself and what got you into music production?

Thank you for inviting and interview me and being apart of this wonderful platform. To start things off, silence is my name and I really just birthed that name from my personality and my social activity. Iʼm really just a silent person all around and iʼm a very private person all around. I got into music a long time ago, I was writing in my journals and just started writing raps and in late 2016 I started producing but music runs in my family.

Where are you from and how has this area had an impact on you, your style of production, and your overall aesthetic? 

I come from a very small neighborhood in east Houston and it really motivates me to go harder and focus on my craft rather than competing with everyone, I just put in a lot of work so I can take my sound across the world while sticking to and honouring my roots.

How would you best describe your aesthetic to someone who wants to work with you? 

Iʼm a very positive person so iʼm always available to work with anyone and I always approach anyone and everyone with a spiritual and a supportive mindset.

So let's talk music man your name first popped up on our radar because of the production work you did for Omari Night’s latest single “Nasty”, how did you and Omari meet and what led to you guys working together? 

Well, I do a lot of networking and I heard his music from a friend and sent him a message and we basically went from there and made nasty with him and jxdy hill and I produced it with Tenroc. Me and Omari have more music on the way too.

What other artists have you worked with, and how has your experience been so far as an underground producer? 

Iʼve worked a couple of artists so far and as far as being an underground producer, I really love it, I love being silent and private because itʼs makes people wonder and keep guessing who and what I am and also makes me feel very happy because I manage and control everything I do, so I really love being underground and independent for myself and setting my own routines and schedules.

What are some things you look for in artists before you decide to work with them? 

I love artists who have passion and love for music and the craft of it rather than making music for money, and I look for artists who are dedicated to do music forever and have fun with it.  Also, I love artists who can produce, engineer, mix, write and create their own music as well so it gives them an advantage for the world to know who they are.

Bro so I gotta say your SoundCloud is full of heat each one of your songs production is on point, walk us through your creative process from start to finish and how do you know when you have a finished product? 

Well, as I said earlier, I was born into a musical family so it just becomes natural when making music and knowing when the product is done. I make music from emotion so I only produce 1-5 beats a day depending on the emotion iʼm going through or how iʼm feeling that day. Sometimes I donʼt make any beats, I just brainstorm and create ideas of what music iʼm going to create when I feel like making it and when I do that, my music comes out the way I want it and thatʼs my workflow and how I go about making music.

What artists or producers have influenced your production style, and what about their sound made you look up to them? 

Preferably, I wouldnʼt say influenced but iʼm very inspired by Partynextdoor and Travis Scott because I connect with them and their music but aftertheparty is my new favorite artist/ producer, the way he produces his music, the melodies that he composes and the way he uses effects on his vocal chains is what made me draw inspiration from him. Music today is lacking substance and emotion but with his music, and Partynextdoor and Travis Scott actually make you feel like you were there when they tell their stories through their words and lyricism but their production alone brings you to a dimension in a magical way so thatʼs why I draw inspiration from them.

So whatʼs next for you what are some of your goals for 2020?

I just want to keep working on music and share my sound across the world so other people can draw inspiration from what I do and make them want to achieve anything and everything they want to in life, thatʼs my soul mission and life goal.

Any last words? 

Be you. Do what you love and donʼt give up on yourself too easy because nobody is going to get you where you want to go. Go out and do what you love to do and have no regrets. And in the words of the great Nipsey Hussle, the highest human act is to inspire.
