Today in our interview section we have a talented music artist Danjul with us. Let’s have a chat with him.

Twist Online : First of all tell us about the start of your professional career?
Danjul : I started pursuing music in 2008 finding producers to demo me and build my craft. I was very new and didn’t know if I had talent lol until I met my producer Matthew Nelson in 2010 and he saw something in me nobody else did. I wrote my own songs and did my own vocal melodies. Plus I already knew how every song should sound and feel like….Matthew was the only one who understood me and he helped create my unique sound.

Twist Online : Who or what inspired you to get into music industry?
Danjul : I always was determined, growing up I self taught myself how to dance, write, and sing…my parent didn’t have money to put me into classes. But watching artist like MJ, Brandy, Justin Timberlake inspired me. I heard a lot of bad things on the “business” side of the industry but I was always drawn to the idea of sharing your talent to inspire others.

Twist Online : You released a CD a couple of months ago titled ‘ Origin of times ‘. Tell us a little about that. Any particular track from the CD that’s your favorite??

It was suppose to be one song but it ended up being a passion “Dark Disney” vibe project with Matt and I..it took me 3 years to complete due to personal and insecurities but it’s done! And available for FREE on SoundCloud. It’s very difficult to say which is my favorite because I put so much into all of them. There all very different and very special to me.

Twist Online : What kind of response you have received from the release?
