[wp_ad_camp_2] Hi Artento, first off: thanks for joining Hammarica.com with this interview! Thanks for this interview, always a fun thing to do.

I was not too keen on the beats and build up, so we met on Skype and agreed on making new beats and a renewed drop and presto, Elevation was born. If you could give one production tip insight to new producers out there, what would that be? Just make the kin
