Diving Deep w/ WonkyWilla and Ghost Lotus
1. How did you decide to get into making music? Was there a certain event in your childhood/life that made you stop and realize that you wanted to pursue a career in music?
“Very specifically, watching Skrillex from the fence at Made in America Festival 2012 in Philadelphia, PA. I was about 12 years old at the time and just discovered the idea of dubstep and electronic music. Watching from the other side of a fence I knew I had to be here and that I had discovered my dream.” -WonkyWilla
“So I actually have zero musical background, but decided to start producing music after a few years in college when I realized I was not fit to sit in an office and work a 9-5.” -Ghost Lotus
2. Being an artist in the spotlight, you have a continuously growing impact on your fanbase and the scene. Due to the nature of this, have you had any fan interactions that have particularly hit home for you as an artist, and why?
“I have had people come from long distances to catch my set and get the opportunity to meet. Really means so much that the WonkyWilla project inspires others as that it’s a big part and goal of mine.” -WonkyWilla
“This past Halloween I had someone come up to me after my set and take a picture with me, as well as tell me how they love watching my progress as an artist. That was cool because I didn’t realize people were actually paying attention.” -Ghost Lotus
3. As an artist, you can experience a number of roadblocks along the way to achieving your goals. What motivates you to continue to be creative and make music even when times get tough?
4. What has been the biggest lesson you’ve learned since you started making music? Do you have any words of wisdom for aspiring producers hoping to follow in your footsteps?
“The biggest lesson I have learned is the importance of patience as well as continuing to work hard. You can’t expect yourself to dive in and be able to get it instantly. Making music is a never-ending learning experience which can be the most beautiful — bus also frustrating — thing about it. With dedication and hard work, you will continue to progress on this infinite journey.” -WonkyWilla
“The toughest lesson I’ve learned so far is that you are going to be broke af for a long time. Dedicating your life to making art a career is the biggest risk, with the biggest reward. The number one thing I always tell new producers is to keep going, don’t give up, and focus on yourself.” -Ghost Lotus
