Interview with Eli Limaj

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: 'Learning To Love Me' composed by Miles Kridech is a track I am proud of because it came from an authentic place in my heart. When I listen to the song stirs great reflection of where I have been and my expected going...and best believe...I am certainly going mainstream one day. I do enjoy collaboration, but do not miss your opportunity to work with me. I am surely next for mainstream and wish to create new stories with as many writers, beat-makers and producers as possible.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: An alternative project with some friends from college who studies alongside me in Sound Design.
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: I am honestly not yet experienced enough with Soundbetter to refer you to anyone else other than myself.
Q: Analog or digital and why?

A: Singer-Songerwriter and beat-making...I have been doing this since I was t12 years old and have made many sacrifices to continue on. I refuse to be a starving artist because I do not believe it is essential to create when the life essentials are not taking care of....I use the Merelow's theory as a guide. Professionally, I seek a career in tech or sound design, but if If could quit it all for an effective, consistent and stable career as a songwriter, I passionately would!
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Soulful, intellectual, dreamy and creatively authentic.
