Biography:
There are 3 types of people in this world who do 1 of the following: People who watch things happen, let things happen and make things happen. Ask Jeff “Braintrax” Henderson and he will tell you that he is someone who makes things happen (by creating opportunities for him self). Born and raised in the San Francisco bay area, Braintrax got his introduction early on in music at 5 years old. Starting off with choir classes, violin and recorder, he found a passion and love for the power of sound and music and its effect on people. Growing up, he was introduced to various styles of music including classical, soul, pop rock and hip-hop through his friends and immediate family. In 5th grade his mother bought him his first keyboard to further explore his love and creation of music. By teaching himself chords and melody (and also dabbling in writing poetry which later became songs) he was on his way to pursuing a start to a career. Continuing choir and intro piano through out middle and high school, he decided to take his talents to the next level. While in college he saved enough money to purchase his first production keyboard and began creating original pieces as a hobby and giving beats away to friends who wrote lyrics over them. With influences such as Quincy Jones, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Dr. Dre and the Neptunes, he began finding his own sound and writing more. Through his natural networking abilities he began learning his craft as well as the industry and linked up with his mentor Art Herman of Zip records who showed him the ins-and-outs of this fast paced biz. Fast forward several years, a few LP’s, live shows, and music placements on A&E and MTV and you will find Braintrax, now 28, still busy collabing with various artists and placing himself to be one of the in demand producers of the moment. Feel free to jump on the train and enjoy the ride as Braintrax continues to make good music for music lovers of all kind and make his way to the top. All aboard!!
Alex De Vito
Biography:
I'm Alex De Vito, a Roman singer-songwriter, who still wants to write songs to amaze people and to be amazed by the gift of being able to interact with this universe. The new summer hit, my friends, the 2000 twist titled “The Vito’s twist” is out now!
My story begins when I was very young in a small square of my town, perhaps the smallest, to supplement my family’s budget. Then the first contests, the first joys and the little goals. The studies of singing with Maestro Vincenzo Gioieni, the love for music and piano…
I started to work hardly in the suburb dance halls, full of rewards for the art we proposed… To this day I have composed over 480 songs of any genre and for any palate.
Soundtracks such as that of Isabella Sandri’s feature movie “Animali che attraversano la strada” and of many documentary films and commercials for various national TV stations including the last spot of the Waldensian Church.
Several CDs and musical collaborations and above all The Vito’s Twist, a merry music madness that can be listened on iTunes.
But also videoclips as “Ti Voglio” and “Un millione d miliardi” in rotation on various networks and on YouTube are the mirror of my soul, of the human element that distinguish my music made of thousands of tiny nuances.
Appearance at national shows such as the Sanremo Awards or the Festival Show, are important milestone in my musical career, which with the malincoironico genre made smile people who rushed to the various events.
My wormest thanks to all those who have been following me in this barren and winding course, soon there will be good news for you and I owe it to you that have never left me and spurred me to keep on fighting for my idea…
We are great when we join together to chase dreams and we have to do that because the wonder of this world is shrinking to a wretched consumerism rush….like, you born, you buy, you go away….
But it’s not like that, we are fantastic creatures, beautiful, incredibly rich in surprises because our path is unknown like a face down card worth to be played over and over, with the clear awareness that cards are few in a lifetime and that is why we must always be there with our mind and our heart! Thanks to you Friends who have always followed me and to all of you who are starting now.
Have a Good Life,
Yours,
Alex De Vito
