1. Artist name and where did it originated from?
My name is Lumonest and I wanna say it came from Pokemon (Lunatone) back in like junior year of high school, I just changed some letters hear and there and I just somehow stumbled on 'Lumonest' and I thought that was the coolest thing ever.
2. Where are you from?
Born and Raised in Miami,Florida
3. Influences/inspiration?
Life experiences, my friends, Kanye West, Pharrell Williams, J Dilla, Tyler, the Creator, and different shades of colors.
4. What makes your music different than other producers ?
I like to think of all my songs as memories that all have a story to tell. I don't really like the whole "type beat" thing just because I feel like when you get in that mindset of "oh I'ma make a (insert artist) type beat", You have to adhere to a certain formula set by someone else so I try to make my stuff as original as possible.
5. Dream collab?
Frank Ocean
6. Favorite rappers and why?
That's tough! If I'm going off-top probably Kendrick and Kanye just off of influence and style alone. Like have Devil in a New Dress by Ye and Ross? Or U by Kendrick? Masterpieces!
7. Where do you see yourself In 10 years?
Hopefully roaming Japan or with a condo over looking a city somewhere. Putting plaques on walls stuff like that.
8. Favorite album?
Blonde by Frank Ocean
9. Upcoming projects?
Right now I'm working on my brother Douglas' project. He's co-owner of a collective/label we started up called Rosegold. It's gonna be tough trust me if you liked "Bloom" you'll love this.
10. Fun fact about you?
I started collecting crystals and stuff, energy is important so you gotta regulate and maintain that ya know!
