He’s just had his first session with me.
Plays guitar; turntables and DJs with The NextMen but had only played piano for two days before seeing me.
I think, actually know, it was a big eye-opener for him to see what’s possible and how essential keyboard skills are to any production.
I was reminded of what Pharrell replied when asked what was the most important thing to learn for an up-and-comer.
He replied simply:
‘Piano’.
And since then I’ve had a whole lot more respect for Pharrell.
