☯ WELCOME everyone.

My Listener Background – i grew up in environments where people around would be listening to 90s Rap & RnB. The first artists I ever remember hearing as a kid are 2Pac, Biggie Smalls, Dr. Dre, Bone Thugs, & Aaliyah.

In high school, I became much more passionate about the BEATS.
Ranging from the great J Dilla, MF DOOM, MadLib – to Ras_G, DIBIA$E, MNDSGN, Knxwledge, Ahwlee, TUAMIE, Ohbliv etc.. BEATS will always be the main ingredient πŸ’―

As i continue to grow, i plan to keep my selections eclectic: Soul, Funk, Jazz, Library Music, Ambient, etc..

The main reason WHY i do this is to bring awareness to artists that some people may not know about. I just want to just share great music, & give props to all the amazing artists who add color to my life. I love the fact that music has the power of bringing like-minds together over our shared love of the music.

With that
i appreciate everyone who joins me, comments, & shares their experiences

πŸ’™ much love
x Eric

πŸ‘‹πŸ» Peace, and greetings everyone

i know it has been real quiet over here on my YouTube channel, and I am writing this post to give an update:

Recently, my Mac computer that has a lot of my music library and all the music files that i have been curating crashed..

..i am currently making all the effort i can to seek out professional help from a computer tech with this, and have them run a diagnostics of my device to identify what's going on with it..

..Whether it's a software issue or an internal hardware issue, i aim to determine that as soon as possible..

..and my hope is that regardless of what the issue may be, it is one that can be resolved without any significant data loss* (*loss not only in terms of my music files, but also of the software tools with all my templates, custom settings etc.. that i have purchased licenses for and have always relied on using for creating all my uploads, videos, edits, etc..)

This event was so abrupt and it has caused a severe blow to my sharing/uploading career, as my computer has been my main tool that has helped me with preserving my music collection and having all the tools I need for creating the uploads that you see here on my YouTube channel.

Unfortunately, i do not have another computer that I could just use to pick up where I left off.. especially because it wouldn't be the same in that the license to the Digital Tools and Software tools i use to create videos has only been authorized to one computer (the one that has crashed).

In fact, I am writing this post from my Smartphone.

At the time of writing this, i cannot say for certain WHEN I'll be back online to resume sharing music again, but i will set the intention to return hopefully soon.

I hope to get this all resolved so that I can resume sharing what I've been digging up, especially in recent years.

I want to give thanks to all my longtime subscribers, as well as to the more recent YouTube subscribers to my Β @Eric_SelectsΒ channel.

Grateful beyond measure for you all.

Hoping to be back on here regularly soonπŸ™πŸ»

Thank you for understanding.

Much love ✊🏻
Peace✌🏻
