I’m A-Playa. Here’s what I wrote in a comment to NPR’s article…
I’m an independent artist that takes pride in staying true to myself. The Vecctones is my current project and I believe it to be distinct, unique and geniune. I’ve incorporated UPLAYA as a production tool to help make decisions about what version of a song to use and also for which songs make the cut. There is a way to use UPLAYA while not making any compromises to your music. I think it is an invaluable music production tool for bands and producers to further sculpt their sound and hone their craft.
