SABBY RAYAS - Music Producer, Artist, Writer, ... So.. That's what I seem to be .. Since 1986 I have been dabbling with the Electronic method of composing musical Dance TRAX ... DJing since I was 13 years old ... I got hooked to that fascinating trip of ELECTRONIC DANCE MUSIC ...EDM ... Disco, Soul, Rythm and Blues .. on top of everything else.. EDM MUSIC was a great GIFT from the SUPREME BEING ... THE DISCO GOD!!!!!!
WHOM HAVE I WORKED WITH? Muchos, Lets see, I guess I'll start at the beginning. The Eastside of L.A was saturated with Dj's , flyers were so hard to read, sometimes more spinners than partiers. A milkcrate of records certified you to put your name on a business card...but, We had to start somewhere...me too...Next faze.... ...the MACHINES...Wow!!!...TR-808, 707, 727, JUNO 106, JX3P, MINI MOOG, SEQUENTIAL CIRCUITS, DX7, LINN, and OVERDUBBING....what a glorious thing....NOIZE!!!!...Let's make some!!!!
EXPERIMENTS AND LATE NIGHTS.....My first arrangement sounded like the CHASE ....
from Midnight Express... I went to a TARGET store and played it on a stereo .. then some guys came up and asked me what song that was...and what record store I bought it at.... it felt good... I never released that track and to this day... I still have it...maybe one day... but,
it made me begin a new adventure in my life....CREATING.... Here are a list most of the things I've done and people I have worked with ... some famous but mostly cool.... ENJOY!!
My ReSUME : LUTHER VANDROSS, MARLON JACKSON, PAUL SHAFER ( From SNL and David Letterman ), CHERELLE, TERRY LEWIS & JIMMY JAM, PAULA ABDUL, JOHNNY KEMP, JEFF LORBER, STEVE BELTRAN, KEITH COHEN, WAWANEE, LIVING IN A BOX, THEA AUSTIN ( SNAP), AFTER 7, LUCKY PIERRE, there is more, but, My memory is at a blank...
