*ABOUT ONE*

Nate was Born and Raised in the Northeast Bronx, New York, where his brother who was a  DJ back in then introduced him to music at the age of 7.  He was learning to blend records from that time all the way through High School.  After graduation, he studied Engineering under David Kennedy in Marquet Place Studios where he helped build it from the ground up, literally. Nate learned how to float floors, create a sound proof studio, basic recording, mixing and understanding a little on how to produce a track. From there he went to I.A.R an Engineering school in NYC. After graduation he started an internship at Unique Recording Studios, one of the largest studios in NYC. There Nate learned how to operate an SSL mixing board and other equipment that was commonly used in high tech studios.

After a few years of interning and working as an Assistant Engineer there was a turning point in artist using their label budget to invest in home studios which resulted in large studios loosing money and clients. That was the turning point for him to invest in my MPC60II Drum machine/Sampler. Record shopping, chopping loops, drums and turning nothing into something was the start of Nate developing his sound.  Opening himself to a buying a keyboard and taking lessons, was the next level to building his style as Oneman.

 Once Oneman was confident enough he began to take meetings with labels such as Rocafella, Interscope and various other labels where they would take notice in his efforts in not having beats that sounded the same.  Remixing became something he started doing to hear how his music would sound with an artist on it, which lead to him landing various mixtape slots for remixing artist like Nas, Jay-z Sean Paul and Elephant man to name a few. Fast forward till the last 5 years he began to realize it may be worth trying to focus more on bypassing the label and going straight for the artist and management themselves.  By doing that Oneman had such luck in handing beat cds to artist like G-Dep("Redlight") which landed a placement on an indie release.

Currently Oneman is taking matters into his own hands by selling beats to  various independent artists in all genres. He also is currently working with his own artists(Range aka Say-Vior, Jigg Littles and Phed x) on their solo projects. Up next Oneman is 1/3 of a group consisting of a Songwriter/Artist (Nneka), a Producer (Rudy Rhythmz) and himself as a Producer/Dj. Presently building on a name for the group and more experimental records. On Oneman's downtime he is working on putting beats and lining up artists for a compilation which will show his wide range of skills in genres such as Dancehall Reggae, Hip Hop, Pop, R&B and Pop.
