Women Fitness President talks to the upcoming musician about her road to success.
Namita Nayyar:
What inspired you to be a music producer?
Alina Bukiya:
I fell in love with the process, of building a song from scratch, and being able to help the artist build their personal vision. Music production was also my main escape from reality.
At first, I started as an artist, and then I thought of producing my own music. At some point of my artistic career, things did not go well and I decided to take a break from music. For the first time, I decided to travel to Toronto, Canada, and live there for a year. There, I found my first internship which was in G Spot Studios, where I met many producers and artists. Toronto’s music scene brought me Back! Watching other producers and artists working together just amazed me. The combination of Toronto’s unique sound and nature made me fall in love with music again.
