| About Youngold's Paradise® |
| What is Youngold's Paradise? Most of you must ask yourself what is Youngold's Paradise. This nickname was the origin of a dream for me. I wanted to make my own CD, made on computer. I used a program called eJay, and I created about 13 tracks. I named the album "Come with me 2night" and called the group Youngold's Paradise. I loved doing that, and I ended up falling for techno and dance, which is the main style of music in the CD. My dream was to produce that CD and become famous. I was then only 12 years old. Now, I realized how music is hard and how the music I made was far to be good enough. I gave up making music on computer, but did not give up my nickname: YOUNGOLD'S PARADISE. The music you hear when you are on the main page is "Scream," one of the songs in the CD. Not a lot of people know about my a.k.a. Youngold's Paradise. I don't talk a lot about it, but I am still proud of it. I find it original, unique and stupid in a way, too; I think that's what makes it special. I use it as my email address and as my nickname on the web. Among my friends, I have many nicknames, but none of my friends knows this one and none uses it, not even in my family. It is a dream that will never vanish from my memory ... because if I ever get famous, which I really doubt, my dream would be for me to be known as Youngold's Paradise, or Y P for short. Today, I let the computer aside to focus more on actual music writing. I hope one day to come up with a song with complete music and lyrics. I started to write some music in June 2004, for the hope of a song that might be entitled "Cancer of Love." It is still a project, and is far to be completed. I need to write the lyrics, with the goal of playing in my church one day, Faith Community Church. I have many dreams, maybe too much, but that's what keeps me alive. Maybe one day, I'll write songs in French, other pop songs, music for musicals, etc ... Basically, I want to do everything. I would not have this passion and this determination without the support of my family and friends, whether from Belgium or from California. Each one of those I met in my life made a difference in my life, each single one. I really enjoy being part of the Sierra Vista High School band. I've met many extraordinary people who I admire, respect and who inspire me. I've had a wonderful musical education, and I feel really lucky for that privilege. I must thank my parents, for being there and supporting me, I must thank all of my teachers for their wonderful job, and each friend for their respect toward my hard work. |
