About Samuel D. Mena
Creating music is my life passion. I try to incorporate a philosophy with my songwriting by using these 5 elements in a creative process: 1. Music to inspire; 2. Rhythm to groove; 3. Melody to motivate; 4. Harmony to enlighten; and 5. Hybrid to unite. For example, a harmony that warms the heart; a melody that makes you smile; a beat that pats your foot and tickles your toes, makes you groove or simply soothes. It could make you cry or make you laugh, or maybe something that just makes you wonder and later discover why. It can be a memory, a season, or just simply hello or goodbye. Whatever the reason: unite, give praise, reach out, promote, give hope, inspire a cause, create, celebrate, relief, aid, elevate, heal, feel good, have fun, past the time, share a rhyme, or even to make a dime. Although there is one thing music cannot do, that is, it cannot tell a lie. Unlike words that can deceive, music is vibrations, stimulation's, movements, velocities and times; emotional sound waves connecting our lives across boundaries of all kinds.
