Sarina: What topics or issues are you passionate about?
One of the topics that i am really passionate about is the fight against facism and racism. Here in Britain i see more and more racism entering secular life, things like – I’m not racist but… immigrants taking our jobs… etc. To me this type of prejudice is helped by the gutter press (to me this is all newspapers) that these people read and the belief that everything they read in the press is the gospel truth. With the press feeding the shallow minds, along with voter apathy, in my opinion this gives extremists like the fascist Brains Not Present and other far right organisations the ammunition they need to gain a little power. My belief is that politics needs to change and attract those who are apathetic to politics.
Sarina: If you won the lottery and could give $1 million USD to one of the causes on our page which would it be, and why?
There is only one cause i would give the lottery money to and that’s one that is really close to my heart and that would be autism awareness. The reason i have picked this cause is that I have family members who have autism and I know from personal experience how hard it is for autistic children/people to cope in certain situations . I think awareness needs to be greater to help others understand the world of an autistic person.
Sarina: That last line really says it all. As someone on the spectrum, I really wish more people took that approach…
Jason: What is your most prized possession and why?
Not to sound cheesy but my prize possessions are my family. Without them I wouldn’t be the person I am. Material possessions come and go, your family will always need you .
Sarina: Why do you dig Legionaire?
I dig Legionaire because their sound is fresh and through the amalagmation of influences [they] produce a sound that wants to tell the world they mean business .
Sarina: What would you like to share with the LegionCorps about your work/sites/etc. ?
What can I say about ravenslament? The first intention of ravenslament was to really mess around and remix other peoples trax but, while doing this I thought I would try my hand at doing some of my own material. As a person with an extreme eclectic taste in music I try to bring all these influences into all my work. I try not to get my trax categorised to any genre but my aim is to make music that will appeal to some/all of the artists/friends on reverbnation/myspace . I am under no illusion that all my trax will appeal to all, so making music in different styles, I hope there will be at least one track that will be liked by an individual. Anybody checking out my reverbnation profile will find these eclectic influences in all the trax i have uploaded. Thanx Legionaire for putting these questions to me, I hope I have answered them enough for you. Great thanx is given for making me your featured artist of the week .
as always believe and keep in touch
