Their passion motivated Drum7 to independently research and learn about music production.

Sharing his decision, Drum7 said: “Since my university days, I have been passionate about music and art, actively participating in clubs and cultural and artistic activities. That has also motivated me to learn more about music. All the knowledge about harmony, arrangement, songwriting... I learned by searching for materials and self-studying on YouTube, Google, and foreign forums. When I felt I had accumulated the necessary knowledge, I decided to pursue my passion.”

Despite being far from home and achieving success, Hoang Hiep always keeps his heart set on his hometown of Ha Tinh .

“Back when I was in my hometown, like many other young people, I used to withdraw into myself. It wasn't until I found a suitable environment, where I no longer feared the scrutiny and judgment of those around me, that I was able to fully develop my abilities and creativity.”

"That's also the advice I want to give to young people who love music, especially young people in Ha Tinh: be more confident and dynamic, let go of your ego to do what you like. Besides that, find suitable venues and environments that match your talent, find a mentor and encouragement. That way, you will soon achieve your own success," Hoang Hiep shared.

Speaking about his hometown of Ha Tinh, the young man in his 20s also confided: "In the future, when I have a solid foundation, I will aim to create community music. That's when I can incorporate Ha Tinh's musical elements into my music products to make practical contributions to society, help improve lives, and spread a positive image of the land, culture, and people of my hometown, Ha Tinh."
