ERIK ARBORES
Dutch dance producer Erik van den Boom just released his Take It EP on iTunes via Armada Music. Making beats under the moniker Erik Arbores, the 14-year-old has captivated the ears of electronic listeners with his surprising aptitude behind the knobs.
He's not keeping his genius to the music world, either. The prodigy is studying Technical Physics at the University of Delft while promoting his new record. While it sounds like a crazy balancing act to perform at such a young age, Van den Boom finds the time to devote himself to music.
"I just can't live without it," he said in a press release.
You can check out Take It right here and listen to "Bliss" below. Makes you think, what were you doing at 14?
