Azel — The Italian Beatbox Champion on the Early Days of His Journey, Connecting Worlds, Finding Growth Within Challenge and Life as an Artist
Azel/Giuseppe Cuna is a world class beatboxer and social media influencer.Azel is known for being the Italian beatbox champion, along with his iconic signature sounds of Liquid Bass and Vortex Whistle and for his passionate love of riddim, dubstep and similar genres of bass music.He's created multiple viral beatbox covers of songs for Svdden Death, and connected the worlds of dubstep and beatbox in 2020 by creating the first half beatbox, half dubstep song with Snails.In addition, he's also one of the most genuine, kind and passionate souls I've ever met and I'm fortunate to call him one of my best friends.Like the visual of experience of video? Check of the podcast version below: https://youtu.be/-d0oDSpo5egIn the Azel interview, we get into his secret passions, what it's like to be such a public facing person at a young age, and what Azel was like as a kid — and how his childhood qualities apply to his present self.We cover the journey of how he came a world class beatboxer — from how he discovered beatbox, to the most intense year of work he put in, to becoming the Italian beatbox champion at the ripe age of 17 years old.Throughout, we highlight the journey he's had with developing his signature sounds — the famous Azel liquid bass & vortex whistle — as well as struggles he had in the early days of beatboxing, and why he continued to persevere even though he wasn't good at the beginning.We discuss the moment he realized he needed to do beatbox, why he turned beatboxing into a serious thing, how he discovered dubstep through beatboxing, and where he got his name from. Digging deeper, his mindset is explored as we unwrap how he thinks about challenges, accepting failure to use it for growth, "randomness", the positives and negatives of his obsessive nature, and the powerful self belief he has for himself.We also talk about hitting 1 million views at 17 years old, connecting the EDM world with beatbox world, his journey with learning to view himself as an artist.And last but not least, we have multiple laugh attacks (including from Azel's loathing of Facebook) and nerd out on our favourite tracks from 2010 era of dubstep.Expect Azel/Giuseppe to return in the near future for multiple follow up episodes where we'll go deeper into the psychology of success, our perspectives on the world, our systematic approaches — and a lot more.Thank you for listening!
