Early Life Drew was born in Atlanta, Georgia June 5th 1998. He was born to Curtiss & Connie Singleton. Embrie states in interview. "I remember having a normal childhood. I played with friends and my sister. I played Pokemon and GameCube just like any other kid my age."

Musical Background

Embrie stated multiple times he has not gotten where he was "alone." He references to multiple bands, producers, and singers who have inspired his work and made him love music. He states about his early listen in music- "I remember the music I listened to as a kid. I remember my mom wanted me to listen to Christian music all the time. [he laughs] I remember my dad introduced me to a lot of rock bands that I love now, so much like The Killers, The All-American Rejects, The Doors, and some other stuff. I also remember listening to Daft Punk and Justice a little as a kid. By the time I was 10 I remember listening to Skrillex, deadmau5, Grumblex, and Datsik. Man I was a weird kid. [laughs]." He mentions playing instruments at a very early age. He says "My mom said she was going to make me take piano when I turned seven. I convinced her not to, and I picked up a bass guitar instead. I played bass for about five years until this whole "EDM" scene got popular when I was 12. I also played drums with my dad, and started playing alto and tenor saxophone in middle school." He continues about how he got started producing and early djing. He says, "I remember my friend Brandon saying to me one night when I was over lets dj music. I laughed at him, and I said we don't have any equipment. We went upstairs and he showed me his mixer, and controller he got off of the internet. We did small parties. It was kind of fun. [laughs] I started producing music before that. I got the FL Studio Demo on my PC and made drum loops for fun. I got frustrated one day when I wanted to expand an idea I had for a pluck, so I sat down at 11 years old and learned the DAW. After I figured everything out I made hardstyle after being impressed with a DJ Coone track. I wrote two songs, and remixed one of his and that kinda started this alias I made called Ongllex."

Martin Garrix Issues & The Origin Of Embrie

He states how he made multiple types of genres including ones, like Trance and Progressive House When asked about Martin Garrix he laughs and says "Wow really? People still care about that? When I was finishing my last house track I made a live edit of Martin Garrix's Animals. I basically only did it because I knew it would get me a lot of plays It did. I realized I wouldn't get anywhere in this world without selling out. So I thought to myself make dubstep, so I said sure." Singleton also talks about getting the name "Embrie"- "I remember getting a bunch of Malaware on my Windows 7 back in September 2013. When opening up the notepad left by the hacker it read a bunch of German words, and "Embrie" stuck out. I used that."

Logo

"My Logo comes from my ex-girlfriend (she who shall not be named) [laughs] When i got dumped by her I used that to show my emotion towards my music, and wrote dubstep to get my sadness out."
