Martin Maniraruta is a musician popularly known by his fans as Manimartin. He says that although he has come a long way, there is still a lot that needs to be done. Below is how he goes on with his day-to-day activities;

I wake up at around 7a.m. I pray for a nice and blessed day. After breakfast, I start on the day’s program. Depending on a particular day, I may either compose or write or go to the studios.

However, during morning hours I consult other musicians and others in the music industry on how to improve my music.

It’s also this time when I have to find out what is new in the industry. This helps me produce music that will win more fans.

At around 11, I am at home to refresh. I have lunch at around 1p.m. I then rest for about an hour and by 3, I start composing music.

Most of the time, I prefer going to the studio at night. And I am always there until midnight latest. But if I happen not to be recording, I am at home by 9p.m, have supper and get to bed at 10.
