'creativity through reaction to environment'

About Me

My music so far has been created with what I have. I believe that good work can be made with tools one already has. Experimentation is a big part of finding who I am as a musician, and this site is kind of like a growth chart. I use synthesizers, voice, piano, trumpet, and any sound that fits a song or idea. So, thank you for checking out my site and I hope you enjoy something! -Edwin
