About Me

MyGen Profile Generator Public Jones is MC Xtreme A (singer, songwriter, surgeon, international sex symbol, cynic, patron of the trendy and 5-star swanky, extreme type-A personality; favorite word: "psychopathology") and DJ No Money Down (producer, composer, songwriter, sarcastic cynic, patron of hole-in-the-walls, nature boy, type-B personality; favorite word: "WHY?")--a collaboration between two old UM buds who lost contact, took very different life paths, and subsequently ended up years later in L.A., unbeknownst to each other. After a tearful reunion in a dark Studio City alley, they took up where they left off and decided to put together their massive talent, egos, desire to entertain and need for approval to form this exorcism of their creative (and other) demons. The music? We think it falls somewhere in the broad categories of alt/electronic/groove/rock, but we hate pigeonholing, and micro-genres give us headaches. Know how many genres/subgenres of just electronica there are? It's crazy. So you figure it out for us. Anyway, we're finishing up our first ever 6-song EP, and putting together some live shows in the L.A. area in the very near future. Hope to see you there. Cheers.
