About Me

I grew up in Dallas, which was OK, but not that great. Now, I live in Seattle... which is great! Love, LOVE the Pacific Northwest!I make music because I love music. I'm really tired of worn-out sounding, clubby, house and techno that never really seems to go anywhere, and is afraid of complex melodies. I aim to change that.I grew up playing Sega Master System, NES, Genesis, and Super Nintendo, and I've been influenced a lot by those sounds. I'm trying to incorporate them into modern electronic music in a way that doesn't sound gimmicky or like yet another attempt to exploit '80s nostalgia. The thing is, I really do like the textures of a lot of those sounds, always have. I love FM and additive synthesis, so I try to incorporate a lot of that stuff, too.I also really enjoy drum programming, and I try to keep it novel, but not so out there as to be inaccessible by most people.Since myspace compression utterly BLOWS, please send me a message if you'd like a proper, 320kbps, top-quality LAME mp3 of my work. I'm always happy to oblige, gratis, until I get signed.
