About Me

ALL DOWNLOAD LINKS ARE NOW WORKING AGAINGET MY NEW EP FOR FREE HERE!GET MY 2ND ALBUM FOR FREE HERE!GET MY NINTENDO SOUNDTRACK FREE HERE!GET MY FIRST ALBUM FREE HERE!I am originally from Macomb, Illinois. I started making music when my neighbor bought a drum set and guitar. We recorded songs with me on drums and vocals on a playschool recorder and called ourselves Vlantis. After snagging a four-track from a friend we made a tape. I bought a drum set in high school and played in some shitty bands for a while (and released another four-track Vlantis tape). After a few false starts at trying to make music that was a little more complicated than 3 chords, two of my friends had bought a guitar and a bass. We formed what was to become The Presence of Fagan (if you're from Macomb, you know what I'm talking about). I played in PoF and Ugly Mullet (with Kenny) simultaneously for a little over a year. After that I played in Gaijin with Chad Fess (and all the PoF members) and then moved to Japan. Now I have nobody but myself to make music with.All songs were made using Ableton Live 7.

"New" Song - The New Mutiny

This is a remake of the fourth song I ever recorded long, long ago (some of you may remember).  I like this version better, but that's just me.

New Song "Fast Eddie"

This is an expansion of the outro i put in "Parachute Hanahook".I tried to sing the rockin' part with my normal voice but it was a travesty, so I turned to the good ol' faithful vocoder.  Oh well.
