About Me

Just finished with school and am now busy not putting my degree to use, 40 hours a week.

I like to make people dance... used to be a resident for Late Night Empire Ballroom, now just play there occasionally. Before that was on the terrace at Pure, and for Spundae LV before that.

The rest of my time is spent hanging out with friends, learning how to be more efficient with Ableton Live , watching movies, eating sushi, further expanding my knowledge of quality wines, and spending time with the hookah.

I stay fairly busy, but still have time to play around .. everynow and then, so anything else, just message me.

NEW MUSIC

My Interests

music, wine, movies, and of course....

.. ..

I'd like to meet:

THE AUSSIE ANGELS!!!

or just any attractive aussie woman.... but seriously, I'd like to meet...

+ anyone who loves dance music or has an interest in it
+ any of the producers/djs on my music list that I haven't already
+ people in the dance music/nightclub industry
+ people in the financial services industry to network with

++++ anyone with more than basic proficiency in Ableton Live++++

+ people that i knew in school but lost contact with
+ anyone that would like to get to know me

Music:

Electronic Dance Music (you know the music most people call "techno" and have no idea 99% of it sounds way different than alice deejay, dj sammy, and ____ insert random radio crap song here)

Get this video and more at MySpace.com

I totally dig the music Sasha has been playing since switching to the Ableton Live platform.

I'm more into producers than djs, so yea, I like stuff by....
Mylo, Eric Prydz, Steve Angello & Sebastian Ingrosso, Infusion, Ozgur Can, Skylark, Killahurtz, Derek Howell, James Holden, Perry Oneil, Markus Schulz, Way Out West, Gabriel & Dresden, Matthew Dekay, Max Graham, Santiago Nino, Andy Moor, Tilt, Benz and MD, Peace Division, Tiefschwarz, Ulrich Schnauss, Ian Brown, Peter Martin, Mashtronic, Trentemoller, Trent Cantrelle, Dnox & Beckers, Zoo Brazil, and a whole bunch of stuff you've probably never heard of before.

Basically I'm into dirty electroish house type stuff, and melodic progressive.

Other stuff: Bloc Party is definitely my favorite band, and I also enjoy John Mayer, Snow Patrol, Breaking Benjamin, Unwritten Law, Taking Back Sunday, Blink 182, Stone Temple Pilots, Pearl Jam.

Movies:

yea, i like cinematic adventures

*looks at first few dvds in collection*

Super Troopers, American History X, Sin City, American Psycho, Old School, Waiting, Ace Ventura, Van Wilder... and yea there's way too many to list

guy movies rock too... scarface, swingers, and so forth.

I'm really into the James Bond movies... or maybe its just the fantasy of living that kind of lifestyle

And since i'm pretty much desensitized and a deviant i like movies that you watch and then after say "wow, that was f'ed up"... like uhm, devils rejects, kids, etc.

Television:

I religiously watch nip/tuck. I also never miss The Office.

Stuff I watch if I'm not at work... The Colbert Report. The Daily Show. Family Guy. Futurama. Reno 911.

Books:

I'm not a voracious reader by any means, but I have recently enjoyed Angels & Demons and The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown.

Heroes:

Tyler Innes: For providing me with my only near death experience
