About Me

IF YOU WANT TO FRIEND ME: YOU SHOULD MESSAGE ME FIRST . . ."...the girl the blonde is carrying something is carrying me and someone I used to be..." (I'll give you points for identifying the quote source. I do know it).. ---- . Oh yeah, I'm also Mahattan Project . This is my industrial/ambient noise/etc. side-project of mine.And I'm a member of two Tri-State area music/noise groups, Barney Neubauten Project and Staubmilbe Ertont . . .

NOTE TO BANDS

I grew up listening to Classical and Orchestral music. My dad exposed me to quality rock music artists like Led Zepplin and Pink Floyd. Around 1991/1992 I was exposed to Techno and Trance music and was hooked. These genres are very similar to the Classical and Orchestral in that they push the limits and expand the boundaries of sound design, sonic quality, and variety. Around 1996 I was exposed to the Experimental Noize, IDM, and Drum n Bass and I also began to frequent the occasional Industrial club events. In 1998 I moved to the Philadelphia area where I was absorbed into the local Industrial scene for the EBM, Noize, and Electro. So, that being said, if you have to look up any of the genres or groups mentioned in my "Music" category because you honestly don't know what/who they are, chances are that you don't sound anything like them and you won't be added.I have three side projects you'll see in my Top 8, one for IDM, Jungle, and Ambient Experimental Noise (Manhattan Project) the other for Trance, Techno, and Micro House (Red River). Send your appropriate genre based band/group friend request to either one.
