About Me

I'm a musician/recordist/upholsterer. I will record your album, play on it, and transform that dirty amp into a velvet mountain of style and grace. I have a webpage that will some day be way better than it is right now.

My Interests

getting good synth bass; smoothing out the wrinkles; learning electronics in a quest for better, cheaper gear....and reading science fiction books for their sociopolitical commentary (don't say nobody warned you).

I'd like to meet:

People who need better sounding recordings and better looking amplifiers. and web designers.

Music:

Hall and Oates (Beauty on a Back Street is the best album ever); Styx in a way; old time orchesters; Doobie Brothers, Steely Dan, or anything with Michael McDonald including some Christopher Cross even; Wilco and Muppet Movie Soundtrack style shuffles; Loose Fur; Jim O'Rourke; Kraftwerk; Quincy Jones; Yamo; Electric Music; Wendy Carlos; Tomita; Pointer Sisters; TransAm; Beat Street Soundtrack; Gilberto Gil; Antonio Carlos Jobim; Seu Jorge; Joao and Astrud Gilberto; Michael Jackson; and, Keroncong of course....

Television:
