About Me

I am from northwest Washington. Have been playing music since I was about 14 years old. Started with the guitar, loved that. And I really wanted to be able to play most instruments. So I went on to learn the Drums. Played in a couple of small bands in southern Utah. Wooo Fun *sarcazm* Played the Bass for a while in a small band in Spokane Washington. And then before I knew it I was 26 or 27 and thought that there is no way someone of that age is going to make it in a "Band".Around that same time, I met a great friend, Marc Munro. And its a good thing that I met this guy. Cause he introduced me to Electronic music. Being that I really have been mostly music my whole life. this was one of the most exciting findings ever. I could be 170 years old and still write music that people will love and I don't even have to play it. There are dj's for that.Ever since then I have been honing my taste and figuring out what I like the most about this genre and working with that. Turns out House is the coolest genre as far as I am concerned. So now what, Funky house, electro house, deep house, house and of course all of those genre's blend together once and a while as well.So after a few years I think that I have finally found what kind of music I really really want to share with other music lovers. All kinds of house!!! Although lately I feel that I am starting to get older, because I have been working on some deep house and downtempo tracks. Inspired by Jay Denes of Naked Music.Although the music that I have written in the beginning was somewhat electro. I feel that I am growing out of that and trying to take more time and care in regards to what I want a track to actually sound like. As well as keeping my eye on a couple of the producers that I love, and working as hard as I possibly can to have the quality of sound that those people have. Its a rough road so far and sometimes extremely frustrating. But I will make this happen. ....watch me!! ..
