losing my hearing to music of all tempos & flavors(electronic/indie/latin/downtempo/dub/classical), being a total nature junkie (backpacking, snowboarding, kayaking), making beats, being in love with my synth, random bursts of insomniac writing, appreciating irony and synchronicity in (seemingly) everyday things, improv theater, yummy veggie foods, spoken word/slam poetry, road trips, kaua'i, daydreaming.
artistic, unconventional, and genuine people who are passionate about what they do and how they make their mark on the world. those who go against the grain-- not for the sake of proving anything, but to be true to themselves. people who get sarcasm and don't misinterpret it as a personal attack (do they exist in seattle?!). open-minded people who welcome different perspectives that challenge their attitudes and beliefs. i don't have much patience for fakeness, pettiness, drama, or hidden agendas-- i told you motherfuckers, it's no more subliminal shit.
BEATS: trentemoller, martinez, phonique, booka shade, john tejada, swag, lee curtiss, seph, london elektricity, nine inch nails, thievery corporation, kruder and dorfmeister, dj shadow... okay, i need to stop.SOUNDS: beck, debussy, chopin, medeski martin and wood, yo la tengo, massive attack, talking heads, bjork, tool, radiohead...
