I've got a handbasket, Who wants a ride to hell

About Me

..I was born in Santa Rosa, California. Since i was four i have resided in Albuquerque New Mexico. Growing up i wanted to be a race car driver (my folks and i lived in westgate nextdoor to Al Unser!). A series of tickets, high speed mayhem and other legal activity swayed me another direction. Over the years music became a solace, an inspiration, an obsession and an addiction. I believe i started my first band in 1990/91 with my best friend through middle and high school; Lee Kinng III. Many incarnations and this long later, i now play in six bands; Alchemical Burn, Ohmniscience, Unnatural Element, Nano Crack, Cobra//Group, and Vertigo Venus. I am an audio technician and power electronics musician often self described as a noiseician. I have done sound for some incredible bands! Including, but not limited to; dixie witch, super heavy goat ass, hell on heels, the prids, black elk, mankind is obsolete, rasputina, voltaire, edward ka'spel, disturbed, 400 blows, bad wizard, seraphim shock, cruxshadows, the young adults, mystic vision, pink flamingos, linda cotton, agape, the hot IQ's, black maria, the 2bers, blowfly, and the list goes on...! I do a good amount of production and love helping organise and put on shows for bands whose music i like! I have worked sporadically in television, film, modeling, and foto novellas here in New Mexico. Most of that work has been as an extra or in the soundtrack arena with independent productions such as B.A.B.O.F. which won Best Original Soundtrack for the Digital Shootout, then called Flicks On 66. In 2006 i won best original soundtrack for the 48 hour film festival for a short titled Helping Hans. I hope to be collaboratin/working on the soundtrack for an independent feature length gothic film to be shot here soon. Music and everything about it absorbs a large amount of my being as well as nourishes it! I am into alchemy/magick, s&m/bondage, mass amounts of all styles of music, excellent food of all nationalities, travel (i have been to Mexico & Japan-i have longed to go back for an extended amount of time since) as well as california-washington-arizona-utah-texas-colorado-oklahoma- georgia-vermont-indiana-etc. I hope to get out to New York, Canada, Portugal and Spain Sometime soon, as well as various parts of Europe. Over the last few years i have become a regular visitor to Los Angeles, both for playing music and just hanging out. Overall i enjoy friendly adventurous folks. I love it when i get educated about culture & art. Some of my idealogical and artisitic inspirations are the Surrealists. The notions of chance, automation, and randomization are so true to life itself! My affinities lie with the Dark Goddess and Grandmother Spider. My head is filled wild and detailed endeavors of the imagination. My libido enjoys lovers whom know what it is really worth, and my heart is fulfilled when i can express and share openly with my loved ones. ..
