"I came into this world with sound, and I shall go out of this world with my sound...MUSIC"- Imani AthenaThe "DOCTRINE of ETHOS" (The first theorized concept of music in ancient Greece created by Aristotle) states that MUSIC affects a human beings moods, feelings, and reactions.I'd like to think of myself as an architect of SOUND. A pioneer in the constantly evolving landscape of music. I just make the music be it produce, write, or compose. The mixing process is my favorite moment during the creation of a song. It allows me to really apply all my notes (then some) to the project through a series of sequential experiments. Arrangements...they're fun, but sometimes can be very complicated yet easy on the ears and heavy on the soul. Some other things you should know about me, are that I read a lot and absolutely adore the brilliance of Quentin Tarintino and Hunter S. Thompson...by the way, Where the Buffalo Roam is the original Fear and Loathing In Vegas Movie, starring Bill Murray. I used to think Johnny Depp gave an excellent performance until I saw where he took it from. Oh my bad, back to MUSIC. That's pretty much it. I don't have anything profoundly cliche to say just that making music makes me feel alive and worthy so that's why I do it. I quit watching T.V four years ago. So I paint instead. Those in the art world call me an Abstract Texturalist...that works for me.2007 is the year that I have chosen to fully come out unveiling a body of work that is my best thus far, capturing the human spirit and tenacity for truth, survival, death, love, and inner peace. I've spent a majority of the time collaborating with great musicians/colleagues who have shared their passion and love for music with my bigger picture. Many of you (including myself) have been awaiting the arrvial of new music and show dates. Keep your eye on my page from time to time and you'll get updates, new music, pics as I get them.THANK YOU FOR YOUR SINCERE SUPPORT, WORDS OF INSPIRATION, AND GRATTITUDE.
