About Me



Layout Created at ProfileJuice.com

Music is my love and my passion. a guitar player, engineer and producer,I own a state of the art recording studio in Tribeca in downtown Manhattan called "Tribeca Recording" (go figure). I've recorded anything and everything from solo artists to bands to tv comedy shows ...check out my website for more info at Tribeca Recording or at myspace/tribecarecording I'm looking to hook up with like-minded people and make some great music together. in whichever capacity that is up to the project's needs. I can serve as an outside producer/ Engineer or a collaborator. from creative collaboration/writing to playing parts or whichever combination that is best for the situation.

Sounds Like: a little personal history: born in hungary. from age of 3 lived in Tel Aviv Israel,then from 1984 in the US. played with avant new wave band "Chromozome" in 1980-81. w Rami Fortis (Israeli punk pioneer and local Hero), Shultz & Rona Vered.( Ep .Tov Productions) 82-83 with proto industrial electronic group " Intensive care Unit." the record " Trans Skull Fructure" (CBS)r became a collectors item and would sell for a couple of hundred dollars (weird) although it was out on CBS records. 1984" tzuamen" experimental duo with partner Doron Eyal Shultz who was like a local sid vicious (oy vey). in 1984 moved with shultz to NYC. 85-88 performed in NYC at CBGB's and all around town with the band "Bla Bla" which included Shultz, Yossi fine who's an amazing groovy and funky Bass player who's list of credits is longer the John Holmes. just to mention a few: Lou Reed, David Bowie, John Mclaughlin. on drums we had Tal Bergman who was and I'm sure is still nothing short of incredible he played before and since with people as diverse as Chick Corea, Blood Sweat &Tears, Memphis Slm, Billy Idol, Dweezil & Emmet Zappa's Shampoo Horn etc.. in 92 put out a record in Israel. Shultz Gervai " Address to the Nation" (Nana Records). in 93-95 played and recorded with Serpentine - Pagan Gothic Witch music.pretty out there stuff. Serpentine is an extermely talented singer, very unique. in 96-97 with Shiva Screams, a Psychedelic Industrial Trio with Aj Tissian on Bass,Drums and programming and Ann marie Solo on Vocals. a band with great potential that fizzeld out way too fast. Since then I've concentrated on Recording and running my studio Tribeca Recording in downtown Manhattan NYC.
