About Me


Hi. I love composing music. Music means so much to me. I feel as though it has become a part of who I am... part of my soul. And you know, I think it shows throughout many of my tracks.

I really don't have a clear idea of the "type" of music I make, or the genre. I'm kind of all over the place with techno, electonica, ambient, soundscape, cinematic, down tempo, trip hop, hip hop...

I've been working with Fruity Loops studio for roughly 6 years now--I use FL 8 producer edition now--and I've been working with my lovely casio digital piano for some 3 years now, but I've been playing the piano since I was a preteen. I still have yet to fully master FL, but there's just so much you can do with it. I'll be forever learning new techniques!! And no, my music is not mastered! I wish it was though!

I suffer from broke college student syndrome. Even a part-time job and occasional money from the folks can't cure this ailment. I'm not a music major... yet. I'm still bouncing around different options and scenarios in my head. My dream though, is to compose music for and conduct an actual orchestra.

I don't care about becoming some famous music producer who lives life in the fast lane. What makes me happy is simply making music and enjoying it with others who dig it too. Yup. I just love creating musical insight into my own mind that others can tune into.

Don't be afraid to send me a message. I'm not a robot or anything and I check this myspace like.... alot. So, feel free to chat with me--unless you're some kind of deviant! If you act crazy or try to meet up with me, I will not talk to you. I'm not down for meeting random people from internet sites, but feel free to IM me on AIM (Channing Rein) or message me on myspace.

Sayoonara! come back often and perhaps I'll have fresh music available!

Mommas Boys

I left my very interesting Japanese Literature class, strode up the stairs into the computer lab, and somehow the show Momma's Boys invaded my mind. That show is the epi...
