The Duke of Zuke / Clint Trofa

About Me

My name is Clint Battista and I make this music under 'The Duke of Zuke' moniker.
I recorded my first EP 'Silver Loops for the Morgue' in May 2007. It has five pieces on it, and some of them can be heard above. If you would like a copy, please mail me and I will send you one. I may also add a PayPal link sometime soon!
I am currently recording 'You Need a Soul to Mean Pain' (working title) which I hope to complete by Jan / Feb 2009. It will hopefully feature ten tracks - five of which will be short intreludes. It's sounding really nice (obviously!). I hope to get at least one of the finished tracks on here by December 2008 - keep your eyes and ears peeled.
I am now currently looking for shows, so please mail me if you have any vacancies you may wish me to play: [email protected]
My setup is my guitar through various reverb, backwards delays and loop pedals, with my strings/beats etc through my sampler or Macbook. Harry sometimes joins me on violin for live performances. I was also most fortunate enough to open up for Dalek earlier his year, which is probably the best performance I have pulled out, thus far!
I think that is all. If you like my sounds, let's be friends.
