About Me

Welcome to my version of electronica music. I've just recently started to dabble in electronica, so I'm probably what you would consider a novice. To be perfectly honest, I can't tell you the difference between trance, techno, hard house, jungle, or any other sub category of the genre. I am a fan though and I listen to quite a lot of it. I absolutely love making music, and some people even seem to like it. Of course none of them are label A&R reps that want to pay me for it.As far as influences go, I'd have to say life in general and my mood at the time. I'm in awe of "BT". It's insane how skilled and talented one man can be. I also dig DJ Rap. Donde esta los digits to Dj Rap? I'm a Fan of The Chemical Brothers, Prodigy, Orbital, Paul Oakenfold, The Crystal Method, Zero 7, etc. The list goes on and on. I'm a huge fan of music period. I love to listen to it, play it, write it, record it, dance to it, and experience it live. It means the world to me. I'm always looking for that next song that moves me in some way. Hopefully something I write moves one of you.Even though I've entered into the realm of electronica music, I also produce hip hop and I have also played the drums in rock bands forever. You can check out my hip hop profile (Eat Em Up Productions) and my band profile (Jacks Smirking Revenge) both in my top 8. Enjoy!For anyone that cares, right now I'm using Reason 3.0 exclusively. Everything you hear on my profile is produced using Reason. Mainly because I've been to broke to get anything else and learning curves are a bitch. I am however about to add Ableton Live 6.0 to the mix. I'm sure that will screw things up for a while.Also check out my brother's profile "Joshua" in my top 8 he's a very talented artist/cartoonist.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

Earthquake Weather

So I'm pretty happy with this song. I still may do some minor tweaking and mixing but it's pretty much done. Good enough for the low fidelity myspace music player. I'm pretty sure this will make the a...

Chaos Theory

So after living with Chaos Theory for a couple of weeks I decided to make some changes. I don't think I was really happy with the finished product in the 1st place but I was kind of over working on it...
