About Me

At this point in time I am an unemployed bum who is actively seeking employment and failing miserably. Been playing about with packages like Fruity loops for a few years and have recently started using Reason 3.0 and Recycle. This isn't done with any seriousness - mainly just faffing about with loops the now - production skills aren't up to much but will post some stuff up soon.Finally found a job - money will soon be rolling in to be spent mostly on shit I dont need no doubt

My Interests

Pretty run of the mill - tunes (listening and failing at producing) clubbing not as much as I'd like, DJ'ing before I had to sell my decks for a pittance, F1, Moto GP/Superbikes, mtb'ing and steering well clear of programs like Big Brother
