About Me

Midwestern boy who somehow ended up in ABQ via MPLS via SLC via San Jose via MPLS again. It's a long story. I know very little but am trying to understand. I like to talk about things that I can never possibly understand. I love indie rock and electronica, especially German stuff. Anything from Harmonia to Schnauss. But not Tangerine Dream. I think they are German.
