DRUMMER-DEPROGRAMMED STUDIOS-CONTINGENCE

About Me

THANK YOU ALL FOR VISITING MY PAGE! I'M JT AND HERE'S A BIT ABOUT MYSELF AND MY CAREER BEHIND THE DRUMKIT.I'VE PLAYED TAMA DRUMS FOR THE PAST 25 YEARS AND THEY'VE MADE A PRETTY GOOD RUN WITH ME IN THAT STRANGE PERIOD OF TIME. I'VE PLAYED VARIOUS STYLES WITH A MENAGERIE OF GROUPS THROUGHOUT THE YEARS BUT HAVE REMAINED LOYAL TO THE INDUSTRIAL MARKET. I'VE HAD THE PLEASURE OF SHARING STAGES WITH THE LIKES OF GRUNTRUCK, KORN, TYPE-O-NEGATIVE, CARCASS, THE PRESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES AND GRACE. I'VE RECORDED IN STUDIOS ALL ACROSS THE UNITED STATES AND HAVE LIVED ON THE WEST COAST, EAST COAST, SOUTHWEST AND HAVE TRAVELLED ACROSS THE POND TO VISIT ENGLAND AND NORWAY. SEATTLE WAS WHERE IT ALL STARTED FOR ME, I'M PROUD TO SAY. I'VE BEEN THE DRUMMER FOR MANY MUSICAL PROJECTS AND AM CURRENTLY APPROACHING THE 13 YEAR MARK WITH CONTINGENCE, MY MAIN BAND. I LIVE IN TEXAS NOW--- ENJOYING A BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP WITH MY BANDMATE OTTO CATE. WE OWN AND OPERATE DEPROGRAMMED STUDIOS WHERE I HANDLE THE DRUMTRACKING PROJECTS HERE IN TEXAS AND OTTO WHIPS THE REST INTO SHAPE IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. DEPROGRAMMED STUDIOS IS ON THE LEADING-EDGE OF COMMERCIAL SOUNDSCAPES AND MUSICAL SCORING FOR MAJOR MOTION PICTURES/FILM/TV AND VIDEO GAMES. CHECK US OUT AT www.deprogrammedstudios.com. ONCE AGAIN...THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN MY DEAL HERE AND MY DRUMTRACKING WORKS IN PROGRESS WILL CHANGE PERIODICALLY ON MY PLAYER THERE FOR SNIPPETS OF SOON TO BE RELEASED PRODUCTION TRACKS FOR LICENSING FOR FILM/NETWORK AND VIDEO GAME AVENUES. ENJOY AND CONTACT IS SURELY WELCOME! IN THE MEAN TIME...RAWK!---JT
