About Me

Arabb LP = $8
drillnbass.triphop.seizure.ambient

Life
I'm an open book. Washington, PA is my home, but I currently reside in Castle Shannon, PA; It's about 15 minutes from downtown Pittsburgh. All of my friends live back in WashPA. You can find me there almost every weekend. I'm a web designer for Carnegie Mellon University, a music producer for myself and my friends, and a musician seeking fame and respect.

Music
Me in a nutshell: I enjoy every type of music (except pop country). My CD and mp3 collection ranges from REM to RATM, Cannibal Corpse to Neil Young, Sunny Day Real Estate to EPMD, and Justin Timberlake to Boards of Canada.
