About Me

music has always been a driving force in my life. since i was a small child i've wanted to be a musician and during every period of my life, music has played a crucial role. from my days as a classical and jazz trumpet player to my early forays into electronic production at a local radio station, i've always known it was going to be. i've just completed my 3rd full-length hip hop album, titled "Ear Responsibility" (available June 1 2008), and 3 EPs with vocals called the Supply and Demand series. MP3's of the Supply and Demand Series are available through the nimbit store below. All proceeds go directly to the artist through this service.
