About Me

I like to take things apart to see how they work, and have been doing so ever since I was a little kid.

These days I take apart cars and music, and do my best to put them back together in a manner that suits me.

When I'm not at work, I'm with my girl, lounging about, or doing some random shit.

...

I run a weekly Drum 'n' Bass netcast called Dirtbox Radio . We showcase a lot of talent from the local DC area, and have been rocking out hard-fucking-core for just about 5 years now.

For updates on Dirtbox Radio and shit in general that the Dirtbox Kru is doing, check out Dirtbox Radio's Evil Junglist Mafia . We're not really the mafia.

Here are a couple mixes of mine for ya to check out:
