Goudron is a modern craftsman of synthesis, structure and song. His music seems choreographed to a film, breaking down, starting up, fluctuating and adhering to rules that make his music sound like no other. His unique 'sound' comes in part from the fact that he modifies a lot of his gear himself; it also comes in part from the fact that he knows his machines inside and out. Watching him live, he masterfully manipulates analog synths without schematics - an amazing skill to those that truly know vintage analog gear.

"Great new wave electro-punk from Detroit. Wicked, deceptively subtle stuff..."
-Jockey Slut
"Responsible for one of the best tracks on the Ersatz Misery Loves Company comp... with angular synth lines and tuff-ass bass beats, he's a welcome addition to the Ersatz family."
-Vice
"When it breaks down, the people in the club are going to scream! This is tight. I really love the bass line. If I had a set between 2 and 5 [am], I'd probably drop this around 3."
-Felix Da Housecat / Remix Magazine

THE BASTARD, my circuit bent 505. It might not be pretty, but this drum machine destroys christian youth, moistens panties, blows unprepared circuits, and is only legal in two states...Michigan is NOT one of them.
Influences: Birds, especially turky vultures, Sand-blasters, and...

Old Style. What can I say? I discovered Old Style when I played my first gig as Goudron in Chicago, home of the most intense and balls out live band in the whole world, J+J+J, and they never fail to bring a bunch of the stuff to Detroit when they role through town. When I'm in the windy city, nothing quenches my thirst better than an ice cold can of Old Style. Thank you, Old Style!!! Sponser me already!!!
