II. I have two record labels- SLAUGHTERHOUSE RECORDS (specializing in death metal and grindcore), and SUTEKH PRODUCTIONS (specializing in dark ambient and industrial). Since the metal scene has become stagnant, trendy and overpopulated with dullards, I have ceased concentrating as much on SHR, and more on Sutekh. Along with John from BSoI, we plan to have our first release, a compilation, out sometime at the end of the year, preceeded most likely by a four way split release, featuring Scapegoat.
III. I have started a store called The ABYSS, here in Salt Lake City. This has since closed and gone online only (see my friends list). I have written an extensive blog on The ABYSS page on Myspace explaining the closure; but in short, Salt Lake City and free thinking just weren't meant to be together.
IV. Somewhere in between all of the above, alongside a slew of boring and uninteresting jobs, I trained to be a pro wrestler (yes, the wrestling like you see on t.v.). As this school was local in Utah, not much came of it, but I entertain the notion of getting involved again...
V. I have started a documentary, having something to do with metal and gothic music, filmed during the "Dark Arts Festival", held annually here in SLC. Since SLC has proven itself to be pretty lame, I have shifted the focal point of the documentary away from being a "local scene" film, to a more broad canvas. As of yet, this film remains unfinished, but I am slowly working my way back towards that creative avenue. Other ideas are brewing as well...
VI. I am currently reading "Liber Null- Psychonaut", by Peter Carroll. This book is an introduction to magic. Having always been the ultimate atheist, I have scoffed at magic for years, only to find that upon reading it, there is more of an almost scientific or standard cold logic to it, than actual "magic", in a word. More to come...
I participate in the strangeness that is Scapegoat (see my friends top list), as well as rendering occassional assistance to that whacked-out alien lunatic, ZODIAC (also in my top friends!). I have re-started Sutekh Productions, a dark ambient-death industrial label, where most of my energy will now go.
