To know death, Otto, you must fuck life in the gallbladder.

About Me

Highly sarcastic moody musician, who also happens to be an egotistical prick with a computer and internet access.

I'm a recording and mix engineer for hire. I also work out of my own home-based studio which is good for smaller-demo projects. I've been working in the audio industry for 10+ years, and every day I try to learn something new. I'll talk your ears off about sound transduction, and the methodologies of a mix engineer.

Music is an obsession, a passion, a dream, as well as an albatross hanging on my neck from time to time.

The painful things are always the most rewarding in the end.

myspace = marketspace

Let's face up to the fact that myspace has turned into a barren wasteland of spam. Every time I see "New Messages!" I cringe inside my skin, because I know what awaits is one of two things;Either it's...

Chuck Norris is a Homo.

Seriously people. The Chuck Norris thing was just barely funny when I heard it 6 months ago. Now it's getting totally annoying.
