Thanks for being patient.I'm still here

About Me

New profile bio. Forget the old one. I'm young and I pretend a lot of the time. I make music that isn't really anything, but to me it's a lot. You could dance to it if you wanted, or you could listen to it. OR you could scan straight past this page and not think anymore of it. But I'll still be here. The music could be seen as "leftfield down-beat ambient chill" or existentialist clap trap if you prefer. I just start working and see what happens. I'm not looking for fame and notoriety but if you've got any going spare I'll give you my home address and you can mail me some. I just want to do my thing and see what people think. Please stop by and let me know some time I make good cups of tea.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 11/8/2005
Band Members: Me, the young pretender, and a limited group of very patient and understanding people who are way more creative than I
Influences: Anything where the music is not defined by one thing but employs it to a new level. It's electronic, but that's hopefully not all it is. Something amusing.
Sounds Like: A job lot of softsynths, operated by a chimp, masquerading as an expert. But I try to take my influences from everywhere, none of my ideas are particularly new but they pay homage to those who do this stuff properly
Type of Label: None

Australia-it's hot

So we arrived in Sydney on friday night, trekked through the Blue Mountains on Saturday and then sailed across the Sydney harbour on Sunday. It was hot but it was a nice hot. But let's be honest the t...
