About Me

What % of people actually get this far/ read this shit? Maybe 20%? If you HAVE gotten this far, yes, you should care. (!) My bio-nugget: Been a drummer since 1981 and a guitarer since 1983, and since then I've learned (and continue learning) voice, bass, keyboards, programming, audio engineering/ composing/ arranging/ scoring etc.. (We're so very prouda' ya!!) As I mentioned before I've been tearing it up with The Netherlands, my scathing/ happy/ deth/ punk band, check it out!! Our 3rd EP, "Gato Au Chocolat" is available on ITunes, along with the first two, and is quite vicious, actually!! Also out is my 3rd (!) solo LP, "The White Bronco", which is top notch, if I may be so bold!! I also have a production company called 70% Water music, making music for commercials (and I'm getting into movie scoring); thus far I've done Hanes, Becks, Dunkin' Donuts, Neosporin, stuff for CNN, Showtime, and MTV..(If anyone reading this needs music for jingles/ licensing/ composing/ scoring, let me know: I've got volumes of cool shit (I'm modest, too!) I live in Brooklyn, I'm a half jew/wasp, I like long walks on the beach, and long walks off short piers etc... Coming soon (Feb 15th?): timoellis.com : my bitchin' website designed by Matthew Siskin (designedmemory.com) Well, now that I've made myself seem important and special, enjoy the aural diaspora that is me! Refreshed regularly! Amor, timo
