UNDERGROUND SAN FRANCISCO TECHNO FOR YOUR HEAD

About Me

-5-MeO was quick to begin his affair with music early in life with the album "Breakdance" and praticed his popping and locking behind closed doors in his bedroom. By the time he reached high school, he was a multi instrumentalist playing everything from drums to guitar. In 1993 he attended his first rave and had an epiphany "I want to do this.", from there it was all down hill
Joining forces with the seminal "Galanta" crew on the east coast, he quickly learned the ropes of throwing underground parties from outlaw events to full scale warehouse raves, but just throwing the parties was not enough. "I wanted to make the music! I wanted to make the people dance!" He recalls. Learning to DJ under the guidance of Galanta's daddy, DJ Jack MF, he was romanced by the sounds of early breakbeat techno and 303 heavy acid house, eventually landing on house and techno as the sounds he would play, and even made his way onto the line-ups of a few big events. After a brief hiatus and a move to the west coast, 5-MeO reinvested in music and began flirting with underground events again, finally finding a home with the like minded Acid Totem crew.
Working the border line between techno and house, his sounds range from dark and minimal to tracky and saturated. On any given full moon, you can find him playing under the stars and sharing his life long obsession with music with the tribes of party people here, there and everywhere he can.

New Tracks

When I initially started this project, it was with the mind that it would focus on a particular genre or sub-genre or sub-sub-genre of techno. But the fact that I am not content with producing just on...

The line and the arc

Everything can be made from the line and the arc. One represents the continual forward flow of time and rhythm the other represents the cyclic nature of how that time passes, similar and yet each time...

Selectively Permeable Membrane

It just likes those words. And the reference to osmosis, which is sort of how influences work. You take on what you like, to whatever degree, from music that you appreciate. You throw all the pieces i...

New beats, tracks, and moods.

My purpose here is only to share. It seems so simple, make music and put it out there for people to take par in. But the facts is that, as any creative person understands, each piece is a piece of me...

Yes, there are many sides to the box...this particular one reflects a well defined interest in screwing my own brain up. Yes, it is hard core, it is techno, it is 200 bpm...it is five minutes of obli...

Vomiting up sounds

After a great hiatus from music with the exception of the occation interlude with the blue boy and the big red crustacean, the Idi0t was made full of its own filth. Whence came the opportunity to purg...
