About Me

»-(¯`v´¯)-» Design your MySpace with MyLook «-(¯`v´¯)-« massey is a composer and performer based in New York. He was in the rock and roll band X27. The Berkshire Symphony played his senior thesis in college (2000). A small college orchestra in Lancaster, PA commissioned a new work of his (2002) but refused to program it. So he quit that scene (2003) and became a one-man band (2004). In 2005 he decided that he would consider himself a writer and visual artist as well. True multimedia works are in progress. I am reaching out for artists, writers, talent mongers, and party throwers who want to be a part of loophole records. Talent mongers will do the lowliest jobs.

this is exactly what I need

another blog... Hi there. I am working on some new stuff, a project I have titled "music for war." I'm taking live recordings or one-takes and messing with them. It yields a low-fi sound but I think ...
