About Me

I was part of a few bands in the 90's before getting into producing Psy. As the Delorians (punk/pop) we won a few radio competitions and had a few nice articles written about us, but that wasn't enough to keep the band together. When the Delorians broke up I purchased some equipment so that I could write music by myself.It was around 1996 that my sister first returned from a trip to Japan and introduced me to Psy-trance. I wasn't completely hooked though until 1998 when I experienced my first Psy-trance party. It was a small party maybe 80 people, but it was put on by the now legendary Solstice music www.solstice23.com, and it blew my mind. At that point I began collecting music, and what really blew me away was how many styles of music there were within' the psy-trance genre. Soon I had my own unique style and so I began DJing.My First attempt at writing a track was with two friends from the solstice crew (Zach & Steve (DJ Sinister)) in 2001. We worked on a few tracks together as "Deaf Con 3". Next was a track with another Friend Gil (Deliria) we did a few together a well "L.S.Dream" (145BPM) 2001, and a track we never named but we referred to as "Halloween" (143BPM). It wasn't until 2002 that I had enough equipment that I could start my solo project, and so Acidengine was born. Since 2002 I have completed approximately 70 tracks at estimated lengths of 7 minutes each... that's allot of studio hours.The Acidengine project was basically designed as a forum of self-expression. I have been so moved and inspired by the works of others I had no choice but to put that inspiration to use and create my own music. I just hope my music can move an inspire people the way I myself have been inspired.I make this music out of love, and that is what makes my music pure...I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

Sounds Like: that's a tough one... My music is a little unpredictable in that my tracks tend to go in a few different directions. I finds tracks with changes the most interesting to listen too, and often they are also the most interesting to produce.
