He can actually pinpoint the time when he knew that music would be a dominating factor in his life. At the age of 5, he heard for the first time "Zenyatta Mondatta" and from there the music obsession began. ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ __________He would go on to train in jazz and classical music and major on the drums. After 2 years of music school and playing both the drums and bass guitar in bands, he chose to delve deep into electronic music. ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ __________In 2001, Mike did his first live electronic music performance (live p.a), using just a drum machine at the Tribeca in Vancouver. Since then, he has gone on to perform at many festivals and clubs around BC. ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ __________Mike joined electronica group Sonicjoy in 2002, first as a drummer and then as a song writer. The drums were eventually phased out of the band and he took control of the samplers and drum machines for the live act. He co-wrote 3 of the songs on Sonicjoy's debut album "Urban Angel." He eventually left the band to concentrate more on his own music. ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________ __________ After travelling around Latin America and Europe, Mike found inspiration from beyond his own country. Now, he spends most of his time in the studio, constantly creating new music. His newly formed live p.a. group, called Midnight Sons, is his latest project. With a wide range of influences coming from all forms of music, He doesn't want to ever limit himself to just one particular style. In his words, "If the music evolves, so will the listener."
