About Me

My name is Kyle Tallon. I'm 25 and I live in Toronto, and I feel vaguely lost in our techno-facist capitalist culture. Been making music on my computer for about 8 years. I've been playing with turntables and records since high school. The style of music varies, and my influences are all over the place, but most of my stuff is rooted in hip hop. Samples are abound and signal processing is heavy.

I make music mostly for myself. It's what I do to keep myself sane, as well as kill time and procrastinate. I kinda like to think of it as a soundtrack to my life. I also make mixes from time to time, and love sharing them with friends. If you want to hear more from me please just send me an email. I'm always eager to share.

Hope you enjoy what you hear.
