About Me

I grew up in the midwest. Growing up I was exposed to a wide range of musical influences from Johnny Cash to Depeche Mode to Nirvana. I first discovered my passion for electronic music at a rave in Las Vegas during the mid 90’s. Falling in love with the hypnotic rhythms and syncopated patterns. It was in 2002 that I first began to DJ, joining forces with Jonas Koep playing local gigs in rural New Jersey and Pennsylvania. It wasn't long after that, that I took the natural progression into music production. While producing I have worked with a wide range of artist with influences from Jazz to Hip Hop to Alternative Rock. Working mainly with Reason 4.0 and Logic Pro, I've defined my own unique sound always staying true to the emotional feeling in the music which I first fell in love with. In 2008 I moved back to Las Vegas quickly entering the underground scene. After releasing my internet hits “Robot Girlfriend” “Attack and Release” and “Super Slide” my on-line fan base continues to grow.
