About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace) We live in an age where many musicians claim to be "all about the music" and yet it's so rare for that statement to be true.I helped form a band called Janitors Against Apartheid (guitar/songwritter) which is considered my greatest acomplishment. I took lessons as a kid and learned the art of slap bass, power chords and solos. I studied under a guitar/bass instructor Marcus Hemersly whom I own all of my ecclectic influence and gratiude, a pure genius I wish I could of learned more from.Through my 15 years I was able to play with other types of bands ranging from Hardcore Metal, Rock, Fusion and Jazz. Also in that time I made dozens of at home demo recordings. My most experience gained was the summer of 1989, went I went to a place called "Jazz Camp". There I learned more in one week then I had two years starting out.In 1995 I took a shot at making electronic music which lead me into a successful Drum'n'Bass dj career from 1998-2002. I still continue to make House/Techno/Jungle even though I don't dj as much as I used to. I have remixed tracks for top Electronic music acts, and composed the soundtrack to an arcade video called "Revolt". You can play it at Dave & Busters, Chuck'e'Cheese, or many other family fun centers.
