I program my heart to beat breakbeats and hum basslines in exhalation.

About Me

I want to make a musical product that moves units. I don't want to think. I want easily digestible, pre-packaged, ready for radio formatting. I want the Indie Rock Swoop. I want a product that comes in a pretty package with a nice bow wrapped around it. I love the safe songwriting formula of verse/chorus/verse. If it takes longer than 90 seconds to get to the singalong repeatable chorus, I'm not interested. Tell me about your girlfriend troubles. I care. Now scream for emphasis. Repeat.I can be bought and sold. I am a target market.I believe in whatever T.V. tells me to.Fashion is everything. Please accept me.Plastic body parts exude confidence, and I dig that.I also like puppies and rainbows. And unicorns wrapped in burlap.
