Sui Generis (Stephen Belanger)

About Me

This music is written to be interesting; It's not carefully shaped to sound comfortably like everything else. Some people might like it, others might not. All that can truly be said of this sound is that it's something new and different, something not many have experienced. I write this music for the creative outlet and for my own satisfaction. I hope you like it, but if you don't, too bad; I am the master of my own design and my design is of higher value to me than breathing.

For those that must know; I do not DJ as I don't know how. If you know anyone that can teach me let me know. All this sound is just midi editing and effects born of my own unusual mind.
