Let's go on a date... eat some chicken, have some sex... see what happens!

About Me

I'm Ross Leslie Tregenza. A Cornish musician fella residing in Sandiacre, outside of Nottingham, and summering in the south of Bristol.
I work as a Sound Designer for the games company Free Radical Design, which is chocablock with zombie monkeys. We're currently finishing a game called HAZE and starting a game for LucasArts.
I represent a very precise 50% of the band LAMORNA, along with my cohort Alastair Power. Lamorna is electro with a bit of a blues/rock/folk/leftfield twang. On that note, he's us punching each other while blind drunk, to a Lamorna sound track...
I plan to spend my 30s ( yes I just turned 30 ) travelling to new countries, working megahard on video games, and maturing my musical projects in new ways.I'm also in Visage, the 80s pop band with Steve Strange. We're slowly piecing together some new material, well, when Steve's not on celebrity reality shows that is :)
I like a lot of music. Mostly 60s/70s/90/00s indie rock, and 80s & modern electro. Also some old school country music, and occasional bits of blues, drum n bass and dub for good measure.
I'm scared of Octopi.
Thats about it I guess. I'm happy person. I have ace friends and family and I like what I do. Rawk.
PS, I've decided to keep this Myspace down to just people I really know, so unless I want to bum you or your music's well Jackson, I won't add you. Don't wanna be mean, I just like my MySpace to be relevant!
And last but not least, check the fuck out this viral video produced to support our game HAZE. A stunning little slice of black comedy!....
