About Me


After months of having nothing but a lame 3rd person bio up about myself, I’ve finally decided to update my page here on myspace. Things have been so crazy on the music front that I really haven’t had the time to give this much thought here, but after looking at my page the other day and seeing how ridiculously plain and corporate it was, I’ve decided to park myself in front of my computer with a quality bottle of Chianti and get this bitch off the ground.
Music-wise, I do a little bit of everything. My company A-Frame provides music for just about any outlet you can imagine, and I handle a lot of the writing/producing/remixing we do along with my boy Chris Lee. We’ve got our hands in a lot of different things right now, and I have a feeling that things are gonna get real good real soon. I can’t really qualify musically what I do or what my sound is, cause it changes from one day to the next. One day I’ll be scoring a scene for a series I’m on, the next I’ll be writing a song for an artist, and the next day I’ll be remixing house tracks for all the beautiful people to shake their shit. I’m a little confused in that sense, and pretty much go wherever the work takes me and count my blessings that I’m doing this at all.
On the personal front I’m all over the place. I love basketball (Lake Show!!!), surfing, snowboarding, mountain-biking, scuba, rocking fools on Xbox 360 (gamertag: Cut La Rock), a good bottle of wine, tweaking my studio set-up, the stock market, hitting up every movie that comes out, and of course spending every spare moment with my beautiful wife and our two little boys. I just took up sailing and hope to some day travel the world without ever having to go through airport security.
