Universal truth isn't measured in mass appeal

About Me

I'm a musician (bassist), writer, artist, programmer, reggae dj, music collector, multimedia and graphic designer (BA in Visual Communication). I'm an avid listener of hip hop, metal, electronica (mostly d'n'b, jungle, ambient, funk, breaks, experimental...), and downtempo, as well as a fan of old school punk, rock, alternative (circa 1987-1996, and selectively since then), ska, reggae, jazz, blues, classical, prog rock, indie, grunge, gothic/industrial, some new wave, disco, funk, we could discuss it for weeks. I have a drummer that I've been playing with since the 10th grade. We're just waiting for him to come up with a good stage name. Protein Shake isn't cutting it. How about DeathSickle? You wanna suck on a DeathSickle, don't you. Yeah, you do, you filthy bitch.
Don't look at me with that tone of voice...
I will list more of the music I've picked up recently when my life is not overly exploded from having my day smashed into the tiny confines of a 24 hour container. You thought Jack Bauer had problems....
Check out this dope artist from the NYC www.juandoe.com
I HAVE MET AND FULLY ENDORSE THIS ARTIST, BUY UP ALL HIS WORKS!!

My Interests

flash. actionscripting, php. chomsky. media. playing bass. skateboarding. graffiti. art. music. fucking with people. late nights. trading music. turntablism and hip hop culture. hallucinations in all incarnations. spirituality, near death experiences, entheogens. memes: thought viruses and meme warfare, neuro-linguistic programming, subliminal influence and propaganda.

I'd like to meet:

A gorgeous woman who loves music, playing video games and owns a chimpanzee. Cuz I have a cat, and chimps and cats get along. My cat doesn't get along with many animals. Plus I've always wanted my own chimp, and if old girl's got one already that just saved me like I don't know how many hundreds of dollars. And a woman who can afford her own chimp lets me off quite a few other hooks too, if you know what I mean. Not that I'm broke but I probably would be if I had a girl who couldn't afford her own chimp. Cuz at that point I would have to buy the chimp, and the money issue would just come between us and I'd end up blaming her for the chimp's healthcare costs (not cheap, buddy!) every time I'm being yelled at for something embarassing I did or said in public. Irrefutable logic. So ladies, bring your chimps on the first date. I want to interview them too. Check out the table manners and such. Oh and the video games thing...you must be easily distracted or we're going to have problems.
