Artist History After singing and playing guitar in various rock bands in NY from 1992 - 1996, I was getting bored with rock music. At the same time, I hated electronic music. I didn't get it and didn't care to. After meeting some friends who listened to a lot of electronic music, I slowly began enjoying the beats and sounds that were so foreign to me. As my interest grew, so did my desire to create the music. I saw a rebirth in my passion for music. I bought turntables and started spinnig records. It wasn't as satisfying as writing music and I wanted to create the music I was spinning. After two frustrating years of buying equipment, learning MIDI and digital audio, I am finally at a point where I have a much greater understanding and appreciation for the music I once hated. I am working towards a live set in hopes of bringing a more "live" feel to the genre of electronic music, where I can perform with my equipment, layering tracks and manipulating sounds reflective of the audiences energy.
