Artist description I sit at home and thump out beats using real homegrown samples from actual drum machines. Only the drums are programmed. All of the instrumentation is played live. There is no MIDI going on here. I feel like it reflects the soul of the music more and is alos more representational of real organic music. Its more human. I make loops,samples, and noise with a Pentium II 400mz, a Roland Juno-60, a casio M-1, electric bass, 1963 Gretch hollow bodied guitar and my voice. I record these on to a 16 track digital recorder and Voila! My goal is to press vinyl someday. My music marries well with psycho-somatic narcotics.
