Artist History I first started playing guitar at the age of 13 in the mid 80's. I grew up playing and listening to such groups as Rush, Van Halen, Metalica, Ozzy etc. consequently, Metal was and still is my prefered guitar style. It wasn't untill the early to mid 90's that I heard Techno for the first time. I instantly fell in love with the pulsating rythems that seemed to somehow FORCE me to move and dance. Since the music I create is mostly for my own amusement, it's painfully obvious how it all ties in. A Roland guitar synthesizer and Windows 98 computer is all I need to keep myself grooven along now days. Should you decide to listen to any of it, all I ask is that you write and give me an honest opion of it. Is it something others might like or just total crap? Few of my very early works were never recorded although there are some if one was REALLY inclined to dig that far. My very first studio recordings was with the rock group Xavior in 1991 where I was the lead singer and guitarist from 1990-1993. These early recordings can be heard on the Xavior album 21st Century Drug which I believe went WOOD last year! My music took an extreme back seat all through the late 90's up untill the ladder part of 1999 when I discovered how Guitar Synthesizers and Computers can produce most any sound imaginable. Since then my love for music and computers aswell, have combined into what I have come to see as a "One man band." To take guitar playing to "the next level," I believe music is in for a huge leap in the coming years. The new technology out there is totaly awesume aswell as the unavoidable internet, so it's no wonder many artists are turning towards computers as opposed to triditional band setting. :( (Sad isn't it?) I could only be impressed seeing my music on something such as Napster or whatever, so don't worry about it! Keep the internet free, share it, enjoy it!!! God Bless...
