Artist History
Alexis Forge has been making music as long as he could pick up a hard object and bang it against another one. Various high school cock-rock bands kept him vaguely sane as a lad, but it wasn't until the early nineties he started to go loopy and knock up a few drum rhythms on the ol' Dr. Rhythm, limited heavily by his continuous eviction from the school studio. Then, circa 1998 the gods smiled on him and the bank approved a loan to buy a yamaha A3000 sampler which quickly destroyed his social life and confined him to the groove. And that, kiddies is how we get tracking, NONE OF THIS PRESS A BUTTON AND WALK AWAY NONSENSE. |
