Artist description Straight out of Raleigh's Sanderson High School, DJ LawnGnome is a guitarist who pitts his guitar against techno/electronic music in a battle to the death. But it's not all about the techno. LawnGnome's beats and synthesized effects-driven backing tracks play a key role while the guitar cuts in and out like a knife with melodies that, sometimes, don't even sound like guitar. --written by a friend Junior at SHS who likes to slack and make music. That's me in a nutshell.

Music Style I hate confining myself to one genre...this is mostly experimental techno, soon to feature rap elements...for more general stuff, see www.mp3.com/chrisalbert, my other site (up now!)

Musical Influences DigiTech Inc., Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, The Offspring, The Crystal Method, the amazing DJ Skrabble, Methods of Mayhem, Creed, Metallica, more...

Similar Artists actually, I don't listen to alot of techno, but I have fun creating it...there are a couple of my songs that sound kind of like The Crystal Method

Artist History I started dabbling in electronic music over the week of December 23, 2000. I have been playing guitar, however, for almost a year. I know it doesn't sound too promising, but just give my stuff a try.
