Artist History I've been doing this since December '98. Released the Pulse EP June 15, 1999 as an EP of some songs I made on my computer previous to my knowledge of mp3.com's existance. On September 23, 1999 I released my debute album Systemation. This was my first serious musical album. It has some major flaws, but most people seem to like.. October 31, 1999 I released japanesEP. I created this EP to keep me occupied while I thought of how I was going to create my next album (which is going to be called 'material'). I really liked how this EP turned out. Just released my latest LP, material, February 23, 2000. I'm really impressed and excited with this new album. I feel I'm finally starting to reach a sound, though I do mess around with different styles.

Press Reviews The music of this artist is infectious with its terrific mix of guitar, bass and keyboard, infused with electronic sound effects. A very pleasant addition are the vocals. Mike Auteri has an unusual style of singing that's very attractive and original.
