Artist description
I'm a college student at the University of Minnesota majoring in Electrical Engineering and minoring in music. I'm a bass singer and I play guitar, French Horn, and compose electronic music. After college I plan on touring and recording in a band for a living (and maybe recording with my studio). I was in a band called Mandamus Frustum in high school. I loved those boys and we rocked Hopkins High School out on a regular basis. Now, I'm writing my own music (which is quite different). I'm trying to keep my styles as open as possible. I write primarily on guitar and I've got a home studio I've been building for a few years. My middle name is being changed to "Danger" and I'm a self proclaimed Master of Funk, although I don't have the fascility to write a decent funk song just yet :( |

Music Style
Eclectic... whatever is music to my ears. My style is one of jumbled ideas and spontaneity. I often have loops in the background because I don't own a drum set (and because loops can be really cool). My guitar work is the product of fooling around, not out of melodic composition. Most of my songs are probably roughly classified as post alternative rock but I have a hard time sticking to anything. |
