Artist description I am a producer and dj of underground hip hop and electronic music. I dig deep in the crates to include hazy recollections of the past which I then recombine and destroy on the turntables and my battle ready sp 303. I create music from the detritus of a throwaway art form. I am inspired by those have gone before (Axelrod, Perrey, Riddle, Don Ellis, and more) those now active and the music of those yet unborn. If I cannot find an existant sound that matches what the synapses of my mind conjure up, I manufacture it; through effects manipulation, tone generators, rhythm machines, and electrically deformed (circuit bent) children’s toys, I conjure the new sound.

Artist History I began experimenting with recording and mixing when I was 11 years old using only two walkmen and a mixer. I recorded my first real song when I was 15. Now armed with crates of vinyl, a Mac, a SP-303 sampler, effects processors, drum machines, live instruments and circuit bent toys, I try to bring music from my mind into the digital realm.
