Artist History
Music has always been a passion. The emergence of this solo project is a result of much of trial and error. I've spent many years in a perpetual state of study, focusing on various underground cultures, and the music and people with in each of them respectively.This is a brief reflection of the volumes of wisdom I've gained. I believe in rhythm and it's ultimate effect on the human soul and body. This is the result of the homework I've done, lovingly, for the past 16 years. I've been making music for the past 13 years in various forms, all self-taught. I began on guitar back in the mid 80's. I quickly tired of guitar for lack of complete control over the entire music experience and took more interest in synthesizers. I got my first synth back in '88, but it didn't record. I finally got a "real" synth with a sequencer in early '98, and it all took shape from there.I've worked in a few bands over the past few years doing a lot of industrial material and trying to drop a little funk into it, but no one was buying. My heart wasn't really into it, though and I found I had better luck writing my own music. My best friend, Jesse and I, decided we were going to take on the party scene from the other side of the ticket counter, so he took up the turn tables, and I got into the composition side of things. Now, he's one of the best trance DJs I've ever heard, and I'm releasing my own material finally.I want to thank those of you that have stayed with me in spite of my obsession for music and a good party. I'm already having fun; I'm just doing this so everyone else can have it too! Finally picked up by local upstart label, EMP Records, I have finally gotten the chance to showcase my music to a much bigger audience. |

Steve Anthony. Everything here is my own. |

Instruments
A prime blend of Roland, Korg, Ensoniq, Alesis, Behringer, and Mackie technology. Put it this way, it took a while to find just the right gear, and even longer to get the cash together! I think I will end up owing my first -born for this! |

Albums
Pneuma EP. Full-length, still under construction. |
