| Biography: | I come from California originally. I started really listening to music in my late teens. I started out on great progressive rock like Yes, Spock's Beard and Kansas. Since then, I've developed an interest in many different styles of music. All kinds of stuff from Swirl 360 and Rooney, to early 20th century classical from Stravinsky, to the Beatles, to video game music, movie soundtracks, and a bunch of good music in between.
I started playing keyboard in the late 90's and I've been playing ever since. It's a skill I recommend to every musician, because these days you can emulate just about any sound you would hear in the real world using a synth. I would say my style gravitates towards Dance and Electronica, though my passion is to make it with more heart than those styles usually have. Maby a kinder, gentler electronica? Back in 2003, I finally released my first full length album, Popularity Not Included, using nothing more than my keyboard and some computer software for recording and drum beats.
I love the fact that you can produce a quality musical work these days with basically just a computer and an instrument. For recording software, I use Cool Edit Pro. It works great, and Pro Tools is just too much of a learning curve for me. In 2004, I released my second CD, Regeneration, which was a little more melodic and better sounding than the first. It also features some of my best work to date. Since then, I've been figuring out how I want my third album to be. It's going to be different from anything I've ever done, and I'm excited about it.
Anyways, enjoy all the music, and if you want any of it on your harddrive or portable music device, the songs are pretty cheap to download. Besides the fact that you'll have it on your harddrive if you buy it, it will be a high quality mp3.
Be sure to check some of the other artists out on this site.
I will always believe that the best music out there is the stuff you've got to look for.
