This is me - my life in the form of music. Although my favorite type of music is progressive rock, I also liking writing solo acoustic songs, and have made some attempts at creating a few techno/industrial instrumental songs.
Why this name?
It was handy.
Do you play live?
I'm currently playing in a cover band for kicks and giggles.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Well, as the world changes it is up to us to adapt. So that is how I see it - it's not going to go away, so we might as well take advantage of it.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
It would have to be a damn good offer...
Band History:
I started playing guitar, drums, piano, and singing when I was in middle school. I have a love for music and poetry that will never die - so here I am simply making this stuff for my own and (hopefully) others' enjoyment.
Your influences?
The Smashing Pumpkins, TOOL, A Perfect Circle, Incubus, Filter, Staind, Lamb of God, Coldplay, Damien Rice, Khaki King, Bleed the Sky, Nine Inch Nails, etc., etc., etc.
Favorite spot?
Chicago, IL
Equipment used:
I am currently using a DigiDesign 002 rack with ProTools LE for basic mixing, and it serves as a pre-amp w/ phantom power for my AKG 3000 condenser microphone. For the drums, I am using a set of Roland V-Drums (with a TD-6V brain), a BOSS Overdrive/Distortion (OS-2) pedal for the distorted guitars and a Line-6 POD, an Ovation Celebrity guitar for the acoustic songs and some of the rock songs, a Yamaha RGX220DZ Electric Guitar and a Shecter C6 Hellraiser for the other rock songs.
Anything else...?
I would love to find a few people to get together with and begin performing - maybe eventually taking this project much more seriously. I live in Buffalo Grove - but willing to travel. E-mail me if you're interested for more information.
