Artist description:
One man band. Writes, plays, and programs all the music. Breaks the norm on styles and emotions in songs.
Press Reviews:
Honored to be currently featured in multiple Cloud10.tv shows. Be sure to watch them. "JiXeR is all over the place, jumping from subdued Techno excursions to Lo-Fi ballads to synthetic Metal with looping guitar tracks over stiff programming."
-E. Lurker (listen.com)
"UNBELIEVEABLE!!!! This is really something I can get into. I love the blend of the electronics and guitars. It really adds a "rock" feel to it, but still keeping it digital. One of the better artists I have listened to in a long time."
-Your_Worst_Nightmare (listen.com)
"Quirky breakbeat tracks wrapped in snarled electronic textures and rock references."

Why this name?
For those who know me, they also know where the name came from.
Do you play live?
Haven't played a live show in years. That just seems to long. Not many electronic artists in my area, and it wouldn't really make for a good show to program everything.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I don't see it as a major problem.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Without a doubt.
Band History:
JiXeR has been envolved with music composition and programming for many years. He originated in Houston's own, "Tangible Blue". Which later went their seperate ways due to some personal problems with the artists.
Your influences?
BassReaction, Ill Nino, Enchanted, BT, Delerium, Fatboy Slim, Korn, Crystal Method, Deftones, Depeche Mode, Single Celled Orchestra, Winx, The D.O.C., House of Pain, Tool, and many many more.
Favorite spot?
San Deigo, CA
Equipment used:
Apple Dual G5 Powermac, Logic Pro 7.2, Roland JP-8000, Roland XP-60, Roland SH-101, Roland MC-303, Roland JX-3P, Boss DR-660, Tascam FW-1082, Korg ElectribeA, Ibanez AX120, Fender Strat, Danelectro Fab Tone distortion, DigiTech RP20 Valve effects processor, Electrix WaRpFaCtOrY, misc stomp boxes, and programs like Cakewalk v8.0(w/ fx 1 & 2), ReBirth 338 v2.0, Stomper, LDB, Magix, Vaz Modular, Cool Edit 96, Analog X's Audio Arp, and many others.
Anything else...?
I'm a major Apple & Roland fan. They make the best equipment in the world. I wouldn't play anything else...well, much at least.
