The name is a mix between my own first name and my former (modified) DJ handle. Over time it has become like an alter-ego and ironically more people know me by this than my real name.

I've done a few spots and am no stranger to stage or performance (beginning with signing for special events as far back as elementary school). Practice can become tedious and I don't think I will ever fully get over the pre-show anxiety, but once I'm in my zone feeling the flow that anxiety transforms into one of the greatest rushes one can feel short of skydiving.

The internet is one of the greatest inventions given to the world in the past 25 years. Because it connects people in ways not possible before. Unfortunately, it is abused like any other great tool we've made, but that's human nature I'd suppose. As for what it's done for me musically it's awesome!

Right now I'm deeply 'indie', but there are 4 record companies that I'd seriously consider. Astralwerks, Moonshine, Pandisc (if it's still around), and Sony!

I began making my own music (programming) in 2001 and over time it has led to what you hear today. Right now it's all software based, but I do have plans on making the move into hardware fairly soon!
A side goal I have is to learn how to do the lighting & effects for live performances. I already have a fairly decent grasp on the wiring of a multiple speaker system. Since I am now operating on a system with a 4t/2s ratio (much like in a car). And have done the work on two of my previous vehicals.

Artist-wise, there are way too many to name offhand. For the styles that induce inspiration in me presently are as follows- Funk, Gaelic/celtic, Old skool Hip-hop, Disco, House, Classical, Progressive (instrumental only) Rock, & some Industrial.

Where ever there's a good vibe, beer sales, and access to electricity (for the speakers n amps, mang)

My computer and various programs.
