According to the ancient Norse lore (like the power's of Thor passed down from the fjords).. In the late 20th Century, a 16 year old version of myself adopted "BeastMasteR" as a pseudonym for underground forums and message boards. I obviously share the name with characters from an 80's movie and fantasy video game; but as a kid playing soccer in my home town, a bunch of side-line parents used to call me an "animal" and a "beast" on the field. I put the cleats down for art school and started making music soon after that.. Eventually I dropped the vowels for the short-handed "BstMstR" and this haphazard alias turned into an artist "go by" for better or for worse.

Yes, I cut my teeth as a performing artist in 2007. I've played all over New England, New York, and the Gathering of the Juggalos in Illinois. Special moments, besides that, include Mass Cann. Benefit ('08), Worcester Palladium Upstairs and Rock The Ink Festival in Providence, RI ('09).

It affords artists larger audiences.

In some dimension, yes.
