Band/artist history
I formed FreedomAndForgiven in 2005 after burning both my hands, and waiting for them to heal. I have been playing guitar since I was 5, and burning both my hands and having to take a break from playing really took a toll on me because music is a huge part of my life. So during the healing process I picked up some computer programs, and started producing electronic music to satisfy my music needs until my hands healed. I still produce some electronic music even though I am back to playing the guitar, and soon will begin to incorporate a lot more guitar into the electronica.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Yes. I play at a lot of clubs both in Missouri, and Illinios. Starting next year we will hopefully begin an out of state tour. I have had some good, and bad "special" moments when playing live. From getting to chill back stage with A Plea For Purging, opening for Wednesday 13's Gunfire 76 to having all the stage monitors go out, and my amp almost blow up on stage.

A few of the elements in this track are spot-on for Psy Trance. I think you should try a Psy remix, or hook up with a Psy producer and collaborate. Many Psy-heads on SoundClick would benefit from such a fine guitar riff/sound.
I'm really digging the way you use that fomant-filter, and the complex rhythms in this track are sublime! :D
The Rave/Techno fusion works well. Strong dancefloor rhythms throughout. This takes me back listening to this... Enjoyed it m8.
That 10 second intro grabbed my attention right from the off. :) As Hardcore goes, I think it needs an extra layer of sound to fill it out in some sections. Would be good with an off-beat hoover, taking it more towards the Hard House sound in my opinion.
Stunning use of filter with that sharp rise and fall on the synth Sir! :D
