Keane Douglas Wren
I primarily work with midi instruments, keyboards and samples.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
This would be long and detracted so I will say that I worked in the Des Moines Underground music scene from 84 to 94 in various guises until the scene was overtaken by my younger brother and his ilk to include Slipknot who-who would open for him as Exit or he would open for them. At that time, i had a local percussion band headed by a Nigerian that played coffee houses and risks taking bars. I also performed at raves with a Rhythmatist savant Lee Fergugasen, putting people into altered states through polyrhythms. I have been producing my best material over the last year!
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Not yet, but we will!!
