I am an original musician from Orlando FL trying to expand the boundaries of electronic music. I got big into the dance music thing back in the early / mid-90s when I first started going to the all night raves. I've been fascinated with technology and computers ever since I was a little kid, I've also been big into complex, emotional music, so the two worlds collided when I was introduced to progressive / UK house / trance back then. I bought some turntables, started mixing up some records, and got bored with playing other peoples' music, so I started getting into trackers, sequences, early freeWare / shareWare apps, and it just grew from there. The Active Ingredient sound has jumped around from house, trance, experimental, ambient, and recently getting into lots of drum & bass production. I've been making songs since 98 and would like to get some feedback from the public since the radio stations and record labels won't give me any, hopefully you guys out there will like some of it.Band/artist history
More on that later, here's a link to my site...
http://www.active-ingredient.comHave you performed in front of an audience?I don't play live yet, none of my early stuff was really bar/club-friendly, so I'm trying to put together some stuff that falls along some type of genre that can make it more club-friendly. Translation, I'm still finding my 'sound'.
