A song never quite finished. Perhaps I will one day.
Dan's House Dan's House
Made while I was at Dan's house. There's a pattern forming here. Crappy.
Unemployment Unemployment
Made while I was unemployed. Imaginative I know. Some of my guitar in this one. Quite jazzy.
Prolific Too Prolific Too
A slightly orchestral electronica tune. I like listening to it whilst jogging.

I produce electronica Aztec Monkey. More precisely my music ranges from IDM to DnB to jazz influenced fromage. I write my music entirely for my own pleasure and benefit but having publicised it I've found that other people like them too.Band/artist history
I started making electronic music at a very early ages. I started by writing simple, monophonic tunes by programming BASIC on a spectrum 48k. Later on I started writing music on the Amiga using Aegis' Sonix. Although I can read musical notation, writing music in it was a added limitation to the software but at the time seemed wonderful compared to the Spectrum's single beep. Then after purchasing my first PC in the mid-90's I began writing electronic music in earnest. Since then my style has evolved and progressed until finally, in 2003, I wrote the first tune I was completely happy with: Monkey Tub Thumper. It was a tribute to Richard D James and named after his track "Monkey Drummer." Immediately afterwards I switched sequencer (Logic Pro) and had to relearn how to write music. As of about two years ago I finally regained primary control of the creative process and the result is the music you can hear now.Have you performed in front of an audience?Not yet, but having received various offers to play live I will be imminently...
Your musical influences
Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Megadeth, José González, Led Zeppelin are just the first five that came into my head. The entire list would be almost infinite.What equipment do you use?
A PC, old copy of Logic Platinum, Ableton Live 6, Adobe Audition, millions of VST plugins, a guitar and a midi keyboard.Anything else?
I'd like to mention some friends who also produce music which I really like. I don't think they are on sound click but they can be found by Googling. They are Ricko97 and DJ Beebeedee. I highly recommend them.
