Laroche
I've been working on various electronica projects for about 3-4 years now. I'm a solo producer with a modest home studio, and love Softsynths. I've done a couple soundtrack projects, nothing serious, and have a couple of VERY small limited-edition (aka 50 copies or less) releases containing some earlier work of mine.
Most of my stuff is downtempo, very hiphop influenced but I love the sound of raw synths so I'm trying to mix it all together.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?

Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Unfortunately not, but thats coming soon. I'm working on a live electronica set including me on synths, turntables, and guitar, all caught up using some sort of loop machine. That way I can improvise and add layers as I see fit... this way, every show I do will be different.
Your musical influences
I'm HUGELY influenced by Dj-Krush, Tricky, and all the other kinds of darkish downtempo beats. Rockwise I'm a classic rock fan, but my influces are really geared more towards the DJ realm of hiphop. Hi-tek definetly one of my favorite producers as well.
Electronically, I love Electro-House, and would name names but I don't know shit about the genre :)
What equipment do you use?
Midicontroller, Turntable, Guitar, SoftSynths (Reason and Abelton Live), couple other little machines.
