A sort of "protest song" envisioned as a techno track?
electronic pop
I am a musical journeyman, and have been recording (on and off) in a home studio, since about 1988. I experiment with different forms, methods, and styles,
I began to recording on a cassette 4-track (Tascam Porta-One) in 1988, and enjoying the whole process of recording sounds, I then purchased an Atari ST, running Cubase Vs1. I moved on to a digital 8-track in about 1998 (Roland VS-880) and then to a more modern mac setup, which I'm using now. I am a visual artist, as well as a musical experimenter, an dI believe this does inform the way I work.

Lyrics
The Balance Poisoning our water tables, depleting the sea, melting polar caps release a viral load, and that's the end of you and me? Perhaps its all inevitable, it's too late to start again, we should have stuck to vegetables and fruits, and our religion should have been Zen? Wandering around my backyard, seeing all the creatures going about their day, Lady-bugs and Slater's and the mighty spider, waiting to dine on the Aphid's (hooray!) and tiny black ants, make a line entrancing me, Heading into this infinite realm, web's on my face, the smell of grass is everywhere, Why are we poisoning this planet, so happy and free, who are we, in this great chain of being, nurture the planet, restore the balance and we'll be free!
