Experimental

Obsolete Donkey is the solo project of Jaron Eldon. Jaron Eldon is a teenager living in a small town in Southern California. He is trying to preserve something that seems to have lost popularity, and that is having a texture, an atmosphere in his music, and to have some form of a theme in his music and albums so that you have actually been somewhere by the end of listening to the entire album. It's music with a purpose!
Band/artist history
Just started because I wanted to make music, can't remember when, but the website has a fairly accurate representation via the news posts as to when I began the solo project.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Never have, I did once in 7th grade but that was well before Obsolete Donkey, or me making good music for that matter. It would be fun to do it again, but I'd need more material.
Your musical influences
Steven Wilson is my greatest influence. Porcupine Tree Bass Communion Blackfield Opeth Chroma Key Kevin Moore Radiohead Dredg OSI The Beatles Tears for Fears Portishead Dream Theater Spock's Beard
What equipment do you use?
Ibanez something or other series electric guitar. Yamaha acoustic guitar. Squier P-Bass (ugh). Roland V-Club drumset. Cakewalk HomeStudio 2004. Various VSTs.
Anything else?
Jaron Eldon's ambient collaboration with Gavin Stewart and Pete Nigel. My collaboration with my cousin, songs mainly made using our mouths. No real instruments are used. Me, but this is all music for movie soundtracks.
