Parapraxis
I have been making music now for about 8 years or so.. and have progressed a lot.. I have experimented with many different types of sound.. from noises that makes your head hurt to more ambient style stuff.. recently i have been making music for non profit games.. and that has been going well.. but i am soon to make a new cd that is more industrial / experimental.. with singing.. oh yea.. i have gone under many different names.. from cpx to x-bit to lift to the unresolved puppet.. to slef but Parapraxis has stuck now for a couple years..
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Like i said about 8 years now.. worked off and on with a friend of mine Dim Nostreak.. but we have had a falling out due to heroin addictions that we both share...
I recently was told i am now considered to be in remission... but uhh.. yea..... Maybe someday both Dim and myself will be strong enough to make music together.. but probably not.. considering such a large amount of our drug use happened when we made music together...
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Lets see.. Two times.. and was going to many other times but things always fell through.. no one really appreciates such things around here.. but those two times were awesome experiences...
Your musical influences
Anything having to do with Cevin Key and Ogre.. meaning.. Skinny Puppy, Download, Ohgr.. and so on.. and other groups ....anyone who is willing to explore sound in various ways pretty much sums up my influences
