Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I, Sean McCormick, aka Seanicus, created my first "Toy Techno" track in 1999 (Midi composition, Anvil Studio). Which led to an unreleased, all midi composition, untitled demo in 2000. Upon acquisition of the sequencing program FL Studio, I "released" my second collectin of sounds and beats in 2003 entitled "Grappling Future" (FL Studio, midi keyboard). With a new laptop, Reason, and a midi keyboard, I have been working on my forthcoming "release" named "Degrees of Freedom", which will not be released as I have surpassed that project and will just continue my experimental trajectory into sound and music.

I find the music I like the best is that which tries to blur the lines between genres. Whether it be ska/punk, house/trance, electro/breaks, whatever, I find these "regions" to be the most interesting areas of music. just my 2 cents.
