Your musical influences
I think everything we hear is an influence in some way--and that's not really a cop out. But as musical acts go, I can safely say that fans of Front 242, Kraftwerk and Orbital might notice their overt influence in my sound, at least rhythmically. Then you're just as likely to catch a whiff of pop stuff or something artsy like Wire or Magazine. We have varied music tastes and it shows in the music.
What equipment do you use?
Software=FL Studio 4, Stomper Hyperion, Audacity
Hardware=Juno-60, Korg MS-2000, Alesis QS-6, guitars, effects pedals, etc.
