TalixZen
TalixZen is insane, I swear. Dudes got no attention span whatsoever. Writes a song in half an hour and will call it done. No 2 songs sound the same and almost none of them can ever be fitted into any existing genre name. Everything is different in some way. Everything is an experiment.
TalixZen grew up listening to records that popped and crackled, tapes that dragged, and cd's that skipped. Now he tries to imitate those sounds "ON PURPOSE"!!!! Weirdo.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Grew up in Nova Scotia. Learned how to DJ in Halifax. Started writing tracks around the same time. Moved to Toronto and haven't looked back.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I DJ. I play on my laptop. I sometimes use guitar pedals and stuff to make it more interesting. I guess you'd call it playing live.
