I am a bedroom musician of sorts, since it's not really my day job (unix sysadmin, high profile site, boring computer shit, etc).
My musical output is strange because I come from a weird musical upbringing as an opera singer, marching trumpet player, composition student, free improvisor and musicologist.
I love to spin house music and mix it up with broken beat funk, and knew house only from tacking myself to the foreskin of smaller underground clubs in chicago, where i even ended up as a resident dj and performance collaborator.
I've performed alongside some of the most accomplished musicians of my lifetime, and will never forget those moments as long as I live.
I live for improvisation.
My Gear
When I DJ, I play mostly vinyl. But I do burn digital tracks onto CD to throw into the mix. Some great stuff is simply too good to pass up.
I sequence studio tracks using Digital Performer and used to have a much more extensive hardware setup before I did a little life reset a couple of years back.
Otherwise, I perform live with various looping samplers, hardware fx, and an arsenal of toys and natural objects to sample while I improvise.

I have a brand new free netlabel release out now, on the Vancouver netlabel Xynthetic.

I've been experimenting more with jagged and sliced rhythmic structures joined together with deep dimensions.
Hope you all dig it, let me know what you think...
It's been a long time since I've had any spare time to visit, read, listen or write anything... the new job takes up the bulk of my time these days, which I can't complain about since the bills are getting paid, but it sure makes me miss being able to hang out on em411. This weekend will be a good one to stay at home and do some synth building, I'll post something soon about what's happening hardwarewise in craque studios!
