ABOUT

I was a Master Class Student in Composition w/ Lyle Mays -Pat Meteny Group for 3 years after finishing a 5 year dual maj. in engineering/Music at Berklee. A 2nd Degree in CS- Penn St. Current studies in particle/astrophysics/astronomy-observational. I have 15 Recordings on Stylus Records Philadelphia.(3 EPs ..2 casettes rest CDs). 2 Outstanding Publishing offers- not accepted -Barry Shrum(Groening's attorney-creator of the Simpsons- and John Luneau ESQ- Entertainment. I ran Webvelvet and currently - Magnetone llc- aVintage Recording Gear firm- featuring all hand made/wired valve - based equipment in the style of the Golden Era. The last four(4) recordings feature ALL sounds created by Magnetone Microphones/Preamps and variMu Limiters. Thinks of me as the Tm Scholz (Boston Band..) with much better music/voice/harmonies and sound equipment. I had a Recording Band with Jon Medeski of Medeski Martin and Wood when I was a toddler- for two years. He then formed Medeski/Martin and Wood.
