ABOUT

I'm signing up mostly because I'm looking for musicians to play on my projects.

I was once a touring musician around the country, but I am currently a home-body online entrepreneur that makes music at my computer in the middle of nowhere, Mississippi. I started with piano (I'm not proficient there), then electric bass via 90s rock & punk & metal, and then moved on to experimental music along with a band called Questions in Dialect. I've played with other instruments such as hammer dulcimer and vibraphone, and then fell in love with electronic music. Now most of what I do electronic either mixed with avant-garde, rock, r&b, or southern rock. I love film scores and video game music. I first fell in love with music from playing games like Mega Man 2 in the 80s.

I'm interested in working with or producing music from any artist that wants to sound unique or that might sound conventional but desires a unique addition. I have played in cover bands before but it's really not my thing now so please don't contact me about that.
