I have always had an interest in music and sound manipulation. As a kid I would use a cassette dubbing deck to conduct musique concrete - like experiments with my father's not so exciting music collection to try and make it more interesting. I gravitated towards hanging out with music heads and musicians in high school, attempting to start a rock band and then joining the industrial group Interface2X in the mid-90's. After moving to Chicago to study Sound at the Art Institute of Chicago in '97 was really when my music abilities started to take off.
As a composer of electronic music for nearly 2 decades and a guitar player for about as long, I feel pretty comfortable creating sounds using both live instrumentation and trapped within a computer. Since then, I have developed a grasp of improvisation on several different instruments including drumkit, electronic drums, keyboards, midi-controllers, and most extensively bass guitar, as well as experimental studio techniques in audio production.
