ABOUT

Hi, I've got a crazy passion for electronic music, breakbeat techno, electronica, and glitch hop. I've been playing the drums for over 20 years and had 'gigged' almost once a week for 13 years or so at one time. I own an electronic kit but I often practice and gig with an acoustic kit. I would like to just focus on drums more and record original songs with MIDI. I have written a few songs but I'd love to find a keyboardist or programmer or anyone creating original sounds to help play or sequence synths and other electronic sounds. I'd love to create electronic music with tons of original sounds, busy rhythms, with alot of intensity, but emotional music with real words or meaning that convey true feeling. I like danceable electronic songs with a drum track that sound like it is played on a kit, not always programmed, but with synthetic interesting sounds.
You can hear some of my older work at myspace.com/synthbomb. I have recently learned how to computer program in python and might like to use that make synths or aid in music production in other ways.
