I'm the DJ-Producer-Artist type with a major passion for remixing. A passion that nearly predates the days of beat matching with cassette tapes & turntables. LOL. For years I've taken pride in being equally versatile in musical genres. From rockin' the decks in the clubs to beats in the studio I'd go from Dance to Hip-Hop, Old School to Country, if and when I need to, but HOUSE MUSIC is where my heart lies. Bottom line. I'm a deep, gargae, 2 Step and funky house guy. However my current quest is to find a sound that will encompass the deep and funky with those "trancy and electro" overtones and I'll keep trying one beat at a time.
Keys.
SONAR X1...for now
I'm mostly all virtual synth at the moment. Makes for easy studio transporting.
