Froggy, swampy, naughty... Xzentradi had lucid dreams about creating music since he was a kid. Him and his brother started out producing music in a project called Ouroboros. He also produced beats for Hip Hop project KB Mob and was a key player in the early bass music scene.

Currently living in the city of Denver, Xzentradi’s music ranges from psychedelic bass, neuro, glitch and experimental trap. Always taking his crowd on a hyperdimensional journey, Xzentradi is sure to have you surfing on omniversal soundwaves and swampy soundscapes.

Check out me and Chance Odekirk's creation  called Turnstyles which is essentially a huge midi controller with 4 ft. discs and motor controlled rotational art machine. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rFfsQx064U&#13;

Alterra Project brings together a trio of musical tech wizards: Charlie Bartlett (Xylem), Dane Andruszko (Okari) and Rory Gordziejko (Kwah, Tea Tree) hailing from three corners of the UK, coming together by the light of the full moon, mostly in darkness (as producers tend to be nocturnal) to mix up their fresh beats, squelchy bass and sweet melodies in a digital melting pot of aural delights.
