I've been writing music since I was about 16. I started out recording on my folks' old desktop with a terrible USB mic. I eventually upgraded some equipment, learned a new program, and have been posting ever since. I'm originally from the bay area and have lived there off and on for about 13 years, but have lived and grown in South Lake Tahoe for 20 years of my life, so this is my true home. I've played in several bands and with dozens of musicians here, professionally, since I was about 16 years old. I love it, it's my full time job, but my dream is to have my original songs reach as many people as possible. Please hit the like button, the follow button, all that good stuff, and thanks for checking me out!

Bird of Prey is bay area native Torin Goodnight. Pursuing electronic music for over a decade, he has refined his sound and style to offer something unique and powerful to the electronic music community. He aims to provide an alternative to the current trends, where focused intent and sound waves convene to create the circumstances for magic. Bird of Prey offers a cohesive blend of organic qualities with modern psychedelic bass music. His fusion of elements, both natural and synthetic, create an engaging bio-digital landscape that leaves little to the imagination.

After several years of being heavily involved in the psy-trance scene, he developed his sound into something that more accurately represented his imagination, in hopes of conveying how he feels about music and it's potential to transform our every day experience into something magical.
