Fife was born and bred to be a producer. On the night he was conceived an eclectic concoction of dance music played in 11.2 surround sound (that's right he was a bass baby 'cause there were two subs in the room). While growing inside the womb, his mother nurtured his undeveloped ears by pushing speakers against her stomach to send ripples of sound waves through her uterus. It was in this stage of life that Fife, similar to Beethoven, learned to feel the music before he could even hear it. Before he could walk or talk he mimicked the stupid sounds he made with his mouth by using a modular synthesizer that hung above his crib like a mobile. It's really no wonder that his first words were "cutoff envelope". When young Fife was just 20 months old he decided to make his first album. While crying over the profoundness of the KLF's album 'Chill Out', Fife sampled the sound of his own tears. He brilliantly down sampled it into 22.05kHz and slapped on the meanest mother of LFO cutoffs ever conceived. It was here, for the first time in history, that a wub-wub was ever conceived and an entirely new genre was born: BabyStep. Unfortunately, as all good parents do, the sounds of the wubwub were found to be too alien and unsuitable for a growing baby boy - especially one aspiring to make actual music. His parents disabled the LFO on his filter cutoff and removed all his spare patch cables. Thus history forgot that baby Fife was the founder. Eventually some guy who could only imitate the original beauty of the sound was given credit this new genre that was disgracefully named 'Dub-Step'.

Today Fife travels all over the world playing his music. Usually it's only coming out of his own pair of headphones, but sometimes he makes sounds come out of some really big speakers while alone in his own room. He commands a powerful dominion of fans who are sometimes willing to travel entire city blocks and the promise of free food to listen to his sonic manipulations.

Who knows what the future holds. Probably great things. Currently, Fife is working on a new artist album that will redefine what music is. We don't want to give away too much but he's been able to find several frequencies that when working together call upon dragons and summon the never before seen or made episodes of firefly that browncoats everywhere have sold their souls to see. In addition, he's been secretly building a studio on the darkside of the moon because everything sounds so gnarly in outer space. We're so, so excited for you to be part of this epic journey and we want to thank all of you for your ongoing interest and support.

♥, Fife

Seriously though, some day I'll make something worth listening to and then we can just all hang out and talk about stuff.
