Cognitive Connections 007 - Uakoz

Brandon Heinz is no stranger to long nights alone in front of a computer. Growing up he spent most of his time playing computer games into the early hours of the morning. All this time spent leveling up Mages and Warriors was merely training for the countless hours he would spend leveling up his sound design. Hunting through dungeons for hidden loot only helped hone his skills to find the most unknown dance-floor bombs. For over five years now, Brandon has still spent most of his time alone in front of a computer, but now its a near complete focus on producing some of the most forward thinking, dance-floor focused techno coming from the West Coast.
