Torrential Downpour, an entity unto itself, dreams and reshapes its own existence to live vicariously through the musicians it harnesses. Structured by the imagery of human, Torrential creates its arms, legs and body through the percussive force of Peter Costa. Using guitar and piano, Jason Volpe transforms his energy of pure love manifesting the heart and stomach of this holographic being. The lungs and throat, sustained only by vocal manipulator Prkr, naturally regulates breathing and filters unwanted toxins and energy resonance. All of this falling apart without the apt sense and control of bass player Matt Cece as the brain and eyes. Together, using a battery of harsh and hauntingly beautiful soundscapes, a voice and language are given to Torrential Downpour. A voice that struggles for its place in the collective unconscious. But through all of this, the soul always remains the same. A beauty that is unthinkable and unstoppable. A version of love you have yet to discover. Torrential is everything you've heard or haven't. Everything that is or isn't. Torrential Downpour is a reflection of you...because in truth, you are everything.

I am a composer and percussionist who enjoys conducting and mixing performances of my own works. I was born in 1988 in Savannah, Georgia, and currently live in Yorktown, Indiana. In addition to classical music for instruments and for electronic media, I compose metal, rock, and hip-hop, though I still try to approach this music using intellectual and/or experimental compositional techniques. I am also interested in further expanding the styles, genres, and compositional techniques that I incorporate. I received my Bachelor's Degree of Music from Ball State University, where I was rewarded the “Excellence in Music Composition” scholarship several times. I have also been certified in Advanced-level Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages through the American TESOL Institute, and taught English at Beijing Royal School in 2009.
