Born in the midwest, ping-ponged between the south and northeast.  

Danger 5: The Perfect CdR:
1 part heavy drum
1 part screaming-distorted-processed guitar
1 part synth 
Shaken and stirred (until your arm falls off)
Garnish with attitude

I make music... by the good graces of God :). I'm trying to get into video game composing and am eager and willing to team up with someone if anyone is creating an adventure/rpg game. If you know of anyone and you read this, please let me know. 

Thanks in advance.
