as a collector i've created/curated soundtracks for art exhibitions, contemporary dance & fashion shows (in addition to playing records in bars, cafes, clubs & outdoor parties). my personal preference is to take old records & try to make something new. it's a rather humbling experience to select second-hand records: all too often the dead dreams & failed aspirations of previous artists. vinyl itself is an obscure & obsolete media, yet sourcing them locally sustains local economy, provides positive transactions, often doubles the value of the small investment & occasionally leads to social contact that seems priceless. there are plenty of people already playing the game of consuming the latest rave reviews & selecting whatever this month's fashionable sub-genre happens to be. they do it well. i choose to do it differently. hopefully you'll enjoy listening to the mixes.

-Founder of the EDM/Sound part of Burning Man, in 1992. 
-Former member of legendary band Psychic TV.
-Toured with counter-culture icons Timothy Leary and Robert Anton Wilson, accompanying them with my original music while they spoke.

-I've worked with musicians across many genres including Moby, A Perfect Circle, and Skinny Puppy and always looking for interesting collabs.

I'm a certified strategic hypnotherapist and try to incorporate it into my music and mixes I produce to take people on an inner journey.
