Thank you for taking the time to visit my SoundCloud page. First, if you favorite or comment on anything I want to say thank you right now! I may not always be able to respond, but I try and always notice. If you like what you hear, and choose to follow me, I will gladly follow back as well. I'm slow to respond often, apologies up front,  but I do greatly appreciate all followers. I also will "unfollow" back if such is the case. Please don't follow just to get comments or "likes", my slow response times will only disappoint you. I am listening, and I care, but I am not into the popularity contests or use of comments as currency that so many seem to think SoundCloud is all about.  Your value as an artist is not qualified by numbers of followers, comments or likes. It is in the joy of creating something you love. Cool? 

 If you want to ask me anything at all, I wold love to hear what you have to say. 

I make ambient electronic music, sometimes beat driven, sometimes drone. I've always loved chill electronic music like early TangerineDream, Mark Isham, Steve Roach. A few years ago (2009) I decided to try it out myself but with a little twist. I make everything using only iOS devices and music apps. It is a relatively new platform that allows a great amount of freedom, quality, and inspiration. 
I produced my first album, "Technopolis Lost" using some of the earlier iOS technology. It was released by my first label FatelessFlows Records in October 2011. The 2nd anniversary of my first album is being re-issued by Apptronica with a new cover and a previously unreleased bonus track, on BandCamp exclusively. Since then the technology has grown in huge leaps forward with greater design, capability, and power. 
I'm trying to take full advantage of the increased options as I currently work on my next album. The next one will be a little different in that it is less beat driven and more deep chill ambience. I will post on occasion a work in progress (WIP) throughout my process creating my next body of work. Slowly these postings will result in removing older tacks. 

Comments welcome, and so are private emails. Comments of a sarcastic nature unrelated to the music will not be tolerated. Crazed lunatics with nothing of substance to offer are not welcome, and I won't respond to those kind. They will be muted.  I believe in positive intent.   

Thank you, say hello if you like.
