In the early 90's, I lived in San Diego and was a member of Crash Worship, playing musique concrète style tape loops and processing effects, particularly the Digitech RDS digital delay.
I moved to NYC, set up a studio on the lower east side, and started working on putting together a band called Action Daddy. That carried on for about ten years, during which the studio relocated to Williamsburg and the digital recording revolution happened.
Music posted here was originally recorded and composed on all manner of gear - ADAT tape recorders, Roland and Tascam samplers, Logic 2, etc. - but mostly finished up with Digital Performer.
In 1995 I had a cup of coffee with Mackie as a sponsored artist for the 1604 mixer.
Since 2003 I've done video art and projection visuals with Psychic TV.

Management for PALAYE ROYALE

Palaye Royale is managed exclusively by The Parliament

The fashion-art rock band Palaye consisting of Remington Leith, Sebastian Danzig, Emerson Barrett has been named champions of MTV's "Musical March Madness" 2014. They are the first unsigned act ever to compete in and win this fan-voted tournament. The global Samsung Galaxy Note commercial that features Palaye Royale's single "Get Higher" continues to make an impression and make history.

Songwriters, performers, rockstars, co-producers, filmmakers, champions. Years ahead of their time, frontman Remington Leith, guitarist and organist Sebastian Danzig and drummer Emerson Barrett formed Palaye Royale in late 2011 and are now champions of MTV's "Musical March Madness," now in its fifth year. The history-making band is the first unsigned act ever to be fan-voted to compete in the NCAA-style music competition, pitting 64 bands against one another that ultimately saw Palaye Royale defeating Linkin Park in the championships. Palaye Royale can now call themselves victors beating out several major acts in the process including Vampire Weekend, Coldplay, Bastille, Tokio Hotel, We Are The In Crowd and finally Linkin Park.

"It's been incredible," says Sebastian Danzig. "From the beginning, it was all fan-voted to get nominations. I think we tweeted once or twice and it snowballed into this thing where we got a call from MTV and the fan response has been quite brilliant."

Palaye Royale has played shows with Camp Freddy at LA's The Roxy and performed on the same bill as Stone Temple Pilots' Scott Weiland at The Viper Room with a who's who of rock & roll royalty in attendance.

"When you put yourself into this world where you have stars watching your show like Billy Morrison, Steven Tyler, Billy Idol, Dave Navarro, Courtney Love, Billy Duffy, Matt Sorum, Slash, Moby, Linda Perry and Steve Stevens, these people you look up to and idolize first-hand, right up in your face it's far greater than anything on a computer," says Sebastian Danzig. "If the internet goes down, that world doesn't exist. It's brilliant, it's the work and dedication that went into every single day that led to this moment."

A winning mentality has always been top-of-mind for the guys, whose last several months have been a whirlwind. Samsung Galaxy Note hand-picked Palaye Royale's "Get Higher" for a commercial that aired globally on digital billboards in London's Piccadilly Circus, Madrid, Spain and Singapore's Orchard Road in December 2013 - once again making history - as the first-ever unsigned act integrated into Samsung branding. In the illustrated and interactive ad spot, the trio's recent hit, the infectious retro "Get Higher" is the focal point with all members of Palaye Royale using Samsung products in their everyday routine - checking their Samsung watch for their tour schedule, drawing on the Note tablet, playing video and even walking down the legendary Abbey Road with devices in hand. Nearly closing in on 1 Million views on YouTube, the music video for "Get Higher" is quickly catching on with fans and brands as a favorite. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3feE0RCLsw

Palaye Royale kicked off their career with debut single "Morning Light" in early 2012, garnering 20 Million+ views on YouTube. The introspective, coming-of-age tune cemented the band's fan base, known as Soldiers of the Royal Council, which currently includes 75 fan groups globally, including Germany, Ireland, Scotland, Australia, The Philippines, Brazil, UK and France. Palaye Royale's Soldiers of the Royal Council are part of a youth revolution and movement in music that is making history for the band, building via social media and powering their impressive view counts for their self-created music videos, which they call art films as well as attention around MTV's "Musical March Madness." Palaye Royale has also performed a string of successful sold-out west coast dates in California and Las Vegas.

"For us, we've been passing out flyers to actual human beings on a weekly basis," says Sebastian Danzig. "You can post on Facebook and Twitter all you want, but it doesn't mean you're going to get bodies at your show. But because of our presence and the way we dress, people don't expect us to hand out flyers, but we do the work. We started doing social media a lot, sending out messages and being sociable. It's genuine though, we actually care about what our fan base can be and what we can create. There was a youth revolution in the 70s, people were actually enjoying music and one another's company together and now people are worrying about their next Instagram photo. We choose to utilize it but try to keep the purity of what music's intentions were. We love to do it because of the greater love of music and how we can influence someone's life."

Palaye Royale released the six-song EP "The End's Beginning" in July 2013, a thrilling and multi-dimensional selection of songs with accompanying art films for each track. Beyond the music, Remington, Sebastian and Emerson are very much curators of their own art, paying careful attention to detail.

"With every generation that passes through history and time there are artifacts left behind, whether it be film, photos or music," says Emerson Barrett. "As a band, we input our philosophical imagery into everything we do. We think it is necessary to shine a light on the past, with our art films we do just that. As a band we look to books by Buckminster Fuller and Alan Watts to inspire a greater sense of an art form. What is lacking in modern Western culture and civilization in general is a substantial philosophy to encourage a youth revolution. As Palaye Royale, we realize it is now up to us as artists to continue creating beautiful artifacts of expression to define our generation."

Palaye Royale will return to their hometown of Las Vegas for two very special performances next week, April 17 at Palms Casino Lounge and April 18 at Hard Rock Cafe on the Strip for Hard Rock Rising. For more information, press access to upcoming performances or requests to interview Palaye Royale please contact: mgmt@palayeroyale.com.

"Palaye Royale are set apart by their artistry and integrity...'indie' in every sense of the word, completely 'hands-on' from their words and musical arrangements as well as directing and producing their own music videos to handling their own social media." -Pop Vulture

"[Palaye Royale] are like Alice in Wonderland: A thrilling journey of excitement, discovery and sheer amazement, rolled into a compact ball of romance of the soul." -Candy's Corner

"Shaggy-haired, floppy hat-wearing trio from Sin City steamrolled their way through the [MTV's Musical March Madness] bracket, taking out such major players as Coldplay and 2012 champs Tokio Hotel before cruising past Linkin Park in the championship game." -MTV News

Rytmik Ultimate is a powerful music station allowing you not only to play with samples and musical instruments but also to mix them together, shape them and create music clips or whole songs for your Friday night set-list.

Rytmik Ultimate has taken music creation to one level higher thanks to new features. It allows you to share your songs with other users through the Rytmik Cloud. Rytmik can serve as a music player of songs uploaded on Rytmik Cloud with it and on top of that, users may exchange their songs and cooperate on their composing.

Once your work is complete, you can save it in WAV format to local storage.

That’s not all! Every instrument is now a wavetable synthesizer. With the advanced effect module you have more power to shape sounds with the ADSR envelope, vibrato, portamento, noise shaper or digital delay.

In addition to that the drawable waveform synth module allows a user to draw and modify their own wave and use it as a sample oscillator – with that you can use Rytmik Ultimate as a sonically unique chiptune synthesizer.

Rytmik Ultimate comes with a sound library of more than 750 instruments containing the libraries of the previous Rytmik series (Rytmik, Retrobits, Hiphop King and World Music) and adding a brand new set of samples ranging from deep dubstep kicks and basses to cutting synth leads and special effects.

Rytmik Ultimate with Rytmik Cloud will of course include more features and additions to the popular series to enrich your experience with playing with sounds and creating music on the go.

He specializes in nightclubs and weddings, as he loves to put on exciting an vibrant performances. Some of his notable events include: a live concert for "La Rockola 96.7" at the Yost Theater in Santa Ana, CA., Inferno Nightclub inside the Edgewater Casino in Lauglin, NV, and a Fashion Show for "Forever 21".

A Dj for over 12 years, some of Shaggy's main influences are: MixMasterMike, DJ Jazzy Jeff, and Joe Hahn. A natural at reading crowds, Shaggy can mix just the right combination of music for everybody in any situation.

Shaggy believes that a good DJ "speaks with his hands." His strong work ethic and dedication to his craft make him one of the most professional and hardworking DJs out there!

DJ Notrack aka Ahto Kalda got his musical education in 1989-1999 by
studying clarinet. Already during studying in music school, he had a desire to start
music projects. His first music project, in year 1997 was with his classmates and was called Saint-Ex. They recorded some tracks, but none of them was successful. At the same time he was also in another project called Summerboys, but neither did that become successful. In 2000 he started another project with one of his friends and it was called NRG! That finally had a first successful track called Sexy Moscow Nights, luckily rocking in Japanese dancechart for a few months. The highest achievement for the track was a 4th place in Japan, outperforming world-known names like Tiesto, Mauro Picotto etc. NRG! got gigs in many smaller clubs in Estonia and DJ Notrack aka Ahto Kalda got his first live-experiences as a producer.
 In 2002, being well-practised, having already his own studio, he started
another project called Michell. These tracks were approved by local radio stations in Estonia and it also had many live gigs. 
 In 2004, in the same studio another trance music project called Centrifuze was created with his neighbour Tarmo Sikk. That project had also some hit-tracks until the year 2008. Starting working in local radio station called Ring FM, DJ Notrack got to know his new colleague and friend Vahur Kollom to whom he introduced Tarmo and they all 3 started new music project together called
Positives, which was Notracks most successful music project then! First hit was called Sunset, next one Crazy Pam - that gave these 3 men a great taste of creating-a-superhit. Crazy pam was in places 1-3 in the Baltics and got the 8th place in Dancechart of the whole year 2009, in Estonia. It was released as audio and video in many well-known complications and also became a superhit in Canada. New hits and remixes were created, the most popular of them was probably the remix
for BTH – Last Christmas.

Since 2010 Notrack has done remixes on his own to Estonian elite artists and
to lots of famous artists all over the world e.g: Shaggy, Inna, Fr. David, Akcent, Ellie
White, Sasha Lopez, Radio Killer, Amna, Ex Da Bass, etc.

Notrack highly believes that his most successful achievements are to come still,
until then lets leave the biography as it is

"ME"
Shaggy waggy wavy make them days go crazy blowin O's with my baby
Dayzen blazen up stacken up counting  commas (yup)
Chaisen the dream stepping up fucking up rewriting history
If you standing next to me counting checks with me making cake raking in the money put your hands up with me stand with your honeys we in this game running twords the fame waiting for the day when people shout our name
we the the next up and we ready for the come up whos riding with me put your lighters up...

For ages nighttime was said to be the time of ghosts and spirits. Creatures of the night were believed to gain special powers between 
midnight and dawn. In latin this shrouded in mystery lapse of time was called "intempesta" - time without time. 
Detlef Weinrich, alias Toulouse Low Trax, too, seems to have lingered in the irrational universe of frozen continuity quite frequently within the 
last two years. Everyone who drifts to the sound of his first solo album "Mask Talk" will soon sense the musical intensity boding a different 
dancefloor. 
Cool, atmospheric new-wave-sharpness, and a cushioned beat rate between 107 and 116 bpm call out a mechanical functionality that 
doesn't bow to any contemporary doctrine. "Mask Talk": urban music, club album. Big city lights in Africa. Chilly neon-sounds made in 
Dusseldorf. 
As a member of Kreidler, Weinrich just recently participated in the trio's newly found cosmic vibes, as well as in their album "Mosaik 
2014". Now, with his solo project, he is demonstrating that a MPC and a small synthesizer-ensemble are enough to bring alive futuristic 
dance music in the here and now. 
Bedroom-recorded under tense creative circumstances, the ten tracks invoke, mostly instrumentally, an eerie atmosphere that would fit in 
perfectly with an early John Carpenter movie. The tracks' volume sounds as if a whole band had been at work in Weinrichs own four walls. 
With plenty delay on the bass figures, compact analogue effects, percussive dabs and a rough blend of layers, Weinrich has, without any 
digital support, created quivering drum machine music, whose dancability he was able to test regularly as a resident DJ and co-owner of 
the Dusseldof-based club/ bar "Salon Des Amateurs". His new tracks breathe the hypnotic power of his DJ sets, where he arranges 
diverse rhythms between krautrock, cosmic, electronic and acid. They also remind of analogue-electronical pioneers such as Cluster or 
Peter Baumann. Also 1980s avant-gardists Cabaret Voltaire or Zazou Bikaye have left their mark, without Toulouse Low Trax explicitely 
referring to them. 
All tracks are committed to experiment. They leave room for every sound without neglecting rhythmical clarity. A dark, urban solanum, full of 
reverb, whose melodies are never prankish, but whose minimal nonchalance is sure to help not only the dark creatures through the night. 
"Form is essence brought to the surface" Victor Hugo wrote 150 years ago. "Mask Talk" is reasserting this theory as a destillate of an 
operating procedure seeking to subvert ingrained listening habits and to resharpen the contours of the audible. Electronic music beyond 
any categorisation, whose sounds and rhythmics grow to an emotional atmosphere that far exceeds the immediately hearable.

Andrea Rivera, songstress, has always had a deep passion and love for
music since the age of 4.  Originally from the Cayman Islands with
Puerto Rican roots and with no immediate family members sharing her
passion for music, her main influences were iconic artists that she
heard on the radio or watched on TV such as Michael Jackson, Madonna,
Prince, Bob Marley, Whitney Houston and Celine Dion.

Enraptured by her influencers artistry and her love for music, she was
determined, taking matters into her own hands from the age of 6 to
learn the fundamentals of singing to develop her voice. She also
developed skills in acting, dance, musical instruments and at the age
of 12 she was influenced by Bob Marley’s lyrically inspirational songs
that she began developing her own songwriting skills. Singing in bands
since the age of 16, and the release of her first hit single “Drop
It”, she has developed her own style by building on the foundations
created by others in the music industry.

For more than a decade she has released many original songs and has
shared the stage with many artists such as Alicia Keys, John Legend,
Tito Nieves, Tessanne Chin, Shaggy, Beenie Man, Destra, Machel
Montano, Tanya Stephens, Morgan Heritage and many more.  Onstage when
performing live is where she truly shines with her charismatic stage
presence.  Andrea Rivera’s EP is in the works now and it’s expected to
be released  2017. Don't forget to like, share, download, stream and subscribe!
