The List continues to grow!!!!!
Starting in 2000, when the master architect got his first music program with a CD burner that he bought, he soon learned that music was his calling. Starting with Acid Music 1.0, he quickly out grew that program and then purchased Acid Style 2.0 (I can't believe I actually purchased Acid Hip-Hop 2). It wasn't till he got Acid Music 3.0 that he finally figured out how to actually make something listenable, thank to the higher quality loops included. In 2003, He finally upgraded to Acid Pro 4, which thanks to VSTi support, drove him to producingall original compositions and using less acid loops.
in 2004-2005, he got sick of computers all together, I mean all together, and went Analog. This is where Architecture was born. Originally a lo-fi project that was an off shoot of his Dark Ambient project Dark Void, he was going to make music the old school way. He still uses the methods he learned during these years, to where he is now.

Chicks dig scars, everyone knows that, right? Meet Severence DeSnappio, a man who creates ‘fake’ injuries for desperate clients. He’ll get you a stab wound, shot gun blast, snowboarding injury - but a bite from a great white shark?
Set in Miami, Chicks Dig scars is a lyrical, Lynchian mix of dream logic and hard boiled detection.
