He makes music with his nose and hands, but does it best when he's using real instruments in the studio. Allegedly.
His studio currently exists in his bedroom, which is in fact, where many other kinds of magic takes place, usually with cards and hankies and stuff.
He has a birth mark in his eye. Also, a cat named Sneakers.
In 2002 and 2003, Bernie released two full-length techno/trance albums, "Fringe Benefits" and "Asian Spice." Both CD's are no longer available, but electronic copies of some songs are still sometimes seen floating around the web (see the Draft Cannon below).
In 2005, Bernie broke his strict diet of techno and dance music by releasing "My Sky Caught Fire", an eclectic CD with music stretching into the genres of symphonic rock, trance, ambient, new wave, orchestral, and speed metal.
Bernie's latest CD, "My Sky Caught Fire" can be bought by clicking on the picture below. With 19 tracks, it is fat and happy.
Click on the movies to see two clips from the recent concert. I am very much indebted to the North Dakota Ballet Company for the beautiful job that they did with my music.
"Vertigo"
"Bridge"
The DRAFT CANNON!
The Draft Cannon had to be put on probation for trying to use old copies of Asian Spice as kindling for a series of uncensored and probably very sexy forest fires. Seriously people. Don't use my old albums to start forest fires. I will find out and I WON'T BE HAPPY although forest fires look pretty cool sometimes.

Es no problema. I'm glad you are still alive though. Doing well on my end. Waiting for a desk to be put in at my new job so I can actually start. I'm going to be a receptionist at the Title Company. It handles real estate contracts, things like that. Real estate is HUGE out here, and I'll be making an hourly wage at the sound of $14 an hour. I'm pretty thrilled about that. Other than that, enjoying life for the most part. Robert is in San Antonio again right now (his third time down there at two-week stretches) which sucks, but is due back Friday. Hopefully for good. And I am enjoying some 70 degree weather. Woot!
I miss you. You are still my favorite person in ND. Am I invited to your wedding? I promise to come and watch your beautiful girlfriend in all her glory. And maybe I'll see you too. Ahaha.
it was really good seeing you today!!! it should happen more..... ive missed you... and you better remind me when that ballet comes up!!! i want to be there!
I just thought you should know that you have the best thinking music ever. I was listening to my "Bubblefoot Deluxe (0 Carbs)" CD the other night when I had writer's block...then wa-bam! It went bye bye!
