   About Dr Mendoza
Formerly known as Phalanx and various other names. Often referred to in a shouty voice, and in many cases punctuated with profanity and insults.

I've been writing electronica and rock / metal since 1988 and more recently combining them to make something that approximates to industrial.

I also very recently (August 2006) moved from the UK to the USA and am just finding my feet with respect to writing, performing and otherwise messing around with music. Particularly as most of my equipment has not yet arrived (still being shipped with the rest of my possessions)!

I managed the number one spot on the old MP3.com's World Jungle chart for several days, I've played guitar and keyboards live with bands and I also DJ (and occasionally vocalize), but this is my place for dumping anything that spews forth from my fevered brain, so don't expect miracles...

I now make crappy cartoons for something to do - look here: The Rubber Chicken Diaries!

BTW - Merchandise is now available here:

Also, many more tracks available here:

And there's also a bunch o' choons available to play here (but stop the MySpace player above if you want to listen to them!):

Hello mate. Sorry been all over the place doing stuff so not had much time for MS. At the mo I have a few drawings on the go for peeps so can't do anything for a while sorry. Couldn't you ask your bro to do you something?

The E-mu Rom was in my P2k and it was the vintage one. I moved it out and put it into an E-mu MP-7 command station which I must add still has a lot to offer even now.

It's like the P2k and World one on the editing front but with a load more to offer. Plus it's a desktop unit with pads like an MPC.

If we don't chat beforehand, have a good Christmas mate and chat in the New Year.

Mate you finally made a song about your love for booze:O jokes aside though you done a good job there. It's on a kraftwerk sort of vibe I thought. Were you using your new toy on that?
