Jesse Kirstein:
Not really much else to put down in this section. At least not right now. I have some friends who help me here and there, but they only contribute to the overall efforts that are still essentially--mine.
Influences
This is a really tough one. I would say my first influences were from the early 80s, only I didn't actually listen to much music during that time period. It wasn't until the early 90s that I began to understand more about the type of music I really wanted to pursue.
First, there was electronic music. Not techno or dance or anything like that. Just straight up music made with electronic instruments. Of course the rest came later.
Then there was movie soundtracks. Full sweeping melodic and bombastic scores that were made with the singular purpose of driving you deeper into your seat and engrossing you in a story.
And I would have to admit there was the Rock/metal category that just came swooping out of nowhere. Hardcore, angst driven music that could only be good for destroying something and getting a good sweat worked up.
Would "everything" be a good music category? Cause, I can't think of anything that would classify me best. I'll put music up here for people to listen to and enjoy, but if someone gets the idea that a certain track identifies me and my style, they might be disappointed with the next one.
Enjoy ...
Sounds Like
All kinds of things really, but some would say I sound a lot like 80s electronica, new wave and perhaps some rock. I'm also heavily influenced by big movie score stars from major blockbusters. You may have seen some...
When Jesse was a kid he used to climb onto the roof of his house at night and stare at the overhead expanse imagining he was flying through the crystal clear stars that dotted the evening sky overhead. Fast forward to today and he's currently pursuing the interests spawned by those visionary sessions. Jesse is now expanding his skills in sound and music design techniques for video games, video and film, post video production and digital as well as traditional art. "Too much" you say? Not for me ... heh heh.
I have more music over here at my Soundclick Page ...
