Sounds Like
That certain frequency that seems to create a nice, warm pocket to play in...
Born in Minneapolis-Raised in Northern California-spent some time in Tennessee-Livin' in Dallas right NOW...When I EXPERIENCE music, the GROOVE is always what GRABS me first. I listen to the SOUND of a song, what's making it WORK. Then I LISTEN to what it's saying, the VIBE of it. It doesn't have to be DEEP, it just has to strike me as HONEST on some level. I appreciate MUSIC that makes me think! [Not just mental states, but SPIRITUAL places that often GO neglected]...that's exactly what I want my music to do for the listener: CONNECTION! That is the TRUTH I seek...TRUTH will alwayz SHINE through! Bottom line: I LOVE EXPERIMENTATION through music and EXPLORATION through thoughts, feelings and IDEAS...PEACE and many BLESSINGS!...
