Grew up in Los Angeles, went to college in San Francisco, and now living and working in Tokyo. My life here in Tokyo pretty much revolves around work, but on my spare time, I really enjoy producing music. My interest in music began back in college when I started DJing at various clubs such as Spundae (San Francisco), RED (Los Angeles), Space 550 (San Francisco) and QOOL (San Francisco). It was then that I met "High Spies", the House Duo who kindly showed me the ins and outs of working in a studio and producing music.
Life has changed significantly since moving to Tokyo, with most of my time focused on work. But in this new city, it would be great to still be able to meet other musicians and anyone that loves music as much as I do. I enjoy listening to many types of music but my favorite genres are House, Progressive House, Breaks, Drum & Bass, and J-Pop.
I've uploaded some of my songs here on MySpace and will continue to update it with any new tracks that I finish. I hope you enjoy them, and please feel free to send me any comments or suggestions =)
