Abridged Time Line.
1997 - 2002:
Got serious about making music. Chose to have a go at Hip-Hop. A few groups I was in didn't work out... [...bummer] Figured it'd be best if I went at it alone for awhile. 2002 - 2003:
Worked on a limited, self released, (and hopefully buried) EP entitled, "365". Worked with a wonderful cast of artist. (some that are present in current projects) Wasn't very good though - going through one of those awkward 'finding my voice as an artist' phases but, had an alright tune or two. Got a little attention locally. 2005:
Connected with SP (of the Starving Artists Crew) - recorded some new tunes in addition to some things I had stashed away. "modest signal" [vinyl] is released! 2007:
P-Vine: "Wanna release a record?"
me: "Sure!"
I had a few songs I'd worked on + was working on a few new things. People said I should get it all together on disc & get it out someday. That day came Aug. 3rd, 2007. A collection of works + re-works, titled "Particle (moments)". Spanning from the beginning to mildly current songs. 2007 - 2009:
Ideas started forming in my head for new songs shortly after turning in "Particle (moments)". Got Obsidian Blue on board to produce the entire affair [sans one track], enlisted a few talented friends to contribute musically & visually, and slowly chipped away at the project for quite some time. After far too long (or just long enough), all the weaker things were filtered out and the better bits were concentrated into a fine brew. "Daydreamer Dialogue" [EP] arrives as a late Summer Fall(?) entry into the catalogue.

Upswing Social [Katrah-Quey Mix] PV
note(s): Circa '07, a few buddies (+ myself) decided it'd be cool to shoot a video. Armed with a video camera, a general idea, and some free time - this is what we came up with:
Upswing Social [Summer Holiday Video]
note(s): Through the power of Google, I came across a video that someone made of their Summer vacation with my song as the soundtrack. (fresh!) Bonus points for having the same style, feel as the original (+10 cool points)
House Cat [Kimi Mix] (live)
note(s): Live from Jaz'Room Nu-Things, 08.01.09, Tokiwa Lounge vol. 6, Kimi on the drums!
