PERFORMED BY THE ROOT CAUSE
I have been recording at home and play all the instrumentation on my compositions. I have been doing this here at home and have got a large library to record now that I am production capable. I used to envy people and want to hook up with other people to do this but they were all full of shit. I am currently working on a new acoustic project called "The Root Cause". Check out www.myspace.com/rootcausetheband to check out who we are and what we are doing. I am playing guitar in this group. Maximus from Kaos Theory is doing the VOX and Rick Drehobl is also playing guitar. Big L who has been with me now for quite sometime now is still playing bass with me in The Root Cause but I play all the bass on my recordings. Also we have acquired the drum stylings of the Mighty Brian Mickey of Fineous. Right now it is an acoustic thing that I am recording but I am having a blast and growing at it. I am pretty excited and have a many songs I wrote that we do in the band and I will be posting all my other new stuff here. CHEERS
Soundgarden, Chris Cornell, Pearl Jam, Eddie Vedder, The Dave Mathew's Band, Tim Reynolds, Alice in Chains, Jerry Cantrell, Pantera, Led Zeppelin, Nick Drake, Herbie Hancock, A Perfect Circle, Neil Young, Dead Steel Mill, General Patton, The Who, STP, NIN, and a long, long list of many more to long to type.
I have been in music for more than twenty years.
I DeeJayed for 15 years and taught people how to DeeJay the list to long to list for all since 1980 using technic 1200 mk and mk2s series turntable along with a numark 1800 mixer. I got into the midi world at about 1986 and learned how to program and teach what I learned to a number of people also a list to long to list here using emulator, kawia, all roland keybords and drum machines, korg and kurzweil. I got into the hip hop game at about 1988 still with all the knowledge but at this time was using a korg m1 and an akai mpc 60.
I started with the molemen when they were just boys and help them get on their way in about 1989. I taught them and a few of their headlining rappers how to program and arrange their songs. I also taught them how to sample and to program.
I left due to idea differances but was had a mutual agrement. on leaving. I picked up the guitar and started playing the drums and haven't stopped. I have written songs for Sisterchild where I worked with a plethora of musicians of the like I have continued to have a good relationship with.
I also was part of the DIGABLE CAT before Susie Lofton had left and played an intricate part of the creation of SPYDERMONKEY but left when I got a real job which I don't care to talk about now.
I have been recording at home and can pretty well say what I mean and get what I am looking for whether it is recording or producing something at home or abroad. I can play the drums, the bass, the guitar, arrange, compose all my music and lyrics.
I WILL BE POSTING MUSIC ALL THE TIME SO CHECK ME OUT BABY!!!

I've got a match for you alright... You might be surprised how often I've been told I look like Triple H. I've been compared to a lot of people, usually not very flattering comparisons, either, but Triple H is probably the most common... at least in the last ten years.
