InfluencesFirst and foremost, John Rodrigues, Scott Rodrigues, and Chris Helenthal. They lit that last creative ember I had left in me and in doing so, I have found that the creative spark is erupting in to a full blown fire.

Sasha, for completely blowing me away by moving away from vinyl and yet again, becoming an explorer on not only the forefront of music but, technology.

Cybo- whoa, in an instant she reminded me of what it was like to create with young, untainted passion.
Cosmic Baby- there will always be dolphins in my heart for you.
Billy-D- the originator of cool!
Shaggy- we walked on another planet and in some other time my friend.
Datapusher and Modulus- they are technical masters, I listen and learn... someday!

Personal Bio:
I have been an off and on musician for years and I have decided to set up a page to aggregate some of my projects.

Most of my original music was created between 1994 and 1998. During part of that time, I was an artist on the Independent record label "Artistic Records" based out of Orlando, FL. I had the opportunity to work with quite a few talented musicians including Sam Mollison, AK1200, Chris Marchese, Sean Cusick, Sunny Raskin, and Jimmy Van M. While my passion for being a 'professional musician' faded, my respect and love of electronic music has continued to grow and mature throughout the years. I feel extremely lucky to have worked with such talented musicians.

I produce a monthly downtempo podcast entitled "Chill With The Chola" and have slowly started producing music again. However, this time around, I am doing it for enjoyment, not profit.

If you are interested in downloading any of my tunes or DJ Mixes for free, you may do so by clicking here or you may stream them in the player below. To check out my podcast visit http://chola.podomatic.com.


Thanks for stopping by,
Chad Helenthal
