My background is music I have played Drums/Percussion for a number of bands (Details to follow soon)
However I have taken a departure from music and have become a VJ.
I got into this by watching electronic bands such as Orbital and Underworld live. I was really impressed with the way the visuals added to the impact of the music and was hooked.
I have been doing serious gigs for the past two years and now have regular slots at Underground City, Toxic City, Hex-a-Tex and Scum Like Us. I have also performed at 'Drop Beats Not Bombs'
multidimensional love and resonance from the Amorphous Androgynous-cosmic space music of every kind-sonic solutions for superconsciousness-ride the wave !!

Morning Craig,
Great gig last night. Footage looks great, really crips and clear. We'll get editing asap.
What do you want for music? (i forgot to ask again.
I hope so!! I'm gagging for a bit of Resolume/VJamm/V4 action - we're soooooo busy with Bloom these days I don't get to VJ as much as I'd like. I had the best time at the last one I went to!! Our Bloom page broke actually (www.myspace.com/bloomfestival.com) so we have a new one: www.myspace.com/bloomfestivaluk
