On the more technical end of my background. I have been writing music since I was nine years old and got my first keyboard when I was twelve. Several other instruments followed. What I didn't have I borrowed and sampled. I liked making unnatural sound effects with mic'ed-up classical instruments, running through amplifiers and effect paddles. In these earlier years I would use an old Apple computer for recording those sounds. Over time my sound and song making mixed together and as my technical knowledge grew I began perfecting my music with digital audio workstations.
