Little bout me:
As a teenager I started playing guitar. Living in a small town in Oregon I found myself at bluegrass jams and folky hippie stuff frequently. Played guitar, mandolin, bass, bit of banjo, etc. Transitioned to the indie rock scene in my late teen years. In 2003 my younger brother introduced me to Reason...made some funky songs and was hooked. Worked with Acid Pro, Cakewalk, and then on to Ableton (which I use now).
Creating music with these programs I automatically leaned toward techno, even though I had not listened to much of it. My older brother dumped a bunch of music on me......Rich Hawtin, Villalobos, Fehlman, etc. I have been hooked since.
