New combinations and directions come about as a result of restless and continuous exploration of the musical landscape. I'm searching for new sounds and new combinations of people to interact with. We have to counter the dumbing down with revitalized action and intention towards progress and inclusion.
Here are some links to sounds these people make. Hopefully it entices you to check out the sounds we make.
