A metalhead at from a young age, he spent ten years as an engineer living near Detroit filling the nights with synthesized tones and rhythms, shaped most of all by modern underground Detroit techno. Art & engineering cannot be separated: custom plugins, hardware recording & performance rigs, the tools behind the tracks are just as important as the finished sound. To him the science and the math matter as much as the beauty — tension and release, built deliberately."),
