About Me
I've been writing music and inflicting my own specialist brands of audio terrorism for a few years now, using tons of different methods. When not doing that, I DJ on internet radio (www.siradio.fm) and no I won't spam it everywhere this is the only cheap plug I'll do! Hobbies include gaming, football, geekery and annoying the hell out of normal society, plus a few other things best not mentioned in polite company.
Instruments I Play

I play a bit of keyboard but my main instruments are bass and guitar as well as computer related gubbins. I love my electric blue Les Paul more than is healthy and if that wasn't enough I've even done some vocals, mainly death metal shouty type stuff, and have played in countless bands, including the one I'm in now.

Software I Use

Acoustica Mixcraft 5, Adobe Audition, Fruity Loops 9
But I cut my teeth on the likes of Magix 2003 and even Music on the Playstation and even Cubase on the Atari ST....*sniff* I miss my Korg M1

Hardware I Use

A shiny, lovely and very nice Toshiba Laptop and sometimes a really cranky old Compaq machine. Other than that I'll fiddle with anything I can get my grubby little hands on. I am in the process of building a studio in my spare room. Or will be once I replace the PC I was putting in there...oh and of course copious amounts of tea and curry.

Listening To Right Now

Now you're asking, but in no particular order...

Nine Inch Nails-Anything from The Downward Spiral
Deadmau 5- Ghosts n Stuff (Nero mix)

Terrorfakt- Bells of War (Accessory Remix)

Dan Le Sac v Scroobius Pip-all 3 albums
Lard-Last Temptation of Reid
Tool-Prison Sex

I can't believe I was only allowed 10 here.....there's loads more I'm listening to right now so out of sheer rebellion will add Lost Prophets, Kids in Glass Houses and Grendel's latest albums too!

Chemical Brothers-Exit Planet Dust

This list changes all the time, with the exception of Tool and NIN :) And yeah I will play by the rules here, or I'll be typing this list all day.....only 10? Too hard a question to answer, but I did it, can I have a cookie?

My Music Sounds Like

Godzilla raping a pig

In My Other Life I ...

I could tell you, but I'd have to kill you....seriously though I DJ for internet radio station Split Infinity Radio(link up above)but as I'm considered too disabled to work due to some pretty nasty health problems. And no that isn't due to the headphones that seem to be constantly attatched to my head :)
So, all in all music and music related things are pretty much my life, so I do that all the time when not either screaming my lungs out while watching my beloved Aston Villa play football or trying to conquer the world via my xbox or playing TF2 or WoW....yes I'm a nerd...and proud of it!
