I was born in 1994. I grew up on all of your standard rock and metal groups along with a bunch of the nu metal and post grunge that was coming out at the time (thanks dad). I started getting very interested in music at age 5 and was a metal head up until I was around 14, where I found Frank Zappa and Beefheart. Then it all went downhill as I started getting more and more into the weird stuff. Got around my aversion to hip hop and it was implemented into my musical diet when I was around 18.

These days I'll listen to anything that's pushing boundaries. A couple of more recent additions to my favourites are
Jim O'Rourke
Richard Dawson
Matana Roberts
Billy Woods
Bill Orcutt
