What it's all about!

Many songs have been written about being "at the crossroads." When someone is at the crossroads, it usually means a choice must be made, and for the longest time that's how I viewed it too. My electronic music output often features a cyberpunk/scifi/futuristic bent. My acoustic output often features the sort of fantasy imagery associated with LotR, or various RPGs such as Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, or the Breath of Fire series (my favorite!) So which is it? Am I a jazz musician or an electronic musician? Do I make sci-fi influenced music or fantasy inspired creations? To those questions I answer: To hell with such distinctions! I make music that is narrative but not specifically so. I give you the general idea but you fill in the gaps with your own experiences, ideas, and feelings, and together we go on a journey. At the crossroads? No, the goal is to be at that place that is left when the false dichotomy of crossroad imagery is taken away, and Akira's Tetsuo and LotR's Aragorn can hang out. Along the way, hopefully some nice sounds happen, and we all learn more about this music stuff.
