what city is nearest your present location
Just returned from 6 years on the East Coast to my hometown of Milwaukee, WI. That's as of today...I don't know where I'll be tomorrow...
how does it compare to your hometown? if it is your hometown, do you plan to live abroad
I plan on getting as far away from this fucking planet as possible. I do thoroughly enjoy traveling though, been back n forth across the US and Canada many a time, I’ll be leaving this continent for a spell soon I’m sure. Have had my sights on Berlin for some time.
do you listen to a broad range of musics
Yes, literally a little of everything and not too much of any one thing. I find bits and pieces within genres that I like, but couldn’t say there’s one preferred genre. Mostly a lot of electronic in my collection, but that covers a broad spectrum in and of itself.
have you ever gotten very sick
Never. Strong like bull. Indestructable, I was once told.
how old do you hope to live to be
day to day, baby. I'd love to hit 29 next year. Can’t see myself beyond 35, people have been calling me a grouchy old man since the age of 17.
what is/are your favorite food(s)
Coffee and cigarettes
on average, how long do you sleep at night
4 mins. to 4 hours...not my favorite pasttime. Nor is bathing. Eating. All those blasted necessities. To much to do, they get in the way.
do you write music in the dark or the day
I seem to end up living mostly in basements. So it’s usually dark for me. I seem to have better creative runs in the late, late eve/morning hours. While the world sleeps.
how many days a week do you work
If yer talkin music, daily. If yer talkin employment, whenever it comes. And it's a bit infrequent these days. Perhaps I owe a bit of thanks to the War on Tourism for that. Fuck the economy. Let's make certain dirty Dick Cheney's nestegg is taken care of!
what is your favorite animal species
Can't stand Homo sapiens. Everything else is fine. Well, and canines...they’re just dopey and gullible, like humans. I’m partial to insects, namely ants. They’re workhorses. And the way they evolve, as some have adapted to flight. It amazes me. And they out number us like 8 million to 1. Best be respeckin’.
tap, bottled, well or rain water
Beer from the tap over the bottle. And rain for dancing.
who do you respect
Motivated people. Mainly artistic types, people with drive and a passion for something on a creative level. Not those motivated by power hunger or wealth addiction. And I’m not just talking about CEOs and politicians.
do you read about economics/politics? if so, what good/bad do you see happening
I read about politics and economics probably more than I search out new music, honestly. It's important to know what the fock is going on. I can't belive how many people I cross in a day that don't read a newspaper, online or even a shitty American paper in print. People...politics do intersect your daily life on occasion. And I don't mean shopping to prove something to "terrorists". Something bad I see right now in American politics, is every semi-major/major city claiming their budget’s in poor fiscal condition and cutting funding to a variety public programs, schools being a big one, as though there was a surplus of spending in these areas beforehand. Just reeks of Reagan era bullshit, and we have some idea of what it was like to live in Detroit, DC, NYC, Boston, Philly, etc. in the 1980’s. I hope I’m wrong, but here we are again. El Salvador, Libya, & Colombia easily being replaced with Afghanistan, Iraq & Iran as places the American public vaguely hear ! about on the evening news, and their money’s all tied up in some conflict over here, over there. Cities go to shit, and taxpayers are funding corporate welfare programs. The 20-year fashion/fascist cycle.
how do you feel when you finish a song
I experience wild mood swings depending on how my creative pursuits are evolving. If I finish a song, that usually means I like it and am inturn, a helluva lot easier to be around.
do you play your music live, dj, vj, ej, etc
I play live here n there. Still dj a bit on occasion as well.
airplane, train, car, bike, skateboard or feet
Don't like cars...I have to move back to a city where I don't need them. I have bad luck with cars and the expense that they are. I usually ride a bike for the most part, used to be a bike messenger in NYC, Boston & Washington DC. Only way to go. I like planes too. Love early morning flights, there’s some majesty of flight that takes me over from time to time.
what is/are your favorite activit(y/ies)
Writing tracks, drinking coffee, and smoking cigs simultaneously.
who would you make love to in a second
I dunno, am I supposed to drop some kinda pop culture figure in here?
if you could live on the moon, would you ?
I believe I touched on that earlier (see 02 above). I'm thinking about moving to Las Vegas or Phoenix, which is kinda like the moon. I'm always intrigued by those desert cities. Everything is shipped in: water, plant life, the city, etc. Like colonizing a planet.
has anything weird ever happened to you
Daily…it’s a strange, strange world.
anything else
buh…I have a new 12” out on Isolate Records. Thanks.
