Bio

Seriously, I checked out the competitor site to FAWM - don't bother. FAWM is head and shoulders above that mess.

UPDATE 2/7: Still sick, but I'm hanging in there. My oxygen level is about nil, and it's been raining here for days.

I'm doing my best, but hopefully I'll get ahold of some cough syrup that will help my songwriting. Or whatever it is I end up with after a night in the studio.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Back for my second FAWM, W00T! I released the album I wrote for 2009's FAWM last year. It's available on Amie Street http://amiestreet.com/music/looprication/songs-for-the-darkness-songs-for-the-dawn/ as downloads. I also have actual CDs with amazing artwork. Feel free to contact me if you're interested! No actual instruments were harmed in the recording of this project.

I'd recommend FAWM to anyone aspiring to write more songs, better songs, and especially for my colleagues out there producing electronic music where endless non-destructive editing gives the illusion that nothing's ever truly done.

Born in Detroit, moved to San Diego in 1994. Grew up listening to "alternative" and got heavily into electronic music and scene back in 1999/2000. DJ'd at the infamous Loft in Long Beach in 2001 until it imploded.

Traveled to Amsterdam, Japan, UK, Iceland, Chechy, Vienna, Berlin, Rome, and will happily crash on your couch if you live in a city I haven't experienced yet

I've been writing/producing electronic music under the moniker of looprication since 2000.

Yeah, Annie Proulx is pretty much extremely awesome. Thanks for the comment on Harbormaster, BTW. I was worried that part with the autotune in the background might be distracting.

Your comment on http://fawm.org/songs/707/ "It seems to be defined not by borders between things but because of the lack thereof." Sometimes I do not know how to describe my own intentions, but I think you nailed it!!! Thanks!

Dang... With the LA Philharmonic - that sounds amazing. I got his new one on iTunes - but I haven't sat down and listened yet. I want to save it 'til I can give it my undevoted attention. Antony doesn't get the credit he deserves. I'm always happy when I find someone that understands.

Had a great time improvising to "shame" this morning. Nice ambient break there. Listened enough to know I want to hear more.

Have a great FAWM!

Haha, nice
Yeah my boys talk a lot, and unfortunately Mojo learned a very annoying word : "no!"
Not long ago we've taken him to the vet for vaccination and he was crying "noooooooon" (in French of course) to the poor woman. I was ashamed ^^
Also we bought a DVD to his brother because we had noticed he was watching "In the Night Garden" on TV. When they are pests we play it to them.

Loop-- Thank you, i did receive the masterpiece! then i was virus-y sick all week, and just now feeling up to real typing. I've listened over and over-- it has just a mesmerising flow, and the quality is fabulous, crystal clear and rich. Bravo! Great cover art (not to mention a sweet mention!). It feels like too perfect a progression to have happened naturally, but i don't remember the order well enough to be sure... the way 4:20 in beirut goes into fireflies is magical. this disc needs airplay!

Thank you
You can have all the vocals you want, you know I'll be more than glad if we get an opportunity to collab
Yeah, the stuff I've heard from you would definitely make a great sountrack!
