About Me |
|
| I have a fetish for discarded sound technologies and discarded conceptions of rhythm. I do my best to be good to people, including myself. Sometimes I succeed, sometimes I fail. I have not yet made friends with Time. I tend to spread myself thin. It is rumored that I am the subject of the Moldy Peaches' song "Jorge Regula." I played keyboards on the recording of the song. Right now I am working with a bunch of people & we are fighting against a corrupt skyscraper/arena project. http://www.dddb.net I am hungry. If you want to add me, write me a note, or I may assume you are spam. I don't like spam, but I do like real people. |

Recently, Steve played on a bunch of recordings by the fabulous Sprinkle Genies . Check 'em out! Also, The Teenage Prayers, now, live. Steve and Malcolm Rollick improv'd together rather magically at one of her shows, and the song, "Don't Stop Reading Me the News" is on her myspace page if you click on her name, 30 words ago. Steve also plays piano on a song at the myspace page of: Tom Warnick and the World's Fair , a great band. (Tom is the guitarist on "Bumbling Along.") Influences: The Naugahide Henchmen; The Peptide Bondsmen; The Personality Disorderers; The Super Elastic Bubble Plastic Revival Snorters; The Haliburton-Hired Snipers, Afghanistan Office (a negative, working-against sort of influence, to be sure); The Post-Neo-Now Quartet featuring The Future Retroists; The Singaporean Gum Chewers.
