About Me |
|
The Handymartian decided it was time to do something useful and make some noises. Using a trusty acoustic to write, compositions were transfered to the most basic of computer systems to be shaped and sculpted into pop nuggets. Progress was swift at times and painfully slow at others, but always sounds were born. From bleeps to strums, from words to hums, love was poured into every last note.
