KaW & WMD Performance – June 8th 2006 Portland, Oregon

Preliminary Info:

John and I will be performing on June 8th in Portland, OR
at Ground Control for the TRONix event

Ground Kontrol
511 NW Couch St.
Portland, OR 97209
p: (503)796-9364

And what is X-tra cool, is that it is a “classic video game” arcade!
No ITG or DDR, but you CAN play some Galaga or maybe get your Donkey Kong on, I myself am kind of a Missile Command guy… And at the same time, rock out to your favorite KaW, Inspector K, When Machines Dream, Banzia, Oscillator X, Smiley, etc. tunes
Anyway, the show will rock and it’s FREE to anyone over 21.

So any PDX peeps, hope to see ya’ there!

Sakuracon 06 Success & More!

Well Howdy DooDly there! 🙂

I’m happy to say that the performance at Sakuracon went VERY well. Here are a few images of the performance. A full set can be found HERE

Performance!

Big Thank you goes out to:

John Mendenhall – He was up there rocking out with me the entire show!
Kid Whatever – followed up on Saturday with an amazing performance. I was even part of the ‘Conga line’ on the dance floor on Saturday!
Jon DMN – Helping with my setup and encouraging me to play at the event.
Ross H – For coordination of the whole event & getting things done.
My parents – Thanks joining in on the fun and making an appearance that evening!
In other news; I’ve decided to move from my home (of 5 years) here in Seattle, WA I’m in the process of figuring out my new home/destination (still up in the air actually). It’s very possible that I will be returning to the PDX area after living in Seattle for 5 years.

What does this change? Not much really… I’ll still be rock’n and doing what I always do regardless! 🙂 It’ll be nice to return to my Portland/Vancouver roots and get back into the southern Washington swing of things. I’ve already found an Olympic sized swimming pool that will be sure to see me daily! (evil grin)

ITG’s future is turning out incredibly well. I have no doubt that It’ll continue to progress like it has since day1. Thanks to everyone who’s been impacted by ITG so far. It’s been a pleasure supplying everyone with the fun that ITG really holds inside.

More news later!

*ahem* Update time!

I’m happy to report that both KaW CD’S “Synthsations” & “Urban Comatose” can now be purchased at your local Tower Records. I’ve been very happy with the release of these CD’s. Additionally, you might start to hear these play on your local electronic music stations. (If you are lucky to have them) 🙂

OscillatorX has also been in full force lately. It’s been a pleasure working with my old John Mendenhall after such a long break. People have really liked our latest Oscillator X track, “Dance All Night”.
We have more plans for tunes…just you wait!

Next addition to my music overload news… Pete Ellison and I have decided to put on a liveshow at Sakuracon this year in Seattle. I hope to see everyone there… it’ll most certainly be a blast for all.

Urban Comatose RELEASED!

I just got back from the Roxor 2005 Nationals in Las Vegas, NV. I had such a blast hanging out with the ITG players there. You are all incredible and I thank you for coming to the event. The Future of ITG is looking brighter then ever! 🙂

New ‘Oscillator X’ material!

Over the holdiays, John and I were able to get together and record two new tracks at CyberDreams Studio. The Electro stomper “DJ Superstar” was the first track recorded, followed by the very Eurodance “Dance All Night”.
We had a great time recording these and started two additional Oscillator X songs as well as collaborating on a new When Machines Dream track.

Check out “DJ Superstar” and “Dance All Night” at John’s Soundclick site!
