My name is James, and I enjoy making music for my own personal enjoyment, including acoustic, rock, techno, and electronica. This project features my friends Marius Lee on vocals, and Justin Harwood on guitar and keyboards. I on this project I do guitar, bass, keyboards, drum programming, and all recording and mixing.

In the spring and summer of 2007, I purchased some equipment to set up a little home computer based recording studio. I had and idea to create some songs, but knew pretty much nothing of the process of recording. By the 2008 RPM Challenge, I decided to go ahead and plunge forward with recording an album, even though I didn't know a whole lot about the process.

 I don't often perform live anymore, but I do enjoy writing music and coming up with new ideas.
