I did an interview with The HYPE Magazine. In this exposé we go over exactly who I am and how I came to be. This covers things like musical influences, motivation, and morals behind what it is that I do. Read more by clicking the link.
I was featured in an online magazine called “Popular Beings”. In this article I was able to touch on some of my philosophy and why I wear a crown. It talks about my struggle with disability, depression and how music became my therapy. I also go over one of my main reasons for putting myself out there in the way that I have. An interesting read no doubt, check it out here.
This time I was featured in VENTS Magazine where I got a chance to talk about some of the challenges I face as an artist and person with disabilities. I never use my disability as an excuse but as a motivation to go beyond and inspire others to do the same. We also discuss some of the motivations and inspirations behind the music I create.

I’ve been a diehard music fan since my youth, but we began to understand the structure of music when we learned to DJ 12 years ago. After a few years of DJing with vinyl, a program called Serato was introduced that allowed me to DJ using MP3’s with the same control I had with vinyl. As a bonus though, unlike vinyl, MP3’s can be edited and remixed. My first production endeavors were simple re-edits of songs for improved mixing.
My friend John Goff, a lifelong analog and electronic musician, would help me with these re-edits and indulged me as I became more ambitious with my arrangements. John suggested that we build some original music together. We put some instrumental compositions together, and then serendipitously met Merritt Lear and her former bandmate Joe Cassidy. Merritt added incredible vocals and melody ideas, and Joe added guitar and production/arrangement. We completed two songs, decided to name our project NØISE, and to rush produce a 7 inch for release at my 50 Shades of Black art show. I worked up some art for a screen-printed cover, and we cut and glued 500 sleeves to complete the NØISE “Little Lions” 45 RPM 7 inch. Additionally, all 500 are signed and numbered but will still be priced at $10… with no added “Art Tax” in sight. You can listen to the music on the turntables provided in the Subliminal Projects gallery, or buy it for the art. To be clear though, this is not an art project with music included, it is a music project with art included. We’ll release some stuff digitally eventually, but it’s vinyl only for now. Get the NØISE “Little Lions” 7 inch at 50 Shades of Black.
