I have been making music for about 6 years under the artist names: Cactus, Recluse, Grointhief and others (*cough). I use Fast Tracker 2. I was previously a member of HellTrot (R) which has since disbanded with the fall of the tracking community. Some might think that I cling to dead dreams but I really just make music for fun and if other people like it, well thats cool too of course! My main agendas now adays are to push the boundaries of existing musical forms as much as I can through genre-hybridisation and experimental music that still takes the aesthetic side of sound into consideration.. if that makes sense? Music for me is mainly a means of expression and as a release of emotions, typically angst or melancholy, that kind of stuff. rarr.
