  • Bio

    What have we been doing with our lives? In my case I have been documenting my life through the recording process. I am starting this site as a base of operations for getting out to the web, music of various bands that I have been involved with. Although I have been in a number of gigging bands as both a musician and sound person, I consider myself more a catalyst, collaborator and creator using the recording process as my composition tool. This site is a celebration of the collaborative process. I wish to express my gratitude to all those I have been fortunate enough to play with over the years. May you still be making music. This site is also a connection to the future. My current projects are cyberCHUMP www.cyberchump.com with Mark G.E. and a solo project that I am currently calling Baron Von Sklenar.
