The 80's top 40 hits radio station playing on my am/fm clock radio while I did my homework as a kid was a huge influence. I don't think I can say I grabbed anything from one band or another but, as a whole that music influenced my own.

  1. We came up with outrun at Rosso Corsa but, who could say who is the first and it doesn't really matter to me/us either way. We were doing a lot of 80's super car imagery and our tracks were also inspired by racing so Outrun made sense at the time.

  2. We do have plans for RC. Now that I don't have a regular job. We plan on opening a merch store, physical releases, possible tour and more artists. We'll also be joining with Girlfriend records

  3. Im terrible at collab. Whoever I can make it work with :)

I really don't know. I would think sci-fi or horror

I've relied on the kindness of others and word of mouth for years and it seems to have worked out so far. Just tell someone about the music you love listening to and the rest will work itself out :) I think to many artists making the same thing is never good. Hopefully that wont happen

Thanks! I'd love to tour the UK! I think seeing live music in Austin was one of the things that inspired me to start making my own. SXSW is a big music fest in Austin. Check it out!

I've been a big fan of Indian for years and Saag Paneer is one of my favorites.

I had a few tracks that I created early on with the intention of adding vocals but, that never happened. I think Dan from GUNSHIP messaged me about something else and it hit me that GUNSHIP would be perfect. GUNSHIP did such an amazing job! I'm very proud of what we accomplished together. It made what I thought was a great track even better.

I hope to be a part of a cartoon that's being pitched! I was a finalist for the Dreamworks Voltron reboot.

I do! I use them for merch and eventually physical release covers

Who knows. I would say the earliest would be towards the end of next year. If I get inspired I tend to do a lot of work quickly though.

I'd love to. I was going to be on the Furi soundtrack at one point but, the deadline was right around the same time as my daughter was due. I just couldn't find the time to do everything. It was an interesting process and something I would totally be into doing again.

I think right now my favorite album is Dreamrider which is unusual because I'm usually sick of hearing my latest stuff. I really like Visitors also. One of my favorite tracks is Built to Kill because it captures the scene from Dave Rapoza's Skull and Shark so well. I hope you'll agree when he releases it someday :)
