Playing all kinds of percussion...conventional and unconventional percussive instruments.... Drum(set), conga/bongo/Djembe, washboard, pots, pans, tin cans, table tops, basically anything that can produce sound(s) and create a beat I'm down with.... Also been to 100's of concerts and shows...and festivals.....not ever paying attention to "pop" music.... Listen to a lot of Jazz, Funk, Jam Stuff... Jazz being the most influential.....Listen to a lot of Frank Zappa (Musical Genius waaaaaaaayyy ahead of his time).... and chip music has just been a result of playing waaaaaayyy tooo much NES....and other older video gaming systems..... I have always been a big fan of most of the classic BGM for video games, from the time I was introduced to my first NES game (back in the late 80's)
Favorite instrument is the Washboard of course! When I get better with circuit bending and modding I like to electrify my washboard and incorporate it with electronic music, and other music.... LSDJ and Washboard....hmmm
Basically I have a love for every genre of music... I like the "best" IMO of every genre.... jazz, funk, soul, r&b, hip-hop, blues, metal/progressive/classic rock, classical, reggae, drum n bass, avant-garde, etc.....list could go on forever....my favorite artist's probably wouldn't fit in one post....you get the idea...
