I'm a fledgling electronica creator who has more experience in the indie rock side of things if I'm being honest. I live in Pensacola, Florida and run a home studio where I help my friends record their albums. I began putting out the electronic stuff only within the last year, and it's fun! I do cheat with digital junk every now and then, but I mostly use my trusty mopho, mc-505, and a couple of 80s samplers/pwm synths to get some funky soundz.

Some people are sweeties and some are cuties. The real unicorn is the elusive sweetie cutie. Ben is such a rarity. He plays a mean guitar, writes music for the Ben Levin Group and Bent Knee, teaches music, and produces regular music-making and discussion streams on Twitch. Watching his set will make your day better because he makes awesome art and he's really nice.

Buddog18 solo. The Buddog twenty is when/if I join a group. A crazy SOB in a basement self described as the White Boy Salvador Dali of Musical Performance art from New Jersey (USA).
A common event in the Magpie Pirates community is to solicit music from the community based on a theme. We put the tracks together and release an album. We also have a listening party. This is such an event for the "Chaos Apprehension" project. The theme of this project was to begin from a place of non-knowing and playing with chaos. Oblique strategies, etc.
