I go back and forth between writing electronic music and performing intensely improvisational rock music. I've got a lot of my personal music on my main site at http://www.philchristensenmusic.com -- for this kind of stuff, I use ProTools as my main interface, running Ableton Live and Reason as ReWire slaves, as well as using a large number of Native Instruments plugins, particularly Guitar Rig and Absynth.

With my band seaflux, we've been spending a lot more time on social network promotion, and so although we've got a lot of linked content on our main site at http://seaflux.com , much of our material is available on our profiles on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/pages/seaflux/27070655285), ReverbNation (http://www.reverbnation.com/seaflux), and of course of tons of videos on YouTube (http://youtube.com/seafluxmusic). Due to the improvisational nature of this band, our best recordings so far are live shows, which end up getting recorded just with a stereo mic setup.

I made a little bit while I was in high school (last year) We had a music tech lab. I used garage band to start but quickly changed to Logic Pro. It's mostly loops and some of my own guitar playing. http://www.reverbnation.com/charliemccowan The song "Serious Injuries May Occur" was made using loops in combination with the sound files of the popular game Portal. I made lyrics by editing and combining lines from the game. A warning, it is a little on the dark side following the nature of the game.

I grew up in the demoscene, but got too old to keep hanging in it. I'm part of a bunch of semi-retired demo sceners and put out tunes and releases every once in a grand while.

I did the music for this demo http://fulcrum.antisoc.net/filemanager/active?fid=102

And a few other songs...they run a gamut of styles http://fulcrum.antisoc.net/filemanager/active?fid=97 http://fulcrum.antisoc.net/filemanager/active?fid=93 http://fulcrum.antisoc.net/filemanager/active?fid=84 http://fulcrum.antisoc.net/filemanager/active?fid=76 http://fulcrum.antisoc.net/filemanager/active?fid=61 http://fulcrum.antisoc.net/filemanager/active?fid=72 http://fulcrum.antisoc.net/filemanager/active?fid=69
