Techno stands for Technology

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

There was an era in my life were I wanted to be sound engineer.  My dream was to sit Front of House and push faders for Radiohead, but I would have been happy just to the Restraint DJ Sound Tech.  I even began an internship at a local venue and worked as an electronics tech for the Athletics Department. 

 

I think about it occasionally.  Where would I be right now had I continued along that path?  Dead? possibly.  In jail? More probable.  Some bitter, balding hippie with anemic dreads, who is clasping at his fading youth, while mixing sets perform by young punk sh!theads who insist on playing covers of Green Day because TV and video games siphon off every last ounce of creativity they had?  Most likely.

The Amp is Back

Wow, I have a blog again.  I guess its been three or four years since I had left my ramblings on the net for anyone to comment on.  And by anyone, I pretty much mean Fresh and C$.  For now, I think I will ponder ways to best utilize this medium...

However, with a revitalized blog, I need to spice up the persona.  Our culture seems to be speeding up, and condensing names.  Maybe two syllables is too much for a name.  From now on its; The Amp....

Damn it, that is two syllables.  Ok, I guess I will just stick with opamp, but I format is getting a face lift.
