Band Bio: Hi! I'm JVonD the "Commander Of The Beatomatic" box, recording artist, Cyber Space guru, and a/v production freak.. I've been recording my life since 1991 and my content reflex my great memories from my past. You can usually find me jamming in the local bars around Boulder Colorado. I like to compose and accompany musicians with improv electronica and I invite anybody or a jam. Most of my studio time is now taken up by programing the "Beat-O-Matic" and CD/Web production. Recording is my passion and when I'm not producing you can find me on the disc-golf course or rock climbing with friends.
My electronic music started with my very first PC in 1993. I bought a Turtle Beach sound card and noticed that things didn't work properly and i traded it in for a better Sound Blaster Gold card which worked good at first. After many days of trouble shooting I figured out how to create my own sound banks (not necessary anymore) but I needed RAM sim chips. I purchased the most memory I could which at the time was probably 16mb that were very big and heavy and the weight actually put an arc in the sound card because of its length. Using one of the very first versions of Cake Walk I constructed my first tunes. Ever since the first time I played with the electronics I knew I wanted to program in pattern mode for non-stop live performances. I did program a few written songs but stopped soon after. Computers back then were a lot noisier than today's technologies and so unreliable that I decided to never use a computer for my music. To think about relying on a computer for my sound and performance would give me a instant headache and still does. Back then I played other instruments also, guitar, casio with effects, drum kits, and boss drum machines and I realized I needed to started gathering production modules so that I could build the ultimate performance workstation. The Roland MC-505 was a god send with its many different ways of programing capabilities and was my first main purchase. It's real-time playability is still hard to match even compared to the most recent modules. Then within a couple years after that I was able to add more units to the midi link. Eventually I was able to design a custom box to make it the most powerful workstation that you can put onto a single keyboard stand. But I never lost touch with real instruments still playing guitars, keys, and vocals. I have played with the new software apps like Reason and although it can be fun and totally awesome, I don't like it and don't trust it..
