THE DRT PRJCT
Putting my MUSIC and MULTIMEDIA PASSION into it's own package. I feel that am reaping the benefits of all those listens, the huge variety, and music related experiences which have filled my brain, body and soul for 63 years. I'm not an average grandpa. With purpose. I’ve learned to composed and produced many original songs in GarageBand (free) which has been a crazy good amount of learning and discovery.
Currently working on THE DRT PRJCT Live for The Short Movie. 
September 20.23. Victoria BC Canada. Electro Trash Beats, Fire Flow Dancers, jester/entertainer, percussionist, guitarist, theremin,
Smoke Bombs, Epic 
Background Videos, Skullptures and so much more.

AI (artificial intelligence) is certainly everywhere these daze. In the creative world we'll need to make personal choices on how we engage with. DRT will remain human with a bit of inspiration and aid from the robots.
Playlist on Apple Music 'Essential 40 years of Cool/Indie Music' is a great overview of Indie and Alternative Music (15+ hours) over the last 4 decades. Some tracks became Classics, often years after their initial release, some made it into Hollywood Movies. It also suggests where my original music is derived... ANYTHING GOES and EVERYTHING is Something. AURAL SCULPURES.
People and Bands see Live that I love.
