          Sonic scientist, instrumentalist, music producer,  and DJ  "Kitty-D" began making music in the womb by adding a breakbeat to his mothers pulse.    Playskool xylaphones and speak'n'spells followed soon thereafter and when he learned how to speak human he asked nicely for guitars and casio synths which he treated as his pets and cuddled with them at night.    At 11 he was allowed to plug into his first guitar amp and then started running casios through guitar effects pedals and amps and his passion for electronic music was born.    
             The date was may 6th,  1989... since then he has embraced multiple musical genres and made his own along the way.     Rocking dinosaur crunk bass, haunting melodies and glitched out alien wraith transmissions with hip-hop, pop, and soul that he often improvises live in multiple channels with his lapdemon computer pet that sometimes tries to control him.     Surfing soundwaves from other dimensions and invoking ass shaking and precious moments of internal organs vibrating on the dancefloor.  
                 Using an arsenal library of manipulated sampled recordings and self created sounds to initialize a universe of "sonic fiction", he was one of the original five members of the Glitch Mob, has collaborated with Random Rab, Ooah, Mimosa , and many other entities of various backgrounds recording in bassments with musicians that rock it 'till the break of dawn and on and on then 'till the breaka breaka dawn the next day.     Playing festivals with his friends on large sound systems (also his friends) is one of his faves with his dynamic range of original and live multi channel / improv/ dj mashup styles of sonic supernovas that jouney light years from beyond and from the people right there getting crunk on the dancefloor.   When he's back in the bay area he throws the legendary club night "Beat Church" in S.F. with his friends twice a month that has helped spotlight and expose some of the biggest names in West Coast underground bass music and cutting edge audio alchemy for over 10 years.     He also likes to record and glitch out paranormal frequencies from other dimensions that are curious about us too.     He doesn't release much of his music in the traditional sense but it's out there.
