About
Chris Brian Taylor is from San Francisco and lives in Los Angeles. He did the punk thing
and then the DJ thing, and has most recently been focusing on live
feedback electronics. His projects have included computer supported solo
work, various improvised groupings and a compositional outing with the
Subjective Pitch Matching Band. He continues to DJ house, techno and
downtempo on occasion and plays music that's rarely that on the One Billion
BPM radio show for Lower Grand Radio on the 4th Tuesday of the month at
9:30pm PST. He helps with the Surface World label. He got to open for Newworldaquarium once - that was
super sick.
