The Rocktronica produced by Tribrix may contain the following audio ingredients:
deadpan screams, angelic robots, deep fuzzy bass, pulsing throbs, hard edged guitars, playful dance riffs, heavy drums, electro loops, overdriven hammond chords, warm synth tones and many others.
Although this combination of sounds may be unfamiliar to you, take comfort in the fact that no deaths have yet been reported due to their combined effects. You can hear for yourself in the two windows on the right (perhaps you hear it now). Tribrix is not responsible for any toe tapping, head bobbing, or butt shaking which may result from this aural smorgasbord. If you feel you have been positively or negatively affected by anything you hear here, please don’t hesitate to leave a message. Every attempt will be made to answer all inquires personally.

John Cage, The Slickee Boys, Junior Vasquez, Iron Maiden, New Order, The Jam, Yellow Magic Orchestra, Beethoven, The Gossip, The Human League, Rush, Erasure, Judas Priest, Dresden Dolls, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Every Little Thing, Shostokovich, and Flock of Seagulls, among others.
While they may not be "influences" in the purest sense of the word, they are artists that inspire me to make music. This list is mostly incomplete.
Sounds Like
Take a handful of hard edged garage Rock, chuck it in a blender with a gob of electronic dance music and you’ll understand what Tribrix is all about. Add some angry political lyrics and airy robotic angels for an even better sense of the stylistic auto accident that is this sound. Imagine a three-way with Daft Punk, System of a Down, and Linkin’ Park. It’s Deep Purple meets New Order, with a dash of Clash and Kraftwerk for flavor. Think Green Day remixed by Paul Van Dyk, you get the idea. Tribrix is about having fun, being loud, and bouncing your brain about.
Tribrix music is freely available, depending on how dedicated you are - you can get all of it for free if you really try, and there's several CDs worth of music to find. But if you like what you hear, please consider supporting this effort financially. A small purchase, a T-shirt or even just a song from iTunes is really great way of voting with your wallet. If you can’t afford to support Tribrix financially, please send Tribirx music to all of your friends. Spreading the word can be just as helpful as spending money. Thank you in advance for anything you do to contribute to the success of Tribrix!
For those of you wanting a more, traditional biography; the Story so far, “I began making music in 1989 with two tape decks and a Radio Shack mixer that a friend of mine lent me. It was cude, and the sound was terrible. Soon I got a 4-track recorder and later a PC based midi setup. In each instance, I took the technology to the limits of my talent and abilities, and always found the results lacking. My music was interesting, for sure, but it wasn't mainstream and I didn't expect to find a following."
"Maybe you’ve been out, looking to buy something, and discovered no one was selling the thing you wanted. That happened to me. I first picked up an electric guitar in 1989, and even started to write some music, but nothing with lyrics. But I never thought about being a musician, full time, it was just something I liked to do. But after trying for years to find kind of rockin' Christmas album you could dance to, in 2005 I decided to start working on one myself. I had no idea it would take over my life. But it has."
"In addition to the Christmas album I started producing Beethoven tracks that attempt to blend Rock and Electronica, like all the music I've been working on. I let my sister preview some of the things I'd been working on, but she said she couldn’t understand music without lyrics. So, I wrote the song, “I Don’t Wanna’ Fight”. I can’t tell you why that changed everything for me, but it did. Was it the inclusion of the lyrics? I can’t tell you, but I was just so motivated to create. I went back to the Christmas album and added some vocal tracks. I started writing lyrics and songs all the time. But my prime focus is on TechNoel, the record that started this whole life changing process. The deadline was Christmas '07, the record is finished. Take a listen.“
Update 1-3-08: Working on lots of New Stuff for '08. You can hear "He Hates", the very latest Tribrix track recorded late in '07, in the Myspace player above.
