Bio:
Recording indie keyboard music since 2000. I Started putting up tracks on mp3.com back when it was the "only" music scene on the internet, and just enjoyed sharing music. Once I realized that some actually enjoyed listening, I kept at it back when I had all the time as a "stay-at-home" dad (no longer) and before long made a couple albums. After mp3.com died, everyone went elsewhere, and I branched out with my own site. I put the albums up for sale, and continue to sell those works today through stevenkeys.com and cdbaby.com. I've taken a several year hiatus, but have recently re-discovered my love for recording on the mac, when I ran into garageband. What a simple, straightforward, recording tool that is ready out of the box to make complex works. I'm excited about messing around with it and looking forward to making new tracks, and collaborating with others.

Music Background

Simply put, this has always been a hobby of mine. I've been messing around with the indie/internet music scene since summer of 2000. I got started making new age & modern medieval keyboard tracks on mp3.com where I received over 75,000 plays back in the day,before it died, and then branched out with my own site stevenkeys.com. I currently sell my old albums through cdbaby.com and my own site, and still have interests in recording more of the same, plus experimenting in other genres as well. Now that technology is introducing cooler and cooler hardware and software (go apple!) for making music on your desk, I've become more and more interested in recording and hope to make many more tracks to come!
