hello, my name is Ryan. i'm a 33 year-old Industrial musician. i used to play bass-guitar in crust/hardcore punk bands and such too. i have nerve damage in my left arm now, thus i haven't been able to play my guitars. however, it only takes one hand to hold a microphone and start up a sampler/sequencer...

i love dancing to goth/industrial club music now, and somehow i never danced too much until i was 32, and now i find dancing to be rather addictive.

i LOVE Leland City Club. i have a very difficult time getting there lately. i sold my car after i left my last job, because i knew i couldn't afford it. the problem is that most of my friends either A) don't dance B) don't like goth/industrial music C) forgot about me after i sold my car :/

i live in Farmington Hills. i'm an extremely non-judgemental person and prefer to treat everyone and anyone as an equal. i do my best to anyway. i'm a really nice dude. the only time i can be a jerk is when people are rude and/or disrespectful. i have a very low tolerance for B.S.

i spend lots of time working on music. i do three main solo projects:

Redrot

http://soundcloud.com/redrot

--- my main project, started as a death-industrial project, now i make high energy, and very danceable bass-heavy electronic industrial poisoned with dubstep style electronic bass, death-metal style intensity and rhythms, furious hardcore-punk styled vocals... i can sing too, i just prefer to scream. it's far more cathartic.

Neuntöter der Plage

http://soundcloud.co...toter-der-plage

--- morbid and ritualistic black-ambient music, dark dark dark soundscapes, scathing black-metal vocals, my lyrics typically focus upon recurring dreams and nightmares, like entering the sewers through dream or hallucination and what draws you forward into the black is the breathing darkness itself, the living shadows pulling you closer, the corporeal undertow...

Klinikal Skum

http://soundcloud.com/klinikal-skum

--- educational music, esoterra, analog-synthesizers, shortwave radio interferences, fried out electronics, sometimes compositional, sometimes improvised... always FULL ON MORBIDITY. psychiatry/hospitals/disease/fetish/therapy seem to be recurring themes...

i'm not here to spam everyone with all that business... i'm looking to make some new friends, perhaps find a ride to City Club, meet a nice gal... who knows. i'm here to meet you folks.

be nice to me :)

later on...

Greetings, feel free to look around and enjoy yourself.

For me, I find that posting on this site is very therapeutic and it deals with a multitude of topics. Also, if you do not find a topic that fits your needs, you can always start a new one to address your issues. Members here are fun to converse with and are great at giving advice and/or helping to resolve misconceptions and misunderstandings.

So do make yourself at home and see you around.

Later

    • So I just got back from Happy Endings and I saw @DJ Saintthere.  He told me that after I got kicked out of High Dive that later on Mike also attacked him, and Mike and his crew were also kicked out.  Then we talked about the scene and possible upcoming gigs.  I hope something comes his way soon, as well as mine too.  With the current economy I think more club owners will be hungry to try more things like goth/industrial/other alternative nights.  I've also heard that GenZ isn't online dating and is actually going out into the world to meet people which may also help business owners, though they aren't drinking which doesn't really help much.  I think more places are going to need to start serving food and mocktails to make up the difference. Then Mike showed up at Happy Endings which I thought was highly likely because I hadn't seen him there in a while, and @DJ Aaron Hingst,@elektrosonik, and his husband Tim were all there too.  He did something else I wasn't expecting...  Which was he actually shook my hand and said it was good to see me, which caught me a little off guard.  He didn't apologize for anything but it's a start I think.  I told him I was sorry to hear about @djpleasurekitten's passing (which I was/am.  Despite the rift that ended up existing between us we were friends at one point.) So maybe he's moving on finally?  If so then I'm glad.  I'm still not sure if I'll ever go back, but it is at least a start, and it's nice to actually see he's trying to bury the hatchet in something other than my skull.
    • Stargate Universe, which everyone said sucked but I'm actually enjoying it? Like there are less jokes, but lots of dark humor, and people might actually die rather than have 10ft thick plot armor?  Yes please more of this!
    • Failbook is blocked so I can't see any of the info. "Oh you don't need to login to view!" No, you don't understand...  This is my /etc/hosts file:   # Block Meta IPv6 fe80::1%lo0 facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 login.facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 www.login.facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 fbcdn.net fe80::1%lo0 www.fbcdn.net fe80::1%lo0 fbcdn.com fe80::1%lo0 www.fbcdn.com fe80::1%lo0 static.ak.fbcdn.net fe80::1%lo0 static.ak.connect.facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 connect.facebook.net fe80::1%lo0 www.connect.facebook.net fe80::1%lo0 apps.facebook.com12 # Block Meta IPv4 0.0.0.0 facebook.com ~~~~~ A METRIC FUCKTON OF OTHER FB DOMAINS ~~~~~ 0.0.0.0 zh-tw.facebook.com I had to edit it and cut off many lines because it's 2171 lines long and the overwhelming majority is just Facebook domains. Those IPs for v4 and v6 mean they lead to the HTTP equivalent of /dev/null X/Twitter is blocked too.  I need to block Alphabet/Google and Microsoft as well, but they're actually useful for certain things (damn you YouTube and GitHub!)
