In my personal world, I have a wife and three kids. I work as a biomedical equipment technologist by day, a father and husband by night and occasionally I find the time to slap some ink on a page. Those brief moments come together and create something special. I always add elements of fantasy, science and religion in my books. Those are, after all, my specialties. I hold a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering from MSOE and a M.Div. in Pastoral Ministries from the Grand Rapids Theological Seminary. As for gaming, I’m an active forum member on GOG (“Tallima”). I love a good RPG, but have the hardest time finishing one. I play so slowly that the game usually outlasts my hard drive. Some of my favorites are the Baldur’s Gate series, Realms of Arkania, Might and Magic and Dragon Age. I should say that I also have a soft spot for Splinter Cell. Groupees have been very fun to watch. I’ve only purchased a few because you can get so many games for so cheap that it takes a while to play through them (remember: I play slowly). But I’m a sucker for older titles that I missed ages ago or budget/indie titles that offer gameplay experiences unmatched by AAA titles. If you like to get a moment away from the computer and read a good fantasy novel, then I invite you to sit down with one of my books and visit my imagination. I currently have three books on the market with a handful more slowly unraveling on the keyboard. Enjoy! P.S. If you want to send me a message, send it to TheDarkestWand@gmail.com

Hamburg-based Techno artist Remute has a very ‘technological’ approach to this genre - intense interaction with technology made him do the most amazing things: Remute’s career began in the early 2000s with his first EP ‘Hypnoconsole’ which unmistakably drew inspiration from the flickering world of early 80s and 90s computergames and acid-filled rave-sequences mixed up in a timeless punky DIY-way - even in 2017 ‘Hypnoconsole’ is still considered as a ‘punk techno’ reference by Bandcamp. The success of his first release made Remute tour for years and perform at acclaimed festivals and clubs like for example Golden Pudel and Berghain. Various contemporary high-profile labels got aware of Remute - in 2006 he released his self-titled debut album via the legendary label ‘Ladomat’ from Hamburg. After several further releases on labels like Tresor, Traum, Smallville or Bedrock Remute founded his very own Remute-label in 2008. The first release of the label, ‘Zuendli’, became an instant hit and is considered as one the most successful and celebrated tracks of the minimal techno era of the late 2000s. More punchy club hits and BBC1 favourites like the cheeky acid-house banger ‘Lampuca For Me’ or the spacey open air techno anthem ‘Gravity?’ followed and Remute also became a busy remixer for artists like GusGus, Solomun, Dominik Eulberg or Daniel Avery. Driven by the urge to push the boundaries of TECHNOlogy, it was never enough for Remute to deliver dancefloors hits only. Since the beginning of his career Remute was the sole ruler of his artistic vision and no managers, no agents and no producers were ever allowed to interfere with his work: While others in the early 2010s were busy to jump on the EDM-bandwaggon and took the first opportunity to sell out, Remute devoted himself to commercially risky and artistically uncompromising projects like ‘24’, which is a 24 hour long ambient recording (named by Mixmag as a ‘24 hour anthem’) and ‘REMUTE24’, a series of digital music releases remixing news headlines running for over 6 years, week by week, non-stop. Additionally he released highly successful J-Pop with his song ‘Play The Game’, recorded a Cyberpunk-esque soundtrack for the classic silent film ‘Metropolis’ with his 2014 album ‘Yoshiwara’ (got him ‘Album Of The Month’ honours in Mixmag) and was very active as a soundtrack-producer for several videogames. After over 15 years in music business and countless gigs from Miami to Moscow to Tokio, 2018 is a pivotal year for Remute: His album ‘Limited’, a hybrid release consisting of 7” vinyl and a 3,5” floppy disk, is regarded as a trailblazer of a strong floppy disk comeback… as a valid music format! With some clever usage of technology and creative dealing with the data limitations of this format, Remute once more succeeds in establishing his very own technologic sound aesthetics and setting new distinctive trends for unique performances while constantly questioning the status quo. Besides getting enthusiastically labelled as ‘limited techno’ by CBC, the Los Angeles Times also points out that he is Techno’s only true Disk Jockey - literally.

Jan Jacob Mekes was born in 1982 in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, in the body of an English-language writer. For three decades, he tried to suppress the stories, but it was to no avail: they gained the upper hand, and he gave in. So now he writes stories of various length spanning multiple genres, but always with a dash of humour. When not busy writing fiction, he works as a freelance writer and translator (from English into Dutch and vice versa), and as a volunteer for the local police force, writing about its history (after having acquired his BA in that). He also likes gaming, photography, nature, and cats. Oh, and reading, of course.

PUSHIT is an alternative rock band from Argentina. The band started playing in 2004, releasing one EP and two LPs to date, which represent the path and evolution of its music.

PUSHIT is raw energy, edified on a powerful sound, with lyrics that reflect a clear message: to push, to go through and to move on. It’s about intense songs that convey passion, with a style that was the 90’s trademark sound.

Their debut record “Desde Arriba” was released on 2004, and featured their first single also called Desde Arriba, which achieved a very high rotation in MTV Latin America. After a lineup change and several years of hard work, PUSHIT recorded their first LP “Mar Infierno” and was finally released on 2009, whom refined the band’s sound even more. In Mar Infierno’s presentation tour in 2010, PUSHIT was faced with the greatest of adversities to date: Mariano Merlo, its singer and bassist, had a severe accident that took 4 months to heal, and put the whole band on standby during almost a year.

Arriving 2011, and after Mariano’s complete recovery, they went back to stage and started rehearsing what was going to be their new LP. Released in 2012, “Tatuandome La Vita” is PUSHIT’s musical breakthrough, which also featured a new bassist (Alvaro Cueto Rúa) so Mariano could focus on vocals. Since 2013, PUSHIT is promoting their latest record, with shows across all Buenos Aires and also adding visual projections to the shows, to make Tatuandome La Vida’s message even stronger.

Heavily influenced by the like of the Swans, Afghan whigs, Soundgaden and Husker du Dylans music in turn is challenging, and original. His songs are often laced with cryptic meaning.

Catch the Bear exemplifies the title of one man band playing a variety of instruments on his songs. Many of his tracks feature several layers of guitars with melodies that compliment one another and add texture to the music.

He comes from the future on a mission to save the World from itself, deluded by visions of cyborgs this futuristic Don Quixote, his lance, a Thermal Nuclear Magnum 357,000, his Dulcinea, an ample-breasted Barista at Big Bucks, takes up arms against the numbing influences of modern life and in particular pop culture’s embrace of the violent hero archetype, a bumbling, bungling knight errant, 8 feet, 375 pounds of cybergenetic poultry, the perfect killing machine, who through his mayhem-laced adventures from Brooklyn to Bombay, and points in between, reveals the fundamental quality of a true hero, a deep and abiding humanity, his name, Cyber-Chicken, or to his friends at Big Bucks in Brooklyn, Jonny Cappuccino….
