Amon tobin

Musician, programmer, recording artist, beatsmith, dance floor commander, composer, sound designer, bad ass motherfucker. Amon Tobin is all of these things but most of all a forward thinker. Pushing forward and never looking back has always been his focus. This is what gets him up in the morning and what keeps him up late into night.

Amon Tobin never set out to be in the music industry. To him music is an end in itself, not a path to commercial success. His own success is basically a bi product of his obsession and remains something of a welcome mystery to him. The fact is, whether or not the world had ever heard of Amon Tobin he would still be creating music. His life has been a long term love affair with sound and rhythm and a personal study of both. his work is a contribution to the evolution of sound in the spirit of the pioneers of electronic music.

Amon has released a series of critically claimed full lenght albums alongside a number of side projects which vary from film score work to collaborations with artists who range from classical to hip hop and much in between. Curiosity and a relentless drive to explore has lead Amon to various places in music but the the real fruits of this are in the combined knowledge gained from these experiences. Knowledge of how music music and sound work and the passionate application of this to his own personal creations.

     Hello, 

      My name is David Ohlinger and I am a huge Amon fan. I drove all the way from phoenix arizona, to los angeles two different times to catch the ISAM show both times it was there. I bought the ISAM vinyl and T-shirts and basically I really am a big fan. I am also a 34 year old full time college student, father of 4 and husband to one amazing woman. I asked for only one thingfor christmas this year from my wife, the ISAM dvd. Sadly, it is of course not for sale anymore and thus, I am very sad. The ISAM show was one of the most meaningful nights of my life and by far the most amazing show I have ever seen. I would literally drive to alaska to see it again.....so you can imagine how much happiness it would give me to have the ISAM experience in my own living room. Please Please Please tell me you have a copy laying around somewhere you can sell me...If it matters at all, I can promise you it would be going to someone who truly appreciates and loves it and would cherish it for a long long time to come.
    Thanks for taking the time to read this and happy holidays to everyone there at camp TOBIN
    ;)
    cheers,
