What are your hobbies and favorite activities?
I love music of all kinds, especially of the electronic variety (but not the mindless repetitive techno you might be imagining). I DJ in my spare time. I collect vinyl records of many genres. I enjoy craft beers (especially various Belgian styles). I enjoy watching quality films (mostly independent or classic films, rarely Hollywood blockbusters). I'm a complete Nintendo freak and I rarely go anywhere without my Nintendo DS. I also love to read and cook.
What else should the members of B&B know about you?
I'm tall (6 feet, 4 inches), and very slim. I have an extremely deep voice that I've been told doesn't fit my appearance at all. I tend to gravitate towards all things unusual or obscure, which is probably one of the reasons I was attracted to shaving with a DE razor and a shaving brush.
The other is that I went through years of shaving with a Mach 3 and canned cream, constantly suffering from bumps, irritated skin, and a thick mustache (inherited from my father) that just wouldn't stay away! The classic shaving method has solved all my shaving problems.

Who are you into? Compared to you, I'm an old fart (39), but I still like Aphex Twin, Four Tet, Fennesz, Ellen Allien, and a few others. Welcome to the forum!

Thanks for the welcome, everyone!
Much of the same, actually! I'm really into Aphex Twin and Four Tet. But my favorite electronic artists are James Stinson (R.I.P.) and Gerald Donald, who have produced music under many names, such as Drexciya, Dopplereffekt, Arpanet, Der Zyklus, etc. Originally Posted by inkling

I like of Squarepusher, Autechre, Plaid and Arpanet, but I'll need to check into the other artists (and aliases) -- thanks for the tips! The electronic scene has so many subgenres and subsubgenres, it's hard to keep it all straight. I am really enjoying AFX/AT's Chosen Lords, which is my most recent purchase. Again, welcome!

[SIZE="1"]Ah... You can't beat the cold steel and the badger. All this electrical rubbish, little wheels spinning around all over the place for callow youths and peach fluff, Not for a man's beard. Razor blades for men! I think we'll have this on number 9. If you're going to have a shave have a close one!

Welcome. Between Texas and Oregon, we are starting to take over a couple of states!
