  Ernest Gonzales - While on Saturn's Rings
Download   |  

My name is Ernest Gonzales and I am a Hyphenated American aka Hispanic, Chicano, Latino, or Mexican - Whatever you want to call it. I grew up next door to the Alamo, but my Spanish is muy pequito. I am the only child of an electrician father and a Home Depot customer service rep mom. Latch-key only child = video games, drawing trees, making bow and arrows, too much MTV, and pizza pockets. Somehow in between engineering camps I decided to go to art school but I have no plans on painting the Virgen de Guadalpe. During that time I used extra scholarship money to buy my first drum machine. See kids, it does pay off to make good grades. All this leads to music production. I have no plans on making any raggaeton beats. So I leave you, Ernest Gonzales, a Hyphenated American making music. Hip Hop, Experimental, Electronic - whatever you want to call it. My album, "While on Saturn's Rings", came out in October of 2007, features a remix by Daedelus, reached 8 on the CMJ RPM Charts, and is good to do yoga or make out to. Maybe both at the same time if your a freak. I also run this label called Exponential...you might have heard of it but if not you soon will.
