Massdirge's first official release was written, engineered, performed, arranged, and mastered by David Doktor from 2004-2007, though a few ideas originated from embryonic experimental times around 2001. See MEDIA. for sound clips.

Nearly all of my vocals are spur-of-the-moment paroxysms in either English, Russian, or odd undecipherable frustrated mumblings. Consequently, I remember little of what was mouthed. Whatever.

I'm a gear-head, sure, with a small but effective studio containing some respectable pieces of equipment. I'll never post the tools anywhere because it's wankerous to do so. Great, you have seven virtual analog synths, a Manley Vox Box, GML eq, Waves plug-in bundles galore, and Pro Tools HD with an AWS-900 desk... what's your music like, more importantly?

I don't use computers live, but I do play to backing because it's just fucking me up there. My type is an endangered species who still believes in a live show. The zone envelops me and it's then when I get caught in the moment. I couldn't stand stationary behind racks or tabletops even if I wanted. Sorry to disappoint.
