<div style="text-align: left;">There is music, and then there's architectural monuments, and in our very first Spotlight we turn our attentions to the a manufacturer of beautiful spires. <strong>fate_atc</strong>.<br /><br />I stumbled across this artist by pure chance and I'm glad to have made his aquaintance. Always generous with his comments, and a great human being into the bargain, which his why he arrives as the first spotlight-An artist as an artist should be. Honest, pure in imagination and alive with talent that modesty prevents him from even seeing.<br /><br />Hailing from New Zealand and a Mixposure member since May 2008, his music lifts you into the stratosphere and keeps you there until the end. Tracks such as <strong>Exploration, Pathos</strong> and <strong>loves_reply</strong> drive you away from your own existance into a place residing within fate_atc's own mind. <br /><br />Under his influences comes a broad array of fine musicians that echo in and out of his own music. Boards of Canada, Miles Davis and John Coltrane are there to name but a few.<br /><br />"<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>FATC <br />Fate Amenable to Change.</strong></span><br /><br /><em>I am a solo parent of 3 kids emerging from their teenage years.Their mother died.<br /><br />I am recently married to Lisa,my partner in crime,who relocated from Texas to live with me at the end of the earth,and in this I am truely blessed.<br /><br />I received a classical education on piano, then taught myself guitar, and more recently, have been exploring the virtual studio world.<br /><br />I am the midi controller.I believe in a free life for the creative spirit.<br />I like to mind my own business,and not pass judgement on others. Most of the trouble in the world is caused by talentless,unempathic finks who don't mind their own business,who have "nothing" to contribute but the destructiveness that arises from their dead spiritual core.<br />I don't like harassment pandas,and I don't like blowflies.<br /><br /></em>"The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench A long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free And good men die like dogs.
