Bio:
The Flashbulb is one of the many trade names of Benn Jordan, an eccentric
and shockingly diverse recording artist that has dominated the underground
of electronic music for years. Jordan was and is arguably a key figure in
the job of redefining and pioneering new landmarks in computer-based music,
and many listeners and artists agree that he is one of the most talented
electronic musicians of the generation. Rather than just aiming to make
strange sounds, Jordan seems to base most his impressively large collection
of written material (a discography that surpasses 30 known releases as of
2003) on the ingredients that make emotional and beautiful music. His
personality seems as diverse as his music. He
claims to enjoy writing music overnight in elevators and he has most
recently been found promoting controversial electronic music shows for a
dog. Just as Benn may be the worst publicist in the world, his lacking
qualities can be easily forgiven by his talents, be it in guitar playing,
sitar playing, computer sequencing, or just plain raw talent.
