about
Donald Gordon-Bell (aka fishboi: sfo) is a composer, songwriter, performer and moving towards my degree as a mastering engineer as well as proprietor of DGB Records. Originally from Rhode Island, Donald has lived all over the United States. All through school, and in every state, he was a vocalist. In 1982, he received "Best Tenor" for a High School Student for the State of Kentucky. All State Choir, Soloist, Madrigal Choir; 4 years in a row. He studied communications at the University of North Florida. He left the music scene in 1988, but returned in 2001 while living in San Francisco, CA. Currently working on his second album’s release, "The Bubble Machine" as well as his third production, "Global" which is slated for release in Spring, 2008. Donald has produced music for Kirstin William's "Strong Current Dance Company" performances in San Francisco, CA and New York, NY. His works have received critical acclaim from musicians, engineers, and fans. His first Album, "Schooled Beneath the Surface" is currently available on iTunes and hundreds of other music sites. "The Bubble Machine" will come online and be available in April of this year through multiple digital music services. http://fishboisfo.com/

i know how to read music; still learning acoustics, temperment and theory: everything i have learned has been through experience and experimentation. (( and a lot of practice )) Save for a few drum loops, I have ventured off into making most all of my own samples. I sit in my house for hours with headphones on playing with synths and vocal recordings. I am a complete Nerd in that respect.
