    The Tourist (Magnificent 7 / Groundsound) has been keeping his whites clean and his music (and martinis) dirty, since the early nineties. While starting off as a DJ initially satisfied his thirst for playing music out, the desire to produce his version of the music he was playing, came shortly thereafter. Coming from a varied musical family, The Tourist's influences are fittingly all over the map - You're as likely to hear nods to Sonic Youth and Zeppelin, as you are to underground hip-hop dons, Sacred Hoop and techno legend, Neil Landstrumm. His general disdain for music scene politics keeps him a little further from the clubs than many of his peers, resulting in a truly unique style, untainted by overpopulated trends and ideas, relying more on what he encounters on a daily basis for musical inspiration. Whether it's the last dusty record he left on the platter the night previous, the last sip of Jameson, the last goal scored by Man U, or the last argument he got in to, you can find bits and pieces of it all, in his audio outbursts. As a fixture in the San Francisco music scene for over a decade, The Tourist has proved to be relentless in his mission to provide something a little different for the Bay Area and the global music community. www.myspace.com/tourism www.myspace.com/themagsevens http://quaketrap.com/tourist.html
