onecasemanFounder, Editor-In-Chief Casey Winters is your typical music junkie. Initially an electronic music guru, Casey now finds himself into a myriad of styles, finding most love for the albums that seem to clash as many genres together as possible. Casey has been a long-time message board warrior on IGN, becoming the "electronica expert" on its music boards. In 2006, he decided to purpose a Googlepages site for music recommendations. Surprised by the overwhelming response, Casey started to discuss the creation of a full-fledged music site with some friends, where not only he, but others with good taste, could review new music. From this idea, themusiclobby.com was born. headphone commuteContributor Headphone Commute prefers to remain anonymous. A lover of all things electronic, Headphone Commute eschews vocals for the sounds of laptops of altered instruments. From IDM to modern classical to dubstep to ambient to post-rock to breakcore, Headphone Commute covers it. For additional info, check out headphonecommute.com.

Having always been a massive music enthusiast with a constant hunger for new music, he has been writing music reviews for prominent Turkish entertainment & arts magazine Bant for three years, along with online reviews on Basatap. His taste in music covers a broad range, but puts the biggest emphasis on minimal tech/house, ambient and contemporary classical. Having met Casey online thanks to a similar approach to music reviews, he continues his enthusiasm, writing for The Music Lobby. Further information and portfolio available on erdemtasdelen.com playbynumbersContributor Paul H. is a doctoral philosophy student, amateur photographer, and The Music Lobby's resident vinyl enthusiast. A long-time member of the WATMM forums, he spends entirely too much time searching for new music; as of late he has become obsessed with the techno/dub/electro axis of electronic producers, though he's mostly interested in ambient, IDM, and indie-esque rock (on vinyl, whenever possible!). neveryanContributor Ryan is an aspiring filmmaker and musician from Texas. Initially a post rock and ambient fiend, Ryan's taste has expanded into a surprisingly wide landscape, from dubstep to hip-hop to indie. He currently creates experimental electracoustic music under the moniker Agent Nerve, and appeared on the Deep Sea Creatures compilation from Futonic Records. gravelheadwrapContributor Chris Morris is a bedroom DJ that is occasionally asked to play gigs, a vinyl collector/excavator, photographer, graphic designer, printmaker, and screen-printer. His interest in music began with his dad's jazz records and music from the skate videos his older brother had. He got his first turntables in the 8th grade and began learning scratch techniques with Charlie Brown and other spoken word records. He doesn't scratch anymore; he just listens and collects records these days. His main musical tastes include free jazz, Brazilian music, African and eastern sounds, hip-hop, electronic music, and MOSTLY beat music. Hip-hop music has been his gateway into many different genres of music due to the use of sampling and the art of digging for records. |
