The BassForge Origin Story

I didn’t grow up expecting to build a universe called BassForge. I didn’t plan on writing books about ancient temple science, traveling through Egypt decoding symbols, or teaching thousands of people how to understand reality in a deeper way. I was just a kid in Wichita trying to follow the “safe path,” doing everything society told me to do.

At 25, I had a computer engineering degree I didn’t care about, a job that made me feel empty, and a future that looked like an endless loop of clocking in, clocking out, and slowly watching my spirit fade. I realized pretty quickly that a life built on someone else’s blueprint was never going to work for me. So I quit. No plan. No guarantees. Just a knowing.

My first escape? Hanging off the sides of high-rise buildings cleaning windows. And honestly… it taught me more freedom, presence, and trust than four years of engineering ever did. But once I left Kansas, I understood something deeper: life isn’t supposed to be about survival. It’s supposed to be about creation.

Music pulled me in next. Electronic music felt like the meeting point between engineering and emotion — a place where math and magic touched. Producing opened doors in my mind I didn’t know existed, and the scene introduced me to the people, opportunities, and love I’d been missing. It also pushed me into the world of consulting and coaching, helping artists and professionals break their own mental barriers and find their voice.

That work eventually evolved into Harmonic Alchemy — my mental framework for identity shifting, clarity, and becoming resilient enough to build the life you’re meant for. And as my curiosity grew, my path expanded far beyond music. I spent years studying sacred geometry, megalithic architecture, consciousness, Hermetic philosophy, and the ancient sciences that modern culture ignores. That work became Cryptex Esoterica, Geomatrix, Hidden History, and the entire BassForge library.

BassForge is the place where all of it comes together — music, research, spirituality, science, storytelling, design, and community. It’s my contribution to the EDM world, to the esoteric world, and honestly… to the universe. A space where anyone who feels different, curious, creative, or awake can learn, grow, and build something real.

My goal — always — is to remove mental barriers for anyone who wants more from their life. Whether you’re discovering BassForge through my books, my videos, my DJ sets, or the community inside The Forge: Inner Grid Project, you’re part of this world now.

I teach because I’ve lived it. I help because people helped me. And everything I’ve created — every book, course, bundle, design, and piece of art — is meant to give you the tools I wish I had when I started.

If you ever want to connect, learn, collaborate, or even send me remixes of my tracks… reach out. I might just play them live. 😈
