Nicolle Neulist / rogueclown
as Nicolle "rogueclown" Neulist
nicolle neulist, otherwise known as rogueclown, has been interested in music her entire life, and has been playing with computers in various capacities since she was three. She has been singing since she was a child…and has made many attempts at playing instruments, although her lack of finger dexterity made that a rather difficult (and ultimately cacophonous) proposition. However, a few years ago, she finally discovered the power of computers as a musical composition platform, and since then, they have been her primary instrument for exploring and realizing her musical ideas.
