I do not play live, I don't have the desire to play electronic shows since I'm not a pianist by trade, nor do I want to rehearse my tracks to play them perfectly live including sound automations etc... If the opportunity arose for me to play drums in another metal band and perform live, I'd be all for it.
My greatest influences on my drumming style are (in no particular order) Dream Theater (Mike Portnoy), Arch Enemy (Daniel Erlandsson), Cradle of Filth (Adrian Erlandsson), At The Gates (Adrian Erlandsson), Gojira (Mario Duplantier), and Opeth (Martin Lopez and Martin Axenrot).
My guitar playing comes from a wide range of sources, none of which I can really put my finger on. Unlike drumming, I rarely cover songs on guitar because it doesn't come naturally to me and my guitar playing skills don't quite compare to my drumming capabilities.
My Electronic / Techno influences are Rusko, Nero, Infected Mushroom, Kill The Noise, and Zedd (just to name a few)
