Riding on the success of placing top 3 for Glitch.fm's "Gliitch EP" remix contest, Meta Zen has been gaining momentum as an artist, performer, and DJ. As a result, his hit track, "Countdown" will be released on Substruk records shortly and will be available on major online music retailer sits. Meta Zen's improvisational live remixing, scratching, and robotic dance moves create a unique and interactive live show known to mesmerize and inspire the audience to dance to his 'psychedelectronic' sound. Meta Zen recently was asked to play a guest spot on Glitch.fm's 50th Basstream radio show. He played a full Live improvisational set on Basstream Radio; creating live remixes while mixing all of his own music -as well as modulating effects parameters live. The honor of playing this guest spot has been bestowed to accomplished psychedelic bass musicians that are on the cutting edge of music production (such as Bird of Prey, Seventh Swami, Splatinum, etc
