Tim Fite is a bit of a Dr. Frankenstein -- he builds his masterpieces from pieces of the dead. Dead music, that is. Fite's modus operandi in music production is to use bargain-bin CDs, costing $1 or less, as a source of all his samples. The result is part rock, part pop, part folk, part country, part hip-hop yet fully entertaining. In the space of a few lines, Tim's vocals can go from twang-ified drawl to street-wise rapper -- or both at once, even.

The track No Good Here illustrates his style with a bit of rock swagger, bouncing between twinkly alterna-pop and hair metal. While interesting, no new genre is really born, and in the long run Fite's career may prove as short-lived as those who created the music he samples. Also available is the song Fourty-five remedies.
