For samples of his own project GHETTOTRANCE http://www.www.mp3.com/artist/anthony-mills1 comprised of original music, lyrics and Anthony's Artwork.

Mills seeks to inspire his audiences to transcend into the upper echelons of their mind and experience the colorful, consciously-inspired lyrics and instrumentation that surrounds them. Explains Mills, "This particular style of music is unique by nature, in that it requires the listener to experience, visualize and become involved with the distinct vibes it emits."
