[2] He organized "some of the biggest raves in San Antonio, which were legendary" according to an October 2006 article on Underground House. [3]

In 2009, another incarnation of Childs’ musical creativity, POSR, an electro-punk band from Austin, signed a record deal with Houston’s Tierra Studios in May 2009. The band includes Childs as its producer, songwriter and singer; duel bassists Illson and Chris Casual, and DJ Adam Warped. [4]
