Shortly after arriving on the L.A. music scene he joined forces with
guitarist Paul Gilbert (Mr. Big), bassist Juan Alderete (The Mars Volta), drummer Scott Travis (Judas Priest),
and vocalist Jeff Martin to form the prog. rock band "Racer X". Within 3 months they became a top draw on
the west coast club scene selling out 1000+ venues on a regular basis. In Dec. of 1985 he signed to
Shrapnel records and recorded the first of three albums with Racer X "Second Heat". Quickly gaining world
wide exposure through featured articles in Guitar World, Guitar Player, Kerrang, Burn, and Young Guitar as
well as ad campaign's with Ibanez Guitars.



After a two year nonstop blitz of the club scene and two live albums "Extreme vol.1, and Extreme vol.2"
Racer X disbanded in 1988. By 1990 he signed to the newly formed Hollywood records with the band "The
Scream" featuring members Juan Alderete, Walt Woodward (Shark Island), and John Corabi (Motley Crue,
Ratt). In 1991 their first release "Let It Scream" produced by Eddie Kramer landed them on a year long tour
of the U.S and England, as well as three videos on MTV. As their fan base was increasing and record sales
were on the rise John Corabi left the band to join the newly revamped arena rockers Motley Crue, and was
replaced by vocalist Billy Fogarty.
1992 brought The Screams second studio album "Taking It To The Next Level" produced by Mario
Caldato Jr., and Richard Wolf. Due to the rapidly changing music scene the album was never released and
the band disbanded. By 1993 members Bruce Bouillet, Juan Alderete, Billy Fogarty, regrouped enlisting
drummer Abe Laborel Jr. (Paul McCartney, Sting) to form the short lived band DC-10, recording the self
produced album "co-burn".
In 1996 Bouillet left DC-10 and live performing to build the first of 4 recording studios, and began
producing, mixing, and engineering full time. By 2001 he had worked on 75 plus albums as well as
producing, engineering, and mixing on notable recordings Buck Cherry- Gold U.S., WWE Vol.5 - Gold U.S.,
Paul Gilbert-Gold Japan, Racer X-Gold Japan. During that time he also managed to find the time to join,
write, and record the studio side project "Big Sir" featuring members Juan Alderete, Lisa Pappanual, and
Tim C. (Rage Against The Machine).
2001 Bouillet formed the band "Epidemic" featuring members Tim Ganard, Jimmy McDaniels, and Boris
Bouma, signed to Elektra Records. Their self titled debut produced by Rick Parasher landed them on the
opening slot for the U.S. tour with Nickle Back, and Jerry Cantrell, as well as multiple festivals along side
the bands Clutch, Hatebreed, P.O.D., Rob Zombie, Seven Dust, ect The first single "Walk Away" gained
them a spot on the video game Madden 2003 soundtrack as well as solid rotation on MTV2. After a two
year run Epidemic disbanded in 2003.
After reopening his studio Van Nuys Ca he produced, recorded, and mixed the 2005 "best rock
performance" GRAMMY winner "Whiplash" with the band Motorhead. Also a short stint in nashville
gave him the opportunity to record and mix an album with Richard Leigh (writer of 7 no. 1 singles).
2006 he moved his studio to North Hollywood Ca. and teamed up with the newly formed production
team/band "The Bottom Dwellerz" featuring Donte Orpilla, D Loc Walker, and his current production
partner Dave Foreman. The same year they wrote and recorded their debut album "Cracks Of The
Concrete" featuring guest appearances by George Clinton, And Bizzy Bones.
