Childs’ musical career as a house music producer and DJ started in Houston where he became a fan of a house radio show and began attending weekly house music events. Childs founded the record label Uni.form Recordings in 2002,[1] which allowed him to collaborate with like-minded musicians, producers and DJs.
Childs' has performed his self-produced music on multiple international tours.

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]

Childs' project as of October 2014, MNYNMS, is fronted by Jessica Wahlquist, with a much slower essence that is synth driven.
