Producer of electronic, ambient and experimental music from the south coast of England.

Bio:

Immersed in the synth-pop and electronica of the Eighties growing up in southern England, State Azure (b. 1972) found early inspiration in Jean-Michel Jarre, Tangerine Dream, and Vangelis. Deconstructing their tracks ignited his passion, leading him to develop a foundational understanding of electronic music theory, composition and production entirely by ear and experimentation.

He honed his skills as a keyboardist and producer within live bands before venturing into solo ambient/experimental territory. This self-taught journey fostered a deeply improvisational and emotional approach, free from the confines of formal training.

State Azure's sonic world is further shaped by influences beyond music, drawing heavily from science fiction, cosmology, physics, and technology.

Seizing the opportunity presented by the burgeoning online music scene, he launched the State Azure project to connect directly with listeners, debuting with the album 'Outlines' in December 2011.

Although classically trained, my heart and passion has always been for electronic music and those deep evolving soundscapes.

How does my music differ from everyone else I hear you ask? My compositions are free flowing with catchy melodies. Each one its own adventure into the cosmos and beyond.

Susan Friend | Pop, Rock, Country | Jazz, Blues, Broadway  | Film, TV, Advertising

Susan Friend is a rising songwriter whose passion, talent and eclectically vast catalog often has her described as ‘Diane Warren meets Irving Berlin meets Nashville’ and whose voice has been praised for its equally inspired diversity.

An esteemed member of the NYC, Nashville and L.A. songwriting communities, Susan has caught the attention of several major publishing companies, radio stations and film/tv/ad agencies, and has been personally championed by several of them - including senior execs at Sony/ATV, ClearChannel and SiriusXM - as well as KISS and Lady Gaga's business managers, David Letterman's personal assistant, and several major artists and producers who've gravitated toward her songs and her spirit.  She’s also won several awards, including a Hollywood songwriting contest judged by Mick Fleetwood and Marla Maples as well as a Nashville competition where she was flown in to perform at its famed Tootsie's Birthday Bash and open for Montgomery Gentry and Kid Rock.

Susan is currently pitching to several major artists, is writing and producing for fim, tv and advertising, and has been asked to work for up-and-coming acts across the globe including several from The Voice and Amerca's Got Talent.  She's also a natural in the studio where she often sings on her own tracks, but her primary goal remains the same:  Write great songs for great artists, and reach as many ears - and hearts - as possible. ♥

Shigeo Watanabe(S.H.G.) is a boundary-pushing electronic music artist who delves into the essence of humanity, weaving intricate sonic narratives that traverse the depths of our collective past and the limitless possibilities of the future.

Blending experimental textures, pulsating rhythms, and ethereal melodies, S.H.G.’s music transforms time into a palpable experience. Drawing inspiration from history, technology, and philosophy, their creations resonate with a timeless question: where have we been, and where are we going?

S.H.G.’s work invites listeners to embark on an auditory journey—a voyage across civilizations, dreams, and the uncharted realms of the human spirit. Dive in and experience a world where sound transcends time.
