One step forwards. Two steps back.
Another step forwards and you're back at the start.
One more step and you're as far you've ever been.
That's your fifth step, and nothing is holding you.
Now it gets interesting. . . (Step5)

Hi All,

It's mainly electronic for me, generally around the chill out, lounge & ambient styles. But it can, and will flow about the place.

I'm always on the hunt for collaboration work as I find this pushes me in to new areas and produces far more new ideas for my own sounds.
I would love some of you out there to write and perform lyrics for any of my tunes if they resonate with you, have a listen and let me know.   :)

About me:
I'm an English composer who watched his brother learn the keyboard and picked bits up. I then found myself borrowing time on his Amiga500 to write tunes in OctaMED. I learnt to play the drums for a year and then had a go at the guitar... One day it'll do more with me than just hurt my fingers! ;) I've always loved the piano and find synthesizers fascinating!

Influences include: Chicane, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Air, Rhian Sheehan, Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre, Above&Beyond, Dirty Vegas, Groove Armada, Lemon Jelly, Ulrch Schnauss, etc. etc. . . 

These days I find myself within FL Studio, it's been great for me over the past 10 years or so, but I'm definitely still just a beginner. Trying to adventure out into new sounds and styles... slowly! ;)
I love writing Ambient Chill Out and sounds with a Progressive Electro nature to them, and the percussion is important to me.
I love to collaborate, so please let me know if this could interest you.

Cheers for reading all!
