I am posting it here first for a while before i obtain a mechanical License for all the streaming platforms and sales avenues.   at which time it will be pulled back on here

So.... This is one of the first presentable home recordings I ever did, on a four track, playing Guitar and Bass, and also programming the drums...on a Roland Human Composer R5.
Little did I know I would  develop Enginneer and produce... This is Fast paced, breakneck speed, From a time I was goin in all directions, livin the dream in Los Angeles in the early 90's.....

Heavy Metal Hard Rock Music Instrumental Compilation

First... Im A tradfitional MUSICIAN that Physically plays or can play all the instruments recorded on these songs (exception being keys).  What you will hear is REAL guitar and bass  with Drums programmed and perfomed from EZDrummer II &III , many of the patterns are finger tapped and fine tuned.
ALL vocals Are myself harmonizing with myself ...... ALL tracked and produced by me in PRESONUS STUDIO ONE 5 /  with a Faderport 8 and UPhoria 1820 interface, Akai Key and pad controllers and FOCUSRITE and other misc Mic Pre's..      THIS ISNT ELECTRONIC, COMPUTER and MIDI sequenced GENERATED pattern based stuff that seems to be SOOOO popular these days.     Its all ART but not all who create it are Musicians (in the traditonal .... spend a lifetime to learn and 1000's and 1000's of hours of practice and study to master thier instrument MUSICIANS)I appreciate eveything that is well though out, arranged and well recorded music, sound, artistic expression and the like...... BUT i CAN REALLY DO WITHOUT The HOUSE DANCE ELECTRONICA.....edm STUFF......mind numbingly droning DJ bot sequenced crap that doesnt really meet the criteria of musical expression and composition
