Some muso friends of mine had enquired when  was I gonna do a "guitar track" or at least one with the main instrument as the guitar, so here's one I prepared earlier!

I had the riff kicking around for some time and decided to build  the track  around the riff, kind of 21st century rock and roll!

Hence the title "DNA". The guitar riff is the DNA of the track, its that simple, I hope you enjoy!

Inspired by dialogue from the movie Jackie Brown (I think the best Tarantino movie made to date) I started to play guitar. The main riff or recurring theme if you listen to opera fell out of my guitar, from there I started to build the track.

If you listen to the non Si-fi dialogue you will understand why the song is called Guilty, My thanks to: Bob, Bill and Sam for the use of their voices. The guitar is not rock and roll or blues, but the chord progression is! 

Add to this a very dance/trance drum and you get a very different animal, I hope you enjoy!

That Momentary Leap Into Madness

'Amicus' is an English ghost story dedicated to 1970's British horror and the haunted arts and crafts revival of the time, with a particular nod to The Wicker Man (1973), Hammer and films/movies such as The Devil Rides Out (1968) and the film company Amicus Productions (1962–1977).

I play all instruments on this one apart from Alison Allison's sepuchral, Wicker Man-ish recorder. Great fun to record, a fiend to mix – appropriately enough :)

A reworked version of "La Cathédrale engloutie" composed by Claude Debussy, and performed by Ivan Ilic:

The track was run through ValhallaSupermassive, and then I reversed the results.

Widdling In E Mostly

You Lied And You Lied

Well, along time ago in different galaxy and frankly a different life, I played in bands and recorded music, the process was different then. Music had to be played and recored in nuclear fallout shelters with no natural light even home demo's were a complex procedure.

Now with a certain computer and related software(s),  ideas and playing isnt restricted anymore and thats the point of this, new original tunes in a variety of styles are mixed with my odd taste in tv or film soundtracks, with a twist of course, shaken and not stired. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoy making them and if your moved enough do send me an email and keep droping by new music will be uploaded as and when so do keep an eye out.
