 have been playing various instruments since I was about 15. I started on Harmonica, because it looked easy and it was cheap. I didn't get on that well with it though. I had always enjoyed the Piano but where I was living it was not possible for the familly to have one frustratingly. We tried to get my Grandmas old piano, but sadly we lived in an upstairs flat and could not get it in. I made do with something called a reed organ, which was a bit like a harmonium with an electric blower. I did learn some basic things on it though. I also had a guitar which I made serious efforts with too. One instrument I had always really liked was the Violin and I started playing that too. It was very difficult to start with and I gave up for a year or so, but for some reason I thought I would have another go at it and started again. 

Fast forward a few years and I had been messing about with second hand tape machines and making recordings by bouncing sound from one tape recorder to another. I had a fairly stable job and at that point the Mk1 Teac Portastudio first appeared. Well I had to have one. By this time I had started to build up an interesting collection of Instruments keyboards guitars and so forth. I had rarely played live though. I was a bit of a techie and when I discovered you could create something called an mp3 file and put it on your website, there was no holding me back. I have a lot of music on the web. Everything from completed tracks to demos. The material spans roughly from about 1995 till the present.It covers a lot of musical genres as I have always been diverse in my musical tastes. I am still exploring musically and trying to learn something new along the way. Time passed and having assumed that I would not be doing anything much live ever, in 2004 I was invited to join a band. I have carried on with my personal musical outpourings till now, but have also played around 2500 odd gigs as well. That's something I never thought would happen. Its funny how life takes you in different directions than you expect.

If you enjoy the music I play and want to encourage and support me then just give it play, Thanks for reading this far. 

Love to you all xxx

Is there anybody out there fancy a jam? I’ve really been enjoying rearranging covers of classics but feeling stuck in a rut - so if you have a riff but never know where to take it - chord sequence you always strum but never use -bass - melody lyrics -even a whole song you wanna hear in a different style -DM me ☺️💜😈-nothing can become something with a little energy exchange ....💜🤘🏻💜

Ice Station Penguin was the name of my band in Bristol back in the 1990s but now is an umbrella term to refer to some of my music projects. 

I have three collections of people

•	Songwriting / Playing just for fun
People who will along to practice and are happy to play the music that I have written or arranged to help me work out what works or doesn’t work and update my scores accordingly.

Songwriting 
Aim: Complete a new song every three months

•	Recording music
People who will play the music that I have written or arranged to be recorded. Some people have been to the Songwriting / Playing just for fun sessions and have played the music that has been worked on in those sessions. Others have worked with me separately using my scores and/or audio guide tracks that I have produced. The latter set of people have only met me the recording engineer and none of the other people on the recordings.

Recording music
Aim: Produce a quality recording of 6 songs per year.

•	Playing live
People who will play the music that I have written or arranged to an audience. I envisage two sets of people. The first that would prefer a few rehearsals together before performing and second that would rather work with me separately or on their own, using my scores and/or audio guide tracks that I have produced with one short run through before the performance.

Playing live
Aim: Perform three times a year

Rebel without a shoe.  Last couple of years - played/recorded with Alternative TV & Vic Godard & Subway Sect -  Anna Lucas * B J Cole - Jim shepherd, Mc Cookerybook & Rotifer....Daliances with DJ's & Online Sessions.

I write & co-write songs and self-produce demos. songs here are self-produced unless otherwise noted in the song notes. 
I grew up playing piano and picked up electric guitar in my teens. I've played guitar and sung in metal, pop, and rock bands, and enjoy writing and recording in Logic and messing around with a bunch of instruments. Thanks for taking the time to listen :)

Initially inspired by the early pioneering albums Pheadre and Rubycon by Tangerine Dream (which his father played extensively in his formative years), Whilom has collected influences into his sonic armoury that reflects 50 years of listening across genres. 

Building on a basis of lo-fi electronic and ambient of all sorts, elements of soundtrack,  experimental, contemporary classical and post-rock find themselves woven into melodies and textures.

Autobiographical and fundamentally human touches are bought to the fore with samples of family and friends, sourced from old tapes made by much missed grandparents. Sometimes described as eerie or melancholic,  and at times slightly grubby or broken – Whilom’s music ruminates on common themes on the cycle of life, getting old and all that – whilst adding a soundtrack to the movie of the listeners own life.
