Hi and welcome to my SoundCloud page. Apologies I have not been on Soundcloud for many a year.  Most of the recordings on here I made whilst struggling with depression and loss so I have found it hard to revisit the sounds that came out that time. Now some 15 years on I am more relaxed about it and see it as one of life’s journeys. I still have a room of synths which I hope to re-engage with so maybe some more sounds will be forthcoming. Let’s see!

Here's a bit about me, the gear I use and some other stuff:-
-
I have been messing around with synths since about 1975; making noises and building circuits. Back in the day I was much impressed by the sounds of synths used by artists such as Yes, Camel, Greenslade, Tangerine Dream, Rush, Patrick Moraz, Rick Wakeman, Bill Nelson and Tomita.
-
I love analogue synths - I have an ARP Odyssey, a Roland SH09, a Roland SH5, two Sequential Circuits Pro Ones (both with Synthwood kits) and my absolute favourites are my two modular synths (Roland 100m and a Eurorack modular system) and my Moog Voyager. I also use a Novation K Station.
-
My keyboard skills are rudimentary, my favoured control method is a Doepfer R2M ribbon controller, a MFB SEQ-02 sequencer and a pair of joysticks.
-
I like most of the tracks I have posted but they are early works and are unsophisticated arrangements and basic recordings. I dislike Not Quite Right in Two as the timing is terrible but some have liked so it’s still on here. 
-
My music inpirations are Yes, Tool, A Perfect Circle, The Knife, Puscifer, FischerSpooner, Portishead, Nine Inch Nails, Dream Theater, Soundgarden, King Crimson, Bill Nelson plus a load of other rock, blues, electronic, prog, classical stuff etc. A little varied!?
-
I am now retired from my day job and from my side-hustle Synovatron (modular synth products). You would think I had plenty of time to play but it’s not the case as priorities change.

2007 was the year I decided that guitar/piano was something that I really wanted to learn. Since then i've been trying to compose stuff aswell.

I use FLStudio and my digital piano when creating music.

I've finally gotten to the point where I feel I actually can create something, 2012 seemed to be the year :)
