Hi there, as you see I'm interested in poetry and music. In general I'm interested in sound itself and would describe myself as a sound-comber. I like the way the sounds of words work as well as their overall meaning and to this end I see poetry in all aspects of the aural world, such as the bird wing beating, the sound of broken glass synthesised, the musical beat of a modern track, to name but a few things, and I like the general feeling these sounds impart to a listener.

Who doesn't want to move to a great rhythm, or melt into the sound-motion of an orchestral piece that lulls like the ocean, or to quietly relect on some well chosen poetic words? I happen to think that we all have a need to infuse ourselves with the rhythms of life, however they occur. I hope you find a track to enjoy or download. I work with a number of DAWS and play some elements on keyboard, incorporate loops and synthesise sounds too. I also record my own sounds with a portable recorder and of course I write my own poetry perform and record it. Thanks for reading and my sincere best wishes to you. Neil.............p.s. you might like to visit my blog too at www.thepoetinthecar.wordpress.com You will be most welcome.
