Here's the last track recorded for my second album, "Nocturnality." It revolves around a driving, acoustic guitar groove and is played in B-A-D-E-B-C# tuning with a capo on the second fret.

My compositional style is rather eclectic, ranging from traditional folk music to neoclassical to deterministic, and several things in between.  I use a variety of free software for creating electronic music, including SunVox, ChucK, IanniX, and Audacity.  I am always interested in learning new techniques and trying different styles.  I studied music composition with Stanley Hollingsworth, and Early Music (including lute) with Lyle Nordstrom.  I regularly perform on various acoustic instruments, including keyboards, bass and acoustic guitars, recorder, and penny whistle - though my first love is piano.

Mindbomb is a Viennese rock music project featuring Alessandro Wessely (Old Steammachine) and Claus Trophobia.

Enough self-promotion. I'm a guitarist, pianist, and producer from Philly, who studied music at the University of Virginia. Hard to peg my music to one genre; for better or worse, my sound is always changing.

All in all, thrilled to have the opportunity to create something worth listening to. Hope you enjoy!

I encourage you to leave any comments on my music, inbox me, etc. and I will always do my best to respond in kind.

With the aim of promoting more guitar based instrumentals, progressive rock styles, multi instrumentals, folk, classical, ambient and a wider mix of genre, Guitarists and their different sound and technique, enjoying their music and keeping the producers creativity alive.. here's to all the great musicians on Soundcloud that deserve more exposure and support.
Thanks for listening,

"It's about the melody. the beat. the sound and the voice. the clash of senses. dramatically usual. dreamlike bleak. marvelous beautiful. the crumbling of the dream. and the essence of passion. a thousand times believed dead. and rose again. my love, my music."
