Influences:

Dizzi was raised on good old British heavy metal from the likes of Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin. In fact, the first album in Dizzi’s record collection was Led Zeppelin III, bought for his birthday when he was 11.

Since his teenage years Dizzi has thrashed the guitar to an unreasonable degree. However, Dizzi sites one person as genuinely changing his outlook on guitar practice. "I borrowed a Hot Licks instructional cassette tape from a friend and it truly changed my life. The tape was by Steve Morse and he opened my eyes to the world of chromatic fingering exercises and religious guitar practice. I was never the same again."

Since then Dizzi’s influences have broadened considerably and include the likes of Jazz master Miles Davis and king of slide blues Elmore James.

From the contemporary music scene Dizzi gets his jollies from the likes of Mastodon, Gojira, Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson (to name but a few).

But Dizzi is quick to recognise that it is the people closest to you that have the greatest influence. For many years Dizzi has worked with fellow MySpacer Doktor Fell to produce music in genres from dark Gothic progressive rock to lighter, largely acoustic work. Drop by Doktor Fell’s profile for a sample of his expansive techno-glory.
