About Me

I started in the music world from a very early age. I grew up in a very musical family and was soon singing with them in songs which were arranged by my mother into four part harmonies. As the interest in music was so diverse in my household, I grew up listening to many different genres. My mother was a music teacher and along with my father, sang in and produced many musicals and some television programmes. My brother is an extremely talented and all-rounded musician with whom I have spent years writing and composing.I taught myself a bit of piano as I was growing up and shortly after that began to compose instrumental pieces. In my juniour and seniour school days, I took part in many plays and many musicals, playing lead roles in a few. Like most teenagers (I am sure) who love music - I followed the charts with keen ears.When I moved from South Africa to England, I ran karaoke’s and did live singing and DJ gigs all over Greater London. I was also the vocalist in two rock bands.I consider myself to be a visionary artist - I see pictures and I try to paint them with my music. My partiality towards eastern musics is apparent in many of my 'paintings'.For the vocal pieces - I have lent inspiration I can imagine from anything and everything I have ever heard, consciously or subconsciously, and my keen and avid interest and appreciation in Electronica, R&B, Reggae, Hip-hop and Rock have steered me through the styles that these pieces produced.I adore music. It is to me of the same importance as my blood and my breath, and I dedicate everything I have ever composed to everyone and everything I have ever loved....I have two albums (one vocal and one instrumental) up for release on the internet soon and a cover version song by another artist sampling pieces from my track WORLD PEACE in production with video...

Influences:I have always been rather keen on Indian and Egyptian music. I have aimed to reflect these influences in some of my music. Although my roots have been firmly planted in R&B and funk, I have been more and more influenced by the new electronic wave. I feel that there is a massive platform for eclecticism in the world of Electronica - not only for meshing together the ethnic atmospheres of eastern folk musics, but also as a meeting place for different world-genres. For example, I love the sound of electronically fashioned reggae, as well as 80’s retro synth-pop influences (Michael Cretu/Sandra and Erasure in particular). When I listen to what is happening with synth-pop now, I become more and more convinced that they were not only solid foundations for the genre, but they were ahead of their time. I am also very impressed with the amount of Electronica that is being employed in new-wave rock.I was weened on Vangelis and this would offer some explanation as to why I revere the power of the synthesiser. That was definitely the first impulse, but I would say that my greatest influence to date is the stunning electronic revolution (aided largely by the phenomenon-esque Marius De Vries) that has richly moved Madonna’s music. I am thoroughly elated by the lush atmospheres and sound effects that have emerged from albums such as "Ray Of Light", "Music", "American Life", and "Confessions On A Dancefloor". I have in no way intended any of my vibes to infringe on any of those, yet they have been an immeasurable inspiration to me. Along with these, I have been very inspired by Alabama 3, and in particular, their "Power In The Blood" album.Having said all that, I love pretty much all music, but the things that influence me the most are things that sound unique and allow maximum self expression. Folk music is a winner for this, and I consider Electronica to be the folk expression of the future. My musical mantra is: "Respect the past, but keep up with the times". I hope you enjoy these tunes as much as I enjoyed making them. Peace, love and light to everyone.ADDITIONAL INTERESTS: Massive Attack; Portishead; Leftfield; Mike Oldfield; Jean Michel Jarre; Loreena McKennit; Danny Wilson; Enya; Tori Amos; Kate Bush; Mariah Carey; Sinead O Connor; Andreas Wolenweider; Enigma; Peter Gabriel; China Crisis; Depeche Mode; Prince; Pink Floyd; Eric Serra; Stevie Nicks; Fleetwood Mac; Siouxsie And The Banshees; The Mission; Pet Shop Boys; and the list continues....
