About Me

Hi, I'm Flying Paul!
I started with bugel at a young age, and played in an orchestra. Soon I found out that creating your own sund is way more fun to me, so I bought a electric guitar(the cheapest I could find).
I started practising and soon I played in several bands.
I played in a religious singing duo, named Brick. I also played in a gospel choir.
I have had some projects, like doing a guitarpart in classical music with an orchestra. We did an arrangement of final fantasy and it rocked! More of that and the creator of the music is found on one of my friends list, Niels(my dear brother in law).
On this moment I'm working with my dear brother with some new arrangements for games.
In 2000 we formed the band Silent Denial. We split up in 2007 because it just didn't work anymore. I also played in a hiphopgroup named Reconda, but it didn't last very long because of differeces.
Now I play in the popband named Wowfactor, see my link above. Here's were I do rythm and lead-guitar. It's got influences of jazz, funk, hip-hop, rock, etcetera.
Finally, I'm a freelancer, and make also backingtracks for vocalling groups and guitarists. For more of that you can ask me personally!

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 10/9/2006
Band Website: wowfactor.nl
Band Members: Flying Paul on guitar
Influences: Dream Theater, Joe Satriani, Michael Schenker, John Petrucci, Lenny Kravitz, Tom Morello etc
Sounds Like: Angus young mixt up with Joe Satriani. I think most of my playing style looks like Satriani with nice legato runnings and the nicest scales you've ever heard. When it comes to rythm I try to make the sound the way that it's really making the music stronger. Sometimes it's hard riffs, sometimes some clean carpets of notes, and sometimes wide open high chords, like U2's edgeBUT: I also try to keep the sound as simple as possible, just a Gibson flying v running through a Fender Bassman, and an overdrive-unit.
Record Label: unsigned
Type of Label: Indie
