Other people that influence me are Captain tin rib with his ribizer sound,,,,,,Tim Samsara as the music he plays is just so tribal, escape from Samsara I love you. I have always liked Dave the Drummers style of techno. The outfit cern Jim and dom inspire me no end----:
Also I want to mention the legendary Cor/samsara-Pendragon Events; this is in my memory etched and will never die. On a Welsh mountain top with amazing sounds- Paul/ tim Mark and Kate Pendragon much respect to you! Lastly for now I have to mention my dear friend Miles Harris, one of earths genius computer engineers, Miles man if it was not for you, I would never of gone near a god dammed computer I thought they was for offices and MI6 only.:
Until a music world opened up & gave me the chance to play with my synthesizers.:

For electronic music - Roland Corporation - Japan has to be the tech that has taken me to where I am now.:
:
The term LFO procedure is what keeps my faith in this technology, because I just don’t know when perfect sounds will collide in harmony. I’m always looking forward to this and to this day it amazes me to a degree of feeling animate technology at work.:
