About Me

This music is Daniel Opitz, with helpful contributions (ranging from recording, performing, advice and support) from many friends across the world. THIS is about uplifting peoples' spirits and generally helping people with the positive energy created thru and from music. One the goals I have set is to raise awareness about how uplifting positive music can be and how this can be applied. It's a flow on effect, all about creating happiness and spreading it. If my music makes you happy, then I am achieving this. I have now two demos...and one live track uploaded. May you enjoy these and if you do please feel free to share them with whomever you like. If you have seen me live and thought u'd check out my space, thankyou; if you haven't seen me live yet, i am looking forward to entertaining you :). If you stumbled upon this page, cheers to fate for bringing u here :) Make sure to bookmark it :P Thanks for visiting me, i'll make sure I give you the heads up as I progress. If you would like to contact me regarding any of these thoughts, or your own interpretation on the subject of positive energy/music and the application of, your e-mails are most welcome at -
