About Me

ANDREA BOTTINO

Multi instrumentalist (guitar/bass/keys), composer, remixer, live & session musician.
I'm involved in many activities & projects and I get great enjoyment from my work: it pays the bills (sometimes) and buys me beer !

I see the beauty of this world in everything: life is a wonderful journey and I never stop learning, improving and evolving. I'm into meditation, enlightenment, awareness...so I try to get the best from disciplines like like Yoga, Zen, Tao, Tantra, but I'm not attached to anything and I'm free from everything (rules, beliefs, religions, dogmas, gods, ideologies).
I love 80's & 90's hard rock-glam metal bands and I really miss those glamorous days: big hair, crazy colored guitars, cowboy boots, "party all night-sleep all day" life attitude...sometimes I wonder where have all the good times gone.
Anyway I'm still searching 4 my soulmate 2 share a great life of love & sex & rock 'n' roll with (but I'm not here 4 dating, I use Facebook for that ! lol). Even if I act a bit eccentric-extravagant at times, I'm also into romance: long kisses, feeling special, communication & all the good old style stuff (opening doors 4 U, flowers & dinners, ooh yea).
If u want 2 know more just ask n maybe I'll tell ya, don't worry I won't bite (well not hard anyway..).
That's enough 4 now cus I need a p.
P.s.
I'm into rock-metal music but a few years ago I also started getting into the electronic world (dance, house, tecno, trance). Here on myspace you can find a few songs from my upcoming Cd, a concept album of instrumental dance music with piano melodies.
If you like the song "Heavy Metal Chopin" (etude op 10 No 1 interpreted by Andrea Bottino on piano and electric guitar) or "guitar & zen" n want more rock-metal tunes (free mp3 downloads) just take a look @ my website n follow d link on "music" section.
Thanks for your time
