About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)Well Started PLaying guitar approximately over 3 years ago mostly doing a few covers and doing it for a laugh. Until eventually i took an interest in multiple instruments and started composing my own music. I have had many riffs and fully created songs locked away in my head or on a scrap of paper but since i have finally got some decent recording equipment, i can now actually express and show how i think. I am mostly into poilitical satire and i question what stands before my eyes until i think its taken apart. This most certainly flows into my artwork and music and gives me a passion to create. Currently i have been accepted nto bournemouth arts institute to study a degree in interactive media in which i can flex my music directing skills and take my music to another level. Im happy with what i have written, but i know i can do better. Rome Wasnt built in a day.The song that i have in the player above is called "The Oil Crusade" which is my Final Major Project at North Devon College on my Art and Design Course. It is mostly a stab at George Bush and his disgusting crusade on his fossil fuels and how many innocent have got involved. I wanted it to relate to everyone while also expressing myself. Currently i am shooting a music video for it to tie up my final major project at college and i am very excited about the shoot due to some sites i have hooked up.I may tweak some parts of the song as the days go by so maybe expect some slight tweaks to volume and instrument mix.

Right well this is me, Mike the one and only. I'm excited about the music video that should be started soon for the song "The Oil Crusade". It should involve some pretty graphic footage of uncensored ...
