Music:
Member Since: 9/29/2004
Band Website: FordRecords.com
Band Members: Me, and the voices inside my head
Influences:
What influences my music is much more than the borrowed ideas of various musical themes already written. My music is inspired by the direction of my life and by the people and experiences influencing that. My music tends to be commercial, but without commercialism fewer people will get to experience what I have created, and thus less of an influence my contributions will have on the ever growing mind of the universe itself.
Some artists that I enjoy listening to and greatly admire are:
Beatles, John Lennon, Verdi, Cure, Ray Lynch, Beethoven, Samuel Barber, Duran Duran, Peter Gabriel, Depeche Mode, Pink Floyd, U2, Faithless, Keane, Barry Gibb, Nile Rogers, Bowie, Pet Shop Boys, A. Badalamenti, Bob Denver, Elton John, Dead Can Dance, Lisa Gerrard, Matt Darey, A. Van Burren, A. Van Helden, Tiesto, Ferry Corsten
"A good songwriter borrows ideas a great songwriter steals them." -J. Lennon
