About Me

Some people say that music is the one true Universal language. The one thing that can unite masses that would otherwise appear divided and bring harmony to a turbulent world.
Music is to the soul as water is to the body. It cleanses you. It sustains you. And if you wash once a day then you’ll always smell of happiness.
Aldous Huxley said that after silence, the thing that comes closest to expressing the inexpressible is music. This is what my music is. It is an avalanche of expressions that holds no tangible sense within my mind. But as soon as these feelings are put into musical form, they become an outlet of my emotion. I make music for myself, but hope, that in its creation, people can connect, or lose themselves, think, jump up and dance or scream out in frustration. Whatever.
If you listen to my tunes and decide that you like them, let me know. If you think that they are shite and unoriginal then great, you have listened to something that you dont like, but at the same time my music has reached another pair of ears and evoked thoughts of some kind.
Im not in this for money. Dont get me wrong, I would love someone to approach me offering the chance to make music all day every day instead of slotting into this system that is society. But the way I see it, is you either fit in and do something for yourself, or your just another monkey in this jungle of a world.
I hope you enjoy.
