Influences: Main influences came from my father who insisted that the classical composers made real music. He was right, many top modern musicians have a classical upbringing and education. ----------------- First influences also came from Beethoven, Bach, Chopin. ----------------- Then grew up with The Beatles, Rolling Stones. Later came names like Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Savoy Brown. ------------------ In the late seventies, discovered Jean Michel Jarre, whos music fascinated me in a big way, especially the idea of using modern technology as musical instruments. -------------------Other names to drop? ok: Kraftwerk, Propellerheads, Robert Miles, Daft Punk, Vanessa Mae, and whoever wrote the theme music for "Doctor Who" way back in the sixties!! ***************************************
Sounds Like: Thats a good one. I´ll leave that up to the listeners, but I suppose there´s a mix of classical with Jarre but with - I hope- a sound of my own.
