About Me

ToolsForMySpace.comWho is Lonerider.... Well I'm firstly a musician, a producer/composer and an engineer. Based in London I started playing instruments from the moment I could walk.. the main ones now are guitar and sax but programming beats and sitting at a keyboard are just as important. I've played gigs all over London and sat in on great sessions at every major studio in town. All thru this time I've been buying studio kit, playing with it and selling it on so I could get more kit or the latest audio toys. Now after a decade of honing my skills I work in all aspects of our media existence... music/radio/tv/film/advertising etc but mainly I just want to write my beats. I'm not fixated by one style/genre of music and just let myself feel the music... if it feels right I work on it... if it doesn't I know it will some other time.I have multiple projects I hope to bring to the foreground in 2007 in the form of.. The Lonerider EP sessions - exploring broken beats, jazz and soul, Flaneur - the live & acoustic soulful downtempo tracks and finally The Weinberg Trio - an exploration of klezmer/hip-hop/tango/classical solos & modern production.I have been lucky enough to have my music broadcast all over the world.. long may it continue
