About Me

British singer-songwriter / piano/ keyboards. The music is created by programming a Korg sequencer and then adding the vocals in studios. Done "by ear"...notation and I never clicked! Tracks written vary from up tempo electro to a more ambient vibe, it depends on my mood. Collaborations with other artists are the "Lost at Sea" EP with Project359 and remixes of "Fact Not Fantasy" by French producers Didier Vanelli & Julien L. (please see the blog entries). I'm now working on new projects with Didier & Julien. There's also a new collaboration under way with Norwegian electro/pop duo "Formative" !! I'll update on this shortly. Thanks for visiting! :-)
