About Me

NOTE: This page looks much better in Firefox than it does in Internet Explorer . If you're viewing this in Internet Explorer, I apologise, but I don't have the time, patience, nor knowledge of how to amend this atrocity.
Will, and his compositions that he's created, perfomed by computers, because he's just not talented enough to play the instruments himself. If he could, he would. And as the compositions are technically a musical creation from his mind, he decided that, hey, he might as well let a computer play his compositions and then let people listen to that. At least a computer won't hit any wrong notes. Any "wrong" notes you do hear being made by the computer are delibrate. Obviously.
He's uploaded a couple of albums of his works for free download, which you can find over to the left somewhere. They have been kindly uploaded and re-released by Mine, All Mine! Records , who are now also helping to spread the word of Tovarisch! for free. This is great because William doesn't know how to go about doing this stuff by himself. He recommends you check out the record label because there's some more pretty sweet music available there, and all for free.
All this music composition is just a hobby of his and he just hopes that someone other than himself enjoys the music he creates. That's why any music he writes of his own accord is free for anybody who thinks they might enjoy it to download, and always will be.
He also seems to like talking about himself in the third person. He never realised that before today.
Project: Bolshevik
If you have arrived at this website as a result of finding a paper-sleeved disc of my music, you've probably just landed on the receiving end of Project: Bolshevik. If you do have one of those CDs, or just curious as to what the hell Project: Bolshevik is, or maybe you even want to help out with the project because you're bored and fancy doing something a little bit different, go and check out the blog entry appropriately titled Project: Bolshevik .
