Since I'm a self-promoting whore and I just updated my website and MySpace, I figured I'd post in as many places as I can think of. 'Round here are generally friendly folk, so I thought this would be a nice place.

You can check out songs at the MySpace and find more info on the website. Kind words are always appreciated, but I'm not trying to fish for compliments. I don't really know what peoples' musical tastes around here are like (although I think I've read Journey on here once or twice), but I think it's pretty accessible no matter what you're into.

I used to be very active on this forum. I’m not really anymore. Sometimes, people still want to get in touch with me about something, and that is great! If that describes you, please email me at [my username]ATgmailDOTcom.

Hi everybody. You’re all awesome. Keep up the good work.

Reverend, you're a musician? Why didn't you say.
(I'm unable to access audio and video files at work, but I'll check it out when I get home). I play guitar and I'm right now trying to record a demo, but with the so-called real world of work and all that crap it's kinda tough.

Yes, I know the trials and tribulations of recording demos. Of course, it helps that I don't have a job and I'm a slacker

But yeah, I am a musician. I sing and play guitar, and Mabel is my robot, which is my backing section. There's pictures and stuff on both links. For the backing tracks themselves, I program the drums and synth and bass and whatnot. So yeah, it's basically all me, although I have had guests on tracks.

Cool. I went through a phase of trying to program drums and stuff because none of my friends were dedicated enough, but I just found it to be too rigid for what I was trying to do - it lost the spontaneity, and I was after a raw, real sound, which I know is possible, but I'm a guitarist/singer, not a computer programmer, so I gave up. Now I just hassle my drummer constantly and squeeze a jamming/recording session out of him whenever I possibly can. My friend who is a shit hot lead guitarist has recently moved back to London though, so things are looking up.

BTW, I'll buy one of your CDs to support a fellow musicman - which one do you think best shows what you're all about?

Thanks in advance for the support! The EP definitely shows everything best. Whenever the hell I finish my album, that'll show it a bit better, but the EP does the job just fine. Since it's Version 2.0 as well, it also sounds better than everything else because it's properly mastered and whatnot.

The electronic drums and synths and stuff work very well for the stuff I'm doing, so everything worked out well in the end. I have a blast doing what I do.
