Greetings all! Thanks to Bruce (Windspace) for inviting me here.
I haven't had the best attendance record on groups lately, since the Relaxed Machinery Ning had to migrate to Ello (a nice platform, but I just haven't had much time). I'll try to make some time here, though I have to be careful of the time suck factor. Time spend typing is time spent not composing and recording - for which I have precious little time as it is...
Anyway, as Bruce kindly shared, my 4th album - Souls Adrift, in Disrepair - is out of the nest now. That reduces my number of albums in progress to... six. With a seventh to begin soon. If those all turn out nicely, I'll probably think my apprenticeship done at that point.
The next two releases - both very nearly finished - are an EP of a classical cover, and an album of improvised solo guitar pieces. If all goes well, we'll see them released this year. Time will rule.
Collaborations so far with: Chris Russell (Memory Palace album and another to come, as well as Particles and Waves from Relaxed Machinery comp reBOOT); Peter James (The Rage of Reason, from reBOOT); remixes of James Johnson (Two Fractured Mirrors, from rM comp Butterfly Effects) and Northcape (Clear Moment Remixed album). Guest spot on Ruska from Ari Porki & Chris Alvarado's album Halla.
Biggest influences: Steve Roach, Robert Rich, Dirk Serries, Jeff Pearce, Robert Fripp. Some other musical heroes who should become influences soon include: Byron Metcalf, Pat Metheny, Gabriel/Genesis, Rush, Dead Can Dance.
