Intro
Hi there. I've been making music since I was a kid. But I've been taking it more seriously over the last couple of years, since I got my Yamaha Motif. I like a lot of different styles of music... I suppose I focus more on techno, and electro-funk. Everything I've created so far is synthesizer based. I think I'll be adding some real electric guitar in future projects.
My first CD is "Energy". It has a variety of styles. Techno, funk, jazz, rock. Plenty of influences here: Joe Satriani (I named one track on the album JS), Prince, Stevie Wonder, Mike Oldfield and others.
My second CD is "Lost in a New Age". That one is a solo piano CD. My influences for "Lost in a New Age" were mainly Taku Iwasaki and Yuki Kajiura, two renowned composers for anime. They both create beautiful piano pieces and I learned a lot from listening to them. I was very much influenced by the "Witch Hunter Robin" Soundtrack (Taku Iwasaki) and the ".hack Sign" soundtrack (Yuki Kajiura).
My third album is "Alphanumeric". A new age, uptempo album. Heavily influenced by 80s synthpop bands (Yazoo, Erasure, Howard Jones) as well as new age artists (Jean Michel Jarre, Vangelis). This one's only available digitally.
You can preview or purchase my music in the store above. Or you can use CDbaby:

ALSO, you should check out Prince's half an hour interview with Tavis Smiley, in the PBS website, in case u missed it.
