I love anyone who writes great melodic songs, with imagination, passion and honesty. Influences... too many to list, but start in the 60s and 70s vault most of the 80s start again in the 90's and 00s etc are doing ok too.

WATCH THIS VID - THE MAKING OF THE UNIVERSE IS FLAT
BIO:
Opportunity can come through the oddest of circumstances. When Chris Spring put an old mic on Ebay his hope was a few extra quid, certainly not a record deal.
Chelmsford born, Chris cut his teeth with local bands before deciding to record some solo demos in his bedroom. The results were passionate songs, with soaring vocals, expressing the intimate and honest loves, observations, and trials of the writer.
He then had to sell his mic. The highest bidder was a junior engineer at Eden Studios London (Kaiser Chiefs, The Killers, Stereophonics and KT Tunstall etc). Chris persuaded him to listen to his demos; when he heard them, the engineer was totally stunned and immediately played it to Edens owner Phillip Love.
"
What I found phenomenal was Chris's exceptional songwriting, and the uniqueness of his voice. You just don't get that quality of songwriting anymore. We arranged a meeting to discuss the way forward. Every engineer wanted to work on this project. "
The result is the album 'The universe is Flat', plus a number of A grade extra tracks.
The latest in this twisty turny tale is that it has been decided to make this album available free to download a period of time. Follow the link above.

Monkee Platez next offering is the OUT NOW 'Fulltilt EP' from Glasgow outfit Mr Hajika.
4 slabs of groove driven tech house...
Fulltilt original is a chugging, bass heavy track with a subtle musicality that develops throughout. Dr. Bergers remix is a stripped down deeper edit, with an infectious flow that maintains the essence of the original. Similarly to Dr. Berger, Alex Fiction strips back the layers to uncover an electronic soul which builds into an intelligently emotive interpretation, if slightly twisted. Completing the package is 'Nitemoves' which shares the big sound of Fulltilt, but with a more progressive, melodic vibe."
