Hendrix, Medeski Martin & Wood, Spoon, Nuno Bettencourt, Queens of the stone age, Amon Tobin, Roots manuva, Nizlopi, DJ Vadim...
Time, money and harmony also play a significant role...
i love writing and playing with different musicians. I've realised that attitude and personality in people are the things that really show in their music. Miles said that 'music is 20% the note being played and 80% the motherfucker playing it' - i like that.
I'm playing bass for The Sunday Dogs and Lighterthief currently, both really inventive bands (have a look through top friends if you want a listen). My personal thing is a band called Perverts of the Zodiac - just three of us (Pete Rowe, Jay Thurley) - loads of fun and noise and music and tomfoolery. good stuff.
the tunes here are random bits of old sessions and bands for now, hope you like

THE DACOITS play the Vic with THE DIRTY FEEL & HOTEL 75 on the 5th NOVEMBER To celebrate the arrival of their DEBUT ALBUM.
It’s been a long gestation period and a painful birth but we are now delighted to announce the arrival of our first album. Weighing in at 40 minutes it is an temperamental creation of flawed beauty, prone to violent, noisy outbursts yet irresistibly charming and loveable. Come along to wet the baby’s head, hear some excellent live music and grab a copy of the album.
Oh heavens no, the great escape is a wonderful film. I was disappointed because I found out the truth about the issue I was dealing with that I told you about when we were painting. Now I feel like I need to paint again. I've got a black can of spray paint, want to go around anti-establishment tagging police cars?
