   About Colin MacPhail




Hi, Thanks for listening to my music. When I was in my teens, I was very disenchanted with the music that was doing the rounds, no one seemed to be making music that I enjoyed! So i decided to learn to play the guitar and make some myself. The only thing about that was that no one wanted to write music in the style that I wanted to. So I bought an old 4 track and a dodgy casio key board and started from there. Here I am 20 years later still doing it on my own! I still love the creation process, the first time you come up with a riff, finding that cool new synth sound and building a song round it. Well here are a few of my creations, if you enjoy them, please leave me a wee note. If you hate them, you can still leave a wee note, but just be gentle on this timid wee soul. Regards, Colin ..

Hi, great music, especially 'Proton' which evokes ELO's 'Daybreaker', which is a compliment by the way! :-)
