Hi, thanks for checking out my page...
I'm a writer, musician and filmmaker/photographer looking to network with people everywhere; London is my home city but I study at the University of Bristol and have spent a lot of time in New York, so I'm always interested to find out about musical developments in those places. At the end of 2008 I moved to Moscow, a fascinating and wild metropolis full of cultural intrigue.
Jazz is definitely my favourite genre, followed in no particular order by funk, reggae, Latin, ska, dub, world, fusion, blues, electronic/chillout, hip-hop, classical, afrobeat, rock... pretty much everything (and I really mean everything, unlike a lot of people who say that). If you're interested, check out my page at last.fm to see what I've been listening to recently or click the playlist down on the left to hear for yourself.
From late 2007 to June '08 I hosted a radio show called Off The Hook, which went out live every Saturday on BURST. It featured all the above genres and I had lots of guests from the Bristol music scene coming into the studio.
The blog section here is fairly up to date with my recent published articles; a fuller portfolio is available on www.frederickbernas.blogspot.com [the system annoyingly blocks that site as a link].
If you're a recording artist or a band and would like me to review CDs/gigs, definitely get in touch; I try to be very open-minded so am always up for hearing new stuff. Feel free to add me and thanks for taking the time to read this!
P.S. For anyone interested, here's a link to my main band:
