Will change with the next project!!!
Geigertek was created in the late Summer of 2006, a collaboration between German programmer/producer Conrad Geiger and musician/programmer, Neil Fellowes, and is a studio project dedicated to the creation of electronic and computer generated music, using synthesizers, computers, sound processors and production techniques.
The first Geigertek album is to be released in 2008 through the AD Music label and is called "The Garden".
Conrad Geiger left the ranks of Geigertek in the Autumn of 2007, returning to his native Germany, entrusting the future of the Geigertek project to Neil Fellowes who will continue to move the music forward.
The music of Geigertek is written, recorded and produced using a contemporary digital virtual studio, located in the East Anglian city of Norwich in the United Kingdom.
Thanks for the magnificent comments about the Yazoo tracks. I'm doing a better job of the vocals as I get a little more confident each time I do them.
The hard work makes it all worth while when you get such fantastic support and comments from some really nice people like your self here on the myspace scene.
I have started doing the music to another Yazoo track "Only You" which may see the light of day so watch out for that.
Saying Hi Neil, as I noticed you were on line. Vocals for "AGGRESSOR" has been done (thanks for the encouragement). Should be up on the player soon. AS always I like visiting your page and just let your player do it's thing. Brilliant sounds!
Hi Neil. I have just heard your new track "passing". I am totally in awe of anyone who can create a piece of music that can evoke the mood that it was meant to when the piece was written. I read your blog when you were describing what emotion you were trying to convey when creating this. Believe me Neil, you have truely succeeded. This is a stunning piece of work. The middle section conveying the passing itself is amazing, beautifull and coming through the other side makes you feel you have nothing to fear. Absolutely amazing.... WOW. I've sat through it five times so far while writing this comment. I opened another tab on my browser just so I could listen to this while I write. And this isn't even finished yet ? I can't wait for the album Neil. It is going to be something very special.
Hi Neil! i tried to get a message to you yesterday but my pc was acting up! Just to say thanks first of all! And lo and behold i really love your new tune sir! It's haunting and powerful and reminds me very much of Vangelis in his 'Spiral' period! Top notch stuff sir! :)
