InfluencesHalf of my influences probably remain only in my subconscience and linger there to come out in my music, but I'll attemp to list those that I think have influenced me the most. I'm a strong believer that no matter how cool a riff you think you came up with, most likely there was something that lead you down the path- either a blatant influence, or a distant memory locked away that comes out through ones music unprovoked, in a twisted derivation that can be claimed as one's own. Some of my influences are very appearant when one listens to my music, while others are more buried in the mix :-)....... Pink Floyd, Jimmy Page, Brian Eno, King Crimson, Joe Satriani, Yngwie Malmsteen, Material, George Lynch, Metallica, Al DiMiola, Eddie Van Halen, Yes, Asia, Queensryche, Mr. Bungle, John Zorn, Naked City, Harold Budd, Eno/Wobble, Moebius, Daniel Lanois, Robert Fripp, Jon Hassell, California Guitar Trio, Led Zeppelin, Joe Meyers, Al Dimiola, Miles Davis, Steve Morse, Tool, Bele Fleck, Yes, Queen, Rush, Aerosmith, Ozzy, Steve Vai
Sounds LikeI have a hard time actually describing what/who my music sounds like but here's a start (if you have anything to add to this please let me know!): instrumental Led Zeppelin, Dave Matthews, California Guitar Trio...? what else...I'll get back to this :-)
