hmmm... Since my influences are quite varied and I like to experiment with different styles this is quite hard to say but I've been told at various times that I remind people of Vangelis, Lemonjelly, Chemical Brothers, Leftfield, Daft Punk, Zero 7, Telepopmusik, Fluke, Mr Scruff, The Orb, Groove Armada
I've worked in music for over 17 years as an engineer, producer, composer, teaboy, editor, etc. I've had work used by the BBC, Birmingham Repertory Theatre, a couple of small independent film companies, a national charity and various other bits and bobs over the years.
I also released an album under Guardians of Dalliance for Moving Shadow Records (available on iTunes) and appeared on several compilation albums either as an artist or as a producer.
I'm hoping to work on more films, both short and full length, and I have just released an album of my recent travel inspired tunes. The next album is under way and I'm hoping to have that finished by the end of the year...
I'm interested in working with other people so get in touch if you like my stuff!
Below are links to my pages on other sites. MusicFreedom has some great bands on and Soundclick gives you the chance to hear tunes in full.
Hi Mike how are you and what's new on your side? you once commented on my track Art Of The Matter (sampling 10cc). If you get a minute please check out new song What Do You Want From Me.
