It's only me... G. I am working on different projects whereas one is called GLIM. It is on my top friends list if you want to listen. There you will find me working with the FANTASTIC Mille. Feel free to check it out. We will get more songs onto there, promise.
Then I am working with the fantastic(!!) Bia and her poems. The project is called Music & Poetry but that is subject to possible change.
So there are different other projects being worked on right now. So you know, I am DEFINITELY open for offers. So let me know if you have some.
I do have another page and that you can access it here: Glen Gabriel
So feel free to write me as I WILL receive your communication!
Influences
I have A LOT of influences. But when growing up, there was A LOT of movies that I was watching and I just couldn't help but LOVING the music! I was kinda sick and tired of hearing lyrics and the same ones over and over. So I felt that "hey! Here is some music with NO lyrics.
Therefore, my influences are: John Williams, James Horner, Jerry Goldsmith, James Newton Howard, Howard Shore, John Ottman, Danny Elfman, Hans Zimmer, Mike Oldfield, The Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, Fatboy Slim, Chrystal Method, Rage Against the Machine... With many others. The order that I gave above has NOTHING to do with preference but was just the order it came to mind.
So there you have my music influences. Thanks a million for checking my music out and I really hope you enjoy it all. Obviously I will never make the same type of music as my great influences but thanks to them I can make music.
Sounds Like
My music sounds like my own.
I guess it has this film music kind of taste. Many says that it is relaxing, others say it is ambient and people have even said it is haunting.
While I am definitely into composing music for movies, I want to continue getting this music out on radio and heard by everyone. Pop, soul, rap, rock, funk, techno, electro and country (etc., etc.) isn't the ONLY music that you should hear from the radio. I consider film type of music and just instrumental (not only classic) should be on the radio too. I don't know why it hasn't been, but if you really look at it, that is probably the MOST listened to music in the world today. I don't think there is a single soul that HASN'T watched a movie today. Well, there you go. Therefore the music should be featured out there on radio too! That is what I want to accomplish here as well.
Why "G"? What does it stand for? God? Genius? Gollum? Probably should. No, sorry friends. I am afraid that I wasn't that smart. G is actually the first letter of my first name.
Welcome to my 2nd site here on Myspace. I have this up just to fit some more songs for you. My more official and always updated Myspace page (kind of) is on Glen Gabriel but you are definitely welcome to write me any message here and listen to the music etc. No problem.
So I score movies, commercials, video games or any media you like. I answer all the messages I can and love it to hear from new people or my friends.
If you like, you can get ahold of my music on CD Baby
You will also find a lot of mention of Bia and that person is my fantastic photographer AND wife. She is a great support and FANTASTIC artist. As I mentioned in my "Band Members" section, we are working on projects together and her terrific poetry. You definitely should check out her homepage: Poetry for Life
