   About Rael





Hello, I'm Rael. I'm a composer and musician, both for fun and as a job. My website is at www.raeljones.com, and is probably much more up to date than this.

The music on this Myspace page is largely random. Pieces I've done in studios as a solo artist, playing all the instruments in a trying-to-be-Mike-Oldfield-and-Jon-Brion kind of way. Bits of things I've made at home using household objects, or new quirky instruments and guitar pedals that I JUST CAN'T STOP BUYING. That kind of thing.


I play guitar in a "Quasi Prog Rock" band called Thumpermonkey. Here are links to our Myspace and Website. Our new album is being released through Genin Records Xmas 2009.

Some Old Stuff

I was the lead singer / guitarist in a power-prog-pop 3 piece called Happy Eggs.




I have been known to do remixes, and sometimes produce more electronic / filthy sonic offerings.

My remix / re-record of "We Are the Glamourous" by Electro act "Sma5h TV" is on their myspace here.
I did a similar thing to a track called "Wheezyboy", originally by an early incarnation of Thumpermonkey, long before I joined the line up more recently. You can hear that on our site here...

I also did some collaborative writing / experimentation with lead singer Michael Woodman, calling the resulting output Shinju, which also has its own legacy myspace here.



Back when metal was popular, I was in a band called Mistaken I.D. for a few years.
Check out my incredibly inappropriate drum masturbation.
I was also the drummer for Revere for a time back in 2004.
