Hunter S. Thompson, Jack Kerouac, Charles Bukowski, William S. Burroughs, Noam Chomsky (although only occasionally really as he's a pretty hard read, but i will admit it even if no-one else will!)

The thing that inspires me the most is being able to create anything i want to, and never giving myself any boundaries to exist within (concerning my art/music), and most of all not care what other people think of the things i create. All of the above plus whats missing are/is very important to me and i hope i never lose any of it/them be it physically or in rememberence.

About Red Cassette
Before i get started i would just like to say that MySpace deleted my front cover image because it was deemed 'sexually explicit' if like MySpace you are offended by art i have now posted a censored version to keep you all safe from this undying evil that is pencil on paper. Go back to sleep world you are safe for another day...........
Red Cassette is a person. A person who writes and performs music, in
the song vernacular. A person who performs to people who want to
listen, and often to people who don't.
Since travelling with a group of 16th century minstrels and learning
the craft of 'meta-story' telling. He performed daily across several
countries with accompaniment from the rest of the minstrels. It was
an exciting time for him, as he larnt new skills and met many new
people and had wonderful adventures. But as with all stories it had to
end evenually with the goup disbanding. The group had taught him all
he needed and the time came to move on, and to find pastures new. He
decided to go it alone. Walking for miles each day, travelling from
village to village , he would sing his 'meta-stories' to the village
people. Some village folk would not enjoy the fruits of his heartfelt
labour and would refuse to listen, discarding it as ordinary. This
never deterred the singer and he kept on day to day performing and
writing.
After many years of playing to people this person new this was his
calling, and no matter how measly the pickings were and how few the
rewards he would battle on, battle against the people who had no time
for him, battle on against the struggle of financial stability and do
the best he could with what he had: The Gift of Music. For he realised
he was merely a vessel to carry the drink, and be ready for people to
sip from and taste the flavour of what he did. So, now you place your
lips to the edge of the glass, it may not be the nicest crystal wine
glass in the world, but its an honest one. Tip it and let the drink
pour into your mouth, just to see what its like.

I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
