Biography

Hi Everyone,

I am quite new to music composition, as I just recently retired after 30-years in the military. I didn't have any formal music training, so I've had to learn by doing it...thus far its been a wonderful trip. I compose mostly easy-listening jazz-like music. Although, I have also put together some rock, techno, ambient, and kind of wild music too! As I mentioned before, I am new to composition - two years now. So, I really value your opinions on my creations -- as I feel it is the only way to improve!

Take care all - and thanks for listening!

Mike
