My tastes run from Vangelis to old prog/rock like the Strawbs to todays synthy bands like the Scissor Sisters, Rondo Brothers, Stars, Teddybears & Canada's Arcade Fire. My tunes cover several different Genres,I think I am a cross genre person often mixing genres within the same song. Most however have a Prog/Rock under tone, with synth based textures. Lately I have delved into orchestrations which I find challenging and interesting, the use of orchestra instruments is a steep learning experience for me. I am considering posting my orchestration numbers under a different name so that those interested in that form of music can find them with ease, btw these pieces are not classical rather most are like film scores. I live in Vancouver British Columbia Canada.
I do have history in the music biz, I have served as a vice president of a recording industry association, I have managed a few artists, promoted concerts,ran a now de-funked record label, sat on panels for the Canadian music industry, worked in radio and generally tried to give back.
