early tape recorders and my first keyboard and guitar
I went on to lead Baby Bartok and played hundreds of gigs all over the UK. A compilation is coming soon.
During the 90's I was immersed in the
Drum and bass scene in Edinburgh.
I then helped set up the label Wonderlust in the UK and put out 3 tracks on a compilation called Radio Wonderlust. I then formed my own label Flying Mountain and went further afield.
In 2003/4 I recorded
and composed with top classical South Indian musicians in Kerala,
India living there for two years. Two records came out of this - Scale and 100 Fields along well as two books (Deriving Tonal Harmony from North Indian Ragas and some diaries)
In Oct2005 I worked with some rappers on the Elemental album from Oakland, California just after New Orleans had flooded.
Crash landing back in Manchester I got together
an electro punk band The Good Hurt.
During this time in Manchester I produced
a number of exciting projects with artists such as Louis Oak Anderson, Samasta, TheWhatSupreme, ElectroRaga, Sensei
C and many others.
At the end of 2007 I recorded Lucky Man Alive in Cario.
Currently I'm working with Boofa on a soundtrack record called 'As The White Crane Flys' - due end Janurary 09 |
