I work primarily with altered chords, creating chordal textured 'soundscapes' frequently pitch shifting instrument patch combinations.
Occasionally I will 'formalise' a melody line for example with tracks 'Marionettes', 'Sun, moon & stars' or 'Possessed by my own shadow'. I may then edit the recorded tracks for example shortening intro's / outro's.

My music explores the limits of this genre with a return to the 70's progressive years with experimentation at the fore.

Progressive music emerged in the 1970's with the golden period between 1969 – 74. I wished to evoke a world of sound possibilities as a theatrical stage to improvisations I was creating.

I work with sound and rhythm to gain a response to emotive feeling. My desire to create music began with improvising initially on piano and drums together with a keen interest in progressive music.
