I used to play in a few bands in glasgow, but it was mostly covers and i got bored playing other peoples stuff. I was allways a keen home recorder with a un-trusty four track, i bought a magazine on computermusic and realised there was more to it than cheesy dance music so, i thought that i would buy a p.c. I got a demo of fruity loops and was amazed that i could own and play near enough every synth i loved(including a mellotron) for free and i wouldn't need a aircraft hanger to store them all!!!!
Why this name?
I,m a spark to trade and i like to mess with soft synths
Do you play live?
Wouldn't mind getting together with others for a jam, also internet colabarations are welcome!
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I think it will change it for the good, i don't really believe in sites like kazza ect. but the prices that the record companies set are too high.

I think bands like marillion are going in the right direction and if you know the money is going to a band you like then you dont mind paying it.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
there is as much chance of that as there is me growing hair!!!!
Your influences?
Steve Hackett is the guitar god. also like everything progressive and almost everything else.
I dont think there is any bad music, it's just a matter of taste
Favorite spot?
Glasgow SECC on the 17th of December 1985. or at the top of a munro
Equipment used:
cubase sx, FL studio, lots of soft synths. Evolution midi controller.
ibanez and Gordon Smith guitars. Terratec DMX 6 fire, amplitube, guitar rig, cortex, rusty old stomp boxes and a crap internet desk top mike!!!
Anything else...?
