SoundClick artist: Stratus Evolved - Stratus Evolved, An alternative/modern rock band mixing in riffs from 80s metal. Just a plain hard

My Band is just me going solo. i play guitar and bass on an 8-track recorder and a drum machine. i also use this program from apple computer called "garage band" for any special effects and things.

Why this name?

My uncle had a band when he was young named Stratus. So i decided to carry on his band's name and make it a new generation and call it "Stratus Evolved".

Do you play live?

I play live sometimes with my real band. nothing much is happening lately because of busy school schedules

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

i like the system apple computer came up with that you can download any song for 99Cents... it supports your artist and is perfectly legal. www.apple.com/itunes/ for more information. anyway

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?

YES! even though its hard work, i like to be on the edge.

Your influences?

Bands like Van Halen, Metallica, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai... anything like the hard rock from the 80s/early 90s. I try to include a modern rock thing but mixing in the variation of 80s hard rock with it.
