Jardini is the name of my favorite beach. I try to write music that "takes me back there". I write this music for myself - if you like it too, that's great. I hope you find it transports you to your favorite place in the world too.

No. Jardini is just me in my studio with a Cubase DAW. I prefer to compose and record alone.

It will level the playing field for good new artists that previously would never have gotten a listen. Pay per play will never fly. Pay per track will win out in the end, you'll see....

I am interested in selling/licensing any/all of my music. Please contact me to discuss this or if you'd like me to compose a special/unique piece of music for you.

I have been playing keyboards for over 25 years now. During the dotcom boom of 1999, I made enough money to able to put together a decent studio. I'm just now learning how to use all that wonderful equipment to its full capabilities. As I get more accostomed to my studio, you can expect to hear new and ever more wonderful tracks appear.

Progressive rock, jazz rock, jazz, classical, brass band.....

I have visted or lived and worked in many countries of the world, so I have been infulenced by many music styles.
