Welcome to my Soundclick music page!

My name is Daniel. I play lead electric guitar and I professionally compose my music on computer in my home studio.

I compose melodic guitar rock tracks which are heavily influnced by Hendrix, Vai and Satriani but all with my own style added! I explore a wide range of genres from metal to blues, to funk, to jazz, to 'downright alien'! There are also some of my electronic drum and bass / ambient compositions for the electro heads!

Please take time to listen to my music and leave a comment!

I hope you enjoy listening to my tunes!
Why this name?
"DHW" stems from my initials.
Do you play live?
Yes I have played in live concerts for the Princes Trust.
I am available for gig bookings so if you are looking for a session lead guitarist please message me.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Everything taken into consideration it gives independant artists a fantastic oppurtunity to promote themselves. It has changed it for the better there are so many different styles of music people have access too now to be inspired by!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes absolutely! anyone interested? just leave message and we can talk business! :-)
Band History:
People ask me how I learned how to play guitar like I do. Well I didn't start learning it straight away. I started playing clarinet and other woodwind first of all when I was 3 years old and learned how to play classical music and learned music theory from a young age. I did not move onto the guitar properly until I was about 12 years old when I wished I had started playing it when I was 3 in the first place! The reason why I love making music with the guitar is because it is the instrument where to my ears I can produce the widest range of tones styles and expressions. Once I started learning it was simply matter of learning the techniques on the guitar without having to worry about what notes to hit, because I already knew most of the theory at the time and knew what kind of a sound I wanted.
Your influences?
My main influences:
Jimi Hendrix (without him I wouldn't even be playing guitar!)
Joe Satriani (awesome guitar god)
Steve Vai (again awesome guitar god from another world!)
Gary Moore (he got me into blues big time!)
John Petrucci (again awesome guitarist of the highest calibre!)
Carlos Santana (love his simplicity and expression through melody!)
Jimmy Page (the king of riffs!)
Vinnie Moore (awesome lol!)
Eric Johnson (cleanest sound on the planet!)
Alessandro Benvenutti (the king of jazz-fusion through guitar!)
Slash (major shredder!)
Y. Malmsteen (the fastest shredder broque rock!)

...and of course the list goes on forever!
Favorite spot?
London - the capital of the world without a doubt!
