John became a songwriter in 1997 after a illness ended his career as a muisician in the 1980's.His music covers many styles...jazz,newage,celtic folk,concert,trance,dance,eletronic,music videos and film scoring.This range of styles comes from his background as a performance musician playing these styles and more.He credits Vangelis and the Blade Runner soundtrack for crossing over to the songwriting part of music.
"In 1983 i was wondering what would i do after suffering from a servere illness and spending most of my life learning to be a performing musician,then one afternoon i watch a movie that did not do so well at the box office in 1982...Blade Runner.it seemed every song in every scene of that film fit so well...it was like i could hear what Vangelis was feeling when he wrote Memories of Green,Blade Runner's Blues and Racheal's Theme. It was the movie and that film score that it hit me,then i knew that this was something i would very much want to do"

It has open alot of doors to the independent artists.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
