One man, one guitar, many notes.
Heart of metal, soul of jazz, attitude of rock.
-------------------------------------------------------

I started playing guitar in june 2005 after an abstinence of 20 years (and then I was a very bad beginner, so nothing was lost but time).
I create and play music for my own pleasure, and that is giving me the freedom to create whatever I want. Explore any direction. I answer to my own taste only.
If you happen to like it too, good. That is additional bonus.
Remeber that I am an amateur, so expect technical mediocrity or worse.
Recording equipment and home studio experience is poor.
The only thing that is great is the wish to create and enjoy music.

All songs are instrumentals. And were meant to be that way, no vocals will be added. Ever.

Playing for: 4 years

Why this name?
I composed a song with that name (it just pop into my head listening to song), and I liked both song an a name. It was also the first song I composed, without playing it beforehand. It signified the end of mindless jams and aimless improvisations and beginning of structure, ambient and underlying stories.
Do you play live?
Not yet. But as I progress I feel confident that I will do that in the future.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
LaughingSkull is heard, what a blessing for the mankind ...

Why some of my downloads are no longer free? See wishlist below; gettting 'financial feedback' will let me know if my work is good enogh to deserve gear update .... In other words, buying my music means investing in tube amp, making LS sound even better (yes. it is possible.)
