SoundClick artist: Gordon Simmons - Ambient Space Music envisioned and created to transport listeners through outer and inner space.

My music is in the Space genre--ambient, hypnotic, without percussion. My vision is to create beautiful synthesizer and acoustic pieces that transport the listener to new worlds.

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

I was recently reminded by a friend that, in terms of equipment, I have about 10 times the firepower that the Beatles had when they recorded Sgt. Pepper. Now, if I had one hundredth of that talent . . .

Modern equipment, including mediums like the Internet, have made it incredibly easy to produce music. But I think it's still true that the real job of the musician is to touch people's souls--however that's done.
