EdwardsBand
Started with modular synths in the late 70's. Played keyboards in a couple of minor bands. I have always been a songwriter, mainly the music, but sometimes the lyrics when the emotion is right. Just love music in general, it heals my soul.Band/artist history
I started with a little Casio keyboard, and quickly found an old Yamaha CS-80. That lead me into the synthesis, and all the expected keyboards followed. Step sequencers entirely changed my mode of composition for many years, and I still incorporate those elements in my current workflow. I make music because I enjoy seeing the pleasure that a well-written melody or hot rhythm can bring to a dancer/listener.Have you performed in front of an audience?In the early 80's I was in a band that enjoyed minor success. We had two summer tours and then the drummers' wife got pregnant, and that was that. I got a 9 to 5 job, but music always was in my life.
Your musical influences
I have so many, and so many obscure, influences. The more mainstream ones would be Klaus Schulze, Jean Michael Jarre, pretty much anyone who was into creating innovative, avant-garde music.What equipment do you use?
Oh boy. My DAW is Logic Pro. I have several midi controllers, an old Ensoniq ESQ2 that still drives my Yamaha CS50 ( I sold the CS80, ouch). Everything else comes from audio effects and everything in Logic, plus 3rd part plugins and VSTIs. Value is through the roof, I really don't know.Anything else?
I pretty much follow my own road. My tracks can range from standard pop tunes to EDM and beyond. Whatever mood strikes me is what I write. Music is life to me.Admin
