After nearly 10 years away from music, the life dramas and ex-wife are behind me. So last year I decided to get back into the swing of things and this was the second of about 20 song ideas I composed.
Show all (14)
The band was originally called All In One and was formed in the late 80s. A lot of the songs featured were performed solely by me or by me and a great singer called Michelle. We were heavily into New Jack Swing/hip-hop soul & Funk (Punkfunk), whereas (at the time) the rest of band believed that sort of music was going nowhere and just wanted to do UK soul.
I wrote and performed all of the songs myself. A couple of companies attempted to sign us but being an ignorant group of black Londoners we imploded the second the contracts came through the post.
I've probably written over 1000 songs and have a high "scrap-rate" because I'm fussy. I only like people to hear songs of mine that I still like a few weeks down the road.Band/artist history
Formed in about 1988, the band featured a number of lead vocalists (namely myself, Michelle and Jasmin). Steven on guitar/ keyboards, myself on bass/ keyboards and other guest musicians such as Kelvin & Michael on drums.Have you performed in front of an audience?We did play live many years ago but not anymore. These days I write & produce for other artists.
Your musical influences
Prince, James Brown, Terry Lewis & Jimmy Jam, Rod Temperton, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Jodeci, Teddy Riley, George Clinton, Steely Dan, The Beatles, My Father and Grandfather.What equipment do you use?
Mostly computer based these days. Virtual instruments, etc. But the songs I've put on this website were recorded using mostly Roland & Casio Keyboards, an Atari ST and a Tascam Porta 05 4 track (I think that's what it was called).Anything else?
I've been working in the studio in Australia with a number of different artists with varying levels of success.
I've posted these songs in memory of my father who passed away just before Christmas. It's kind of in memory of the many weekends I chose to spend with him talking about old times in Jamaica when I could have been working on my music. I now know I made the right choice and wouldn't give up those memories for anything. Love you dad......Contact
