dpote
Welcome. This is dpote, from New Mexico. We'll be exploring some things here. Kind of like an aural archeological expedition. Sit back, and have a listen. I hope you dig what you hear.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I started on the island of Guam, in the 80's. A band called Gillotine. You probably heard of them. We had quite a few albums out on the old ILS label.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes, currently in a local band. I love playing live for the instant feedback from listeners. I recall playing 'Paranoid', and forgetting the words, so our sound man was singing from the back of the venue through the monitors. Great fun!
Your musical influences
I like instrumental artists like Tomo Fujita, and foreign music like Karel Zich.
Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Steel Pulse, and Burning Spear are inspirations to me.
What equipment do you use?
Fender guitars and amp, Orange amps, Digitech effects.
