Galactic Anthems
Galactic Anthems is a solo project. It's just me, my computer, my gear and my imagination.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Galactic Anthems has been a solo music project for the past decade. I've written tunes in a variety of styles, and plan in the future to release CD's from the "vaults", but I really love what is loosely called ambient electronic music and am concentrating on that style.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Haven't played live in about 10 years. At that time I was playing in a two man electronic band called Atlas. We played a few gigs in the LA area for a couple of years. I don't have any plans for live performance at this time, but who knows in the future?
Your musical influences
I've been influenced by a lot of different music, from 20th century classical, to 60's and 70's progressive rock, to electronic music starting with Walter (now Wendy) Carlos and Tangerine Dream in the 70's.
What equipment do you use?
PowerMac G5, Digital Performer, Reason, a variety of soft synths, and a variety of older hardware synths such as DX7, JX-8P, Proteus I and II, Matrix 6, and Emax.
Anything else?
I was just named by Keyboard Magazine as the "Unsigned Artist of the Month" in the August 2007 issue.
