For funk, hip hop, alternative, soft rock and jazz, margot du bois, rapster and numerous collab partners, the main ones being Tom King and The Ratman...
Ive been an online singer since 1999/2000. I first encountered online collaboration via Steinbergs "Rocketnetwork" which came free with Cubase back in those days.. I was totally awestruck by the fact that I could make music with people worldwide who Id never met personally before. Since those days Ive written and sung countless, completed songs and always have many others in various stages of completion. As you can see by the list I have dozens of collab partners, some of whom have become very close and dear friends in real life. Infact the first persons song I ever sang on was by Steve Pearce, who is now sadly deceased. He became one of my dearest friends and through him I met and became very close friends with the late Clint Warwick, who was the original bass player with the Moody Blues and Danny King who was one of the founder members of that band. Some of the people that I made music with in the past on and off line:- ..My dear friend, the late Clint Warwick, also Danny King and... steve pearce... sheck... lennie... bigmoon... bop... timmymacdd... jack miller... mixmaster mark... tfolie... jako2k... zauberflute... music1961...

Because the list is long its possible I may have forgotten to mention someone here, so if I have please give me a nod and Ill fix that.. Im so very thankful to everyone whos made their music freely available to me, to the many whove written and created pieces especially for me and to those whove helped me along the way, believe me there have been so many...Thankyou to all of them.. I NEVER try to sound like anyone else when I sing, always prefering what comes naturally to me. I rarely if ever sing other peoples lyrics as I can only feel what I personally feel, thats not to say I dont appreciate what other songwriters write, I love reading their lyrics and listening to their songs, those are their feelings..:-) My lyrics are generally minimal. I dont feel I need to write a book when I can say it in a sentence..:-) Im very happy to be uniquely and uncontrollably me..:-)

I don`t wanna do it you can kiss my... Hand... But it keeps coming back to me... We gotta save the land... I know it`s a burden an we really don`t need it... But we gotta save the planet... Someone`s gotta feed it... We`ve gotta stop those that bleed it... Someone`s gotta feed it... We`ve gotta stop those that bleed it... We`ve got to stop those who beat her... We`ve got to stop those `mistreat her... We`ve got to stop those who cheat her... The task is to save the world... From ourselves... yeah... The task is to save the world... From ourselves... yeah... We could take a trip into the promised land... Do you wanna come with me?... Do you wanna come with me?... Do you wanna come with me?... Do you wanna come with me?... Do you wanna come with me?... We could take a trip into the promised land.. Do you wanna come with me?... Do you wanna come with me?... We want those who`ll feed her... In the promised land you`ve got to understand... We`re gonna want those who`ll love her... Everyboby... Hand in hand, yeah... The task at hand... To find the promised land... save her from what we know... The task at hand... To find the promised land... save her from what we know... The task at hand... To find the promised land... save her from what we know... A long time ago I was given this task...
