Myuzishin
Myuzishin attempts to create sonic novels, and each song hopes to evoke a story in the listener. Not necessarily My story, but a story of the listener's making. In this way, the music is freely interpreted by the audience, rather than directed by the artist.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I started out on piano at around 6, got my first guitar at 15. Been ping-pongin back and forth between them most of the time since then, but now I have everything I need so I do it all myself.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I don't, really. I've done the occasional Open Mike nights and been on stage with some great players from MusicianWar, but I really prefer to see the stage from in front of it.
Your musical influences
I like almost anything except cookie-monster vocals in some of the metal out there these days. But my preferences and influences tend to be in the 70's and 80's Rock genre, with some Plasmatics and Sade mixed in. My all-Time favorite band is Tokyo Jihen.
What equipment do you use?
I have a Vester (Jackson copy) that I've used for 25 years or so. Also a couple of Ibanez's (RG, Artcore), a Schecter 5-string bass, Gibson Les Paul (Goth), a Yamaha ES6 synth, Behringer mixer and monitors, Sonar X3 and various VSTs.
Anything else?
I'm extremely lazy, so its along stretch between new tunes! Be patient.
