One man road show....lol. Mostly you'll hear some smooth sounding, laid back Jazzy kind of songs. Once in awhile, though, I get an idea for other types of music, as well.Band/artist history
Hmmmm...history?? I'm 36 (at the time of this writing)....and since it's a "solo gig" at the moment....I won't bore you with my life's story...ha ha ha. I got started back with music again after quite a long period of "nothing" about 1-1/2 years ago. I compose all the songs using FL Studio. It's amazing what can be done with any of the software "studios" today. I love it.Have you performed in front of an audience?I used to. Haven't in quite a few years. I would again if the opportunity presents itself. I loved doing it, tho. Live gigs can be soooo much fun.
Your musical influences
My influences have little bearing on the music I write. I've been into everything from Frank Zappa to Bach, with Depeche Mode, Level 42, ZZ Top, BTO and Blood, Sweat & Tears tossed in for a nice mix. There's just to many to list.... For jazz influences.... guys like Chic Corea, Flim & the BB's, Jimmy Haslip, Hilary Jones, Al deMiola, John Scofield to name a few....What equipment do you use?
FL Studio, SampleTank 2 and a small plethora of synths and FX plugins, and a Triton LEAnything else?
Anything goes, eh?? Nothing profound or prophetic....just realistic: I hope everyone enjoys what they hear. At the least, I hope it entertains. That's my goal. If you end up taking a mental journey during a piece, fantastic!!!I updated the original with the version that has the crotales in the beginning. That SHOULD be the only difference between the 2. I'll have a listen to them and see, maybe I didn't something else and not realized it. Thanks for the listen.What happened to the original 10 PM Martini?Hey Ray, 10 PM Martini is sweet. Short, but sweet. I dig it.
Peace,
JPHey Ray!!
Nice to see you around here dude!. Do you want to post the ATO songs here? If you do let me know and I will "disband" the band page (one thing less for me to do :) just let me know.)

Thanks for the kind message on my singing profile :) It means a lot to me since I only do it for fun (because I have no training, etc.) Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!
