I compose, arrange, play guitars, bass, keyboards, rap, sing.. I just do my thing.. I played in the well known SF bay area fusion band CLOUDS in the 70s.. and before the days of all this bling I spent 2 years in the late 70s with THE DAVID LA FLAMME BAND touring the states.. sex drugs rock and roll.. had it all.. EVERYTHING.. but I wouldn't trade for what I got now.. my own way.. my own music.. my own thing..
an award winning composer of chamber music with university honors and published and recorded compositions, I am a jazz musician.. I've played with, among others, woody shaw, jon hendricks, julian priester and mike nock.. I'm no longer a classic cover tune or mainstream jazz artist, rather a jazz musician who believes in world music as trane did.. seeking to blend many genres into a fresh and innovative style of jazz..
after many years on the axe I've finally done a 2nd CD showing my style.. RAPSTER GUITARS IT.. 2.. 12 original songs and collabs featuring syntopia, margot du bois and TLT50.. order here direct:

Woooow, what a song! This track sounds a little bit as "Cream". Thus I love this song. Great vocals. Unfortunately I can't understand the lyrics, but the feeling on this track is very exiting. Great musix ... well done.

cool track with a new feeling of your vox. Rap-Metal a new style ? - i like it , very intresting. Great guitar and sound. Great production.
Really love this song! - It has its own life! You have mixed different means: in particular, you use different scales in your guitar playing - from traditional (natural) scales to diminished, elements of chromatic and sometimes free, i.e. atonal, in your own individual manner, which gives strong drive and blade of existence feel. I love a lot non syrup music since that is - for my opinion - more closer to the core of existence - i.e. our life, and simply I feel so... What I can add? Good theme - good text with its own sincere attitude! By the way, I share your position: these fat cats, who command on this planet, sometimes are only almost human - for sorrow...
