UniQue Werkx song "Q-Werkx" is featured in Future Music Magazine Spain edition FM90!! Synthesizer/PC based music inspired by Kraftwerk, Rush (when they used a lot of synthesizers) and Jesus Christ!

Band/artist history

I started plying music around the age of 14. Started out playing guitar, then bass guitar and finally was able to afford a synthesizer! :D  I've played in my friends bands, mostly heavy metal music but couldn't really ever "get into" that style of music but we had fun playing. I first heard Kraftwerk back in 77' and have been a fan of electronik music ever since. Heard Rush back in the early 80's and was amazed by their song writing & playing skills. When Power Windows came out, the synth sounds (mostly PPG Wave 2.3) just blew me away; genius programming and best synth uses ever. I don't like their philosophy or politics but their music is awesome! Unfortunately, Geddy "fell out of love" with synthesizers and their newer stuff isn't near as pleasing to my ears as their pre 90's sound.

Have you performed in front of an audience?

No.

Your musical influences

The only music I can compare is mixing Kraftwerk, Rush (the Canadian trio) with lots of other musical influences into my own ambient type synthesizer based music.

What equipment do you use?

Crumar Performer, Poly Evolver Keyboard, Cubase 5 & 6, Absynth 5, FM8 (1/29/10), Arturia Moog Modular V2.5 (8/11/09), Waldorf Q & MW1, Waldorf PPG V3, Alesis Micron (mostly used as midi controller), Quasimidi Siruis, Roland XP-60, D-50, W-30, HS-10 and Yamaha A-5000 (rarely used). If you have a spare/extra PPG Wave 2.3 or a Ensoniq Fizmo you would like to donate, please contact me immediately. ;)

Anything else?

BIG Thanks to James Driscoll for the art werkx, where every you are -   and another note ......The goal of a true "Christian" is to love your neighbor as your self, not being judgmental (not critical of others), and to love justice, love God with all your heart and might; living in peace with God; Living by faith, not by sight. ** *** UniQue Werkx song "Q-Werkx"  is featured in Future Music Spain Magazine edition FM90!!** ***
