UK Born now Australian, I have always had a passion for music, if not conventional.
In school I was never interested in theory and loathed learning the classical Guitar, but did like listening to my parents albums “Switched on Bach” and “Clockwork Orange” by Walter Carlos / now Wendy Carlos. (he/she also wrote the Tron sound track).
In my teens I started to get interested in Computers, with my first being a Commodore VIC 20. I then progressed onto the BBC Micro (yes a computer made by the B.B.C. TV station), where I purchased a “Hybrid Music System” Music 500. This was a powerful language based multi Timbrel sequencer, very advanced for the 80’s. Appealing more to the techies.
My main influences at this time coming from Jean Michael Jarre’s Oxygene and a less well known Michael Shreeve and then Tangarine Dream. In my teens great influences including the DX7 bunch Howard Jones, Nick Kershaw, Human League, Depeche Mode, Yazoo and Mike Oldfield.
It wasn’t until my college days that I actually managed to buy a Roland D10 and started using it with an Atari ST and Steinberg’s base Cubase (1989). I created some great track back then but all lost in time and in the floppy disk era! - Over the years computer based music has always fascinated me including such areas as even the Commodore 64 , SID chip.
Always being interested in sound , graphic and computers I have always tried to merge the forms in some way or another. Creating many works for companies over the years including presentation animations in 3DMAX based on logos and small graphic pieces.
