Bio

Wotcha all. I'm some random bloke from the south of England. I work as audio fella for teeny tiny game dev house Megadev. I'm in a band called Fine Excuses with a friend, and am desperately trying to work out a decent name for my solo stuff too. Not going well so far.

Hmm, what to do this year...I think it's going to involve lots of heavy guitars in a way that avoids dreadfulness. Can't guarantee it, though.

NOTE: I've had to commit the cardinal sin of mixing through headphones, so don't be surprised if it sounds like arse through speakers.

ALBUM TITLE SORTED: The Queen Of Salt And The Sergeant

Put a hastily assembled bit of art up there too. It's pretty hasty.

    Yeah, it's been a good one! I admire your ability to work in different styles / genres each year, and be really good at each one. I start each February with a new concept and end up doing pretty much the same thing every time! But I am pleased with my songs and I'm going to be polishing some of them up soon...

  •  sapient 2 months ago
    You, sir, are an influences-spotting genius smile

    I shall return the listening favour in the coming days!
  •  vomvorton 2 months ago
    No worries! I've still got some of your stuff to catch up on... March is all about backlogs! But today, it is too sunny for ANYTHING. Apart from drinking, and being outside.
  •  songsville 2 months ago
    Thanks for the lovely comment, random bloke!
  •  donna 2 months ago
    Thank you for your lovely comment on "I Can Wait for Happiness". smile
    I'm glad it lifted you.
    And am sorry you had a bad few months. Hope things are smoother now. smile

    Congrats for winning, I'm gonna have to check your stuff out! I have way too much time in my hands in February, to be honest...
    Thank you for the comment on *21506. I'm researching microphones to invest in for better sound quality, so I could make demos where my voice doesn't sound too distorted. In that particular song it sounds like I have a problem with pronouncing the letter S :'D Oh well... I'm glad you enjoyed the piece! The Boosh is indeed Mighty.
  •  vomvorton 2 months ago
    Yeah! No idea how I made it to 21, really. I like a few of them, too! I've got some catching up to do with your stuff, I'll be feasting on my watchlist this weekend, for sure.

    Thank You! big_smile
  •  debrandio 2 months ago
    Check, check, check, and check, love all those musicians/bands. Thanks for listening man.
  •  bradbrubaker 3 months ago
    Well, it did make me want to pull out my dusty copy of "Let Love In." How did I ever let that thing get dusty anyway?
  • ladyvinyl 3 months ago
    Hey, thanks for the comments too! Glad you liked The Famous Hunted Screams and Hug the Dark. Migraines are just like torture your own body does on you and a lot of people don't understand how terrible they are! sad
  •  radioovermoscow 3 months ago
    Thanks!
  •  vomvorton 3 months ago
    I know! Over 25,000 views now, compared to the 200-or-so I've got on YouTube in the past. Bloody mental - I guess the internet likes cats. And who can blame it?
  •  gslade 3 months ago
    My gears are seemingly not turning but I feel a spark coming pretty soon.
  • theawkwardsleep 3 months ago
    sounds interesting.
  • cahm 4 months ago
    meeeetal?? \m/
  •  vomvorton 4 months ago
    That's good to hear! Heavy guitars and piano samples sounds like an interesting combo - looking forward to whatever you come up with, as per usual.
