Someone messaged me with a question and this question is as follows,
where does my inspiration for music lie, as Its not everyday you hear music with fast arpeggios and fast moving pads, not within popular music anyway.
My first inspiration is Jean michel Jarre, he has inspired me to make advanced sequences and arpeggios, Gershon kingsley gets an honorable mention as well as Giorgio Moroder and Daft Punk (they inspired me to use vocoder as well). My inspiration for my pad sounds come from Gary Numan and Hans Zimmer, also Flock of Seagulls and Europe get a mention.
My inspiration for piano comes from Tom Waits, Adele, and a few others which you probably wouldn't have heard of. My inspiration for bass sounds comes from Gorillaz, Chase and Status and many other drum and bass oriented bands.
I get guitar from Led Zeppelin, Guns and Roses, Metallica and Pink floyd.
I guess the Beatles were an inspiration, as well as ELO and the Traveling Wilburys, both last bands included a guy called Jeff Lynne which is amazing at song writing. My drums are inspired by so many different groups I can't say were they came from. I get inspired by my own music, the synthesisers and VST's I own, and also get occasionally inspired by indie acts like Kebu and Cyberdesign. If you haven't heard of these bands, people and acts, look them up as they all have their little quirks.
Im off now to finish making a new wave track using only Arturias Synclavier and will put up some of my guitar works later on.

Later today I releasing my Rock and part metal series. which includes live playing as well as some remixing and programming, which all was done in a professional environment. I have worked with the Group of studios for nine years and have learned a considerable amount in this time. Im allowed to use their facilities to make two of my own tracks a day in between having customers come and go. I have access to Valve equipment and equipment from the 60's, 70's and 80's. I also have access to a Hammond C3 and Liesle. We have also have a plethora of VST instruments and effects. I personally own a Waves effects pack, Synclavier, Jupiter 8v, Vanguard, Piozone, Subboombass, Predator, Hydra, Pentagon, Kontakt 5 and about 7 TB of samples from my history. I run a core system with military grade motherboard, 32GB Ram 500BG SSD. I also own about 20,000Ks of hand down HiFi system including nakamichi amplifiers, Denon amp, Kef reference speakers and Adams and KRK monitors. I own a Yamaha Motif, Tyros CS-40m, Roland Phantom, V-synth, Juno-G and D, Korg Radias, M3 and Electribe. Hammond Colgar, A-110 and Liesle. I hope to continue making more synth jams and dance/EDM in the future.
