About Me (MUST be more than 10 words to be approved):
The music I write has been described as Psychedelic Folk Noir, Neoclassical, Darkwave, Post-Rock and Film music. I've been producing music under the name 'The Mad Pride' - which is most commonly compared to Syd Barrett, David Bowie, Radiohead, Leonard Cohen, Frank Zappa, Erik Satie and Danny Elfman. If you're into composition for piano you may prefer to listen to 'Malice' and 'Monsters' more than my guitar-based songs. One of the recurring themes in my music is advocacy for Neurodiversity.

Rowan, I've been enjoying your music, and am especially partial to Out to Sea and Malice. (Still haven't heard all the works you've posted yet.) Some of your music so touches the heart in an almost unfathomable way. Stay with it: it is great!
You have an incredible voice. Reminds me of early Opeth :) The music is great, as well. Definetly, my kind of thing. Eerie, dark and intense. Keep up the great work!
Rowan, Thanks. I'll have to work on the percussion and bring it into to virtual instruments and then repost. I appreciate your comments, and any advice.

Happy new year to you too Rowan. Lots of amazing things for this year. Cheers Arthur
Your music has nice things going on in the layers. That was my favorite quality of Elvis Costello and the Attractions - good orchestration. peace
