About Me (Must include at least one paragraph of biographical information about you as a composer) - blank or minimal answers on this line will cause your request to be rejected. Include a link to your website if you have one.
Guitar lessons in my youth, sent me in the direction of composing music. Later I taught myself a basic knowledge of piano/keyboard. I divide my time between music and the visual arts. (see my Website) I have been using MIDI and DAWS since the late 80's. I've posted a few photos of my gear. My favorites include Wayne Shorter, Hendrix, Beethoven, Copland, John Adams, Stravinsky, Brian Eno, and various fusion bands, to name a few.
I'm currently working on my first album, although I've composed and recorded for many years. I'm using the band name, Fusion Galaxy. I'm working with session musicians and I've found our Remote Sessions group to be helpful. I just recorded a local vocalist here in Phoenix, AZ.

Hey, Doug! Love Solstice. I've been absent from the forum for quite a while. I think I missed out. I don't know if you're interested in having your music played on podcasts, but if so you might check out www.soundcloudpodcast.com. I think it's relatively new, and they seem to play mostly electronic music (created on a computer). I love electronica but would hate to see live instrumental music go the way of the 8-track tape.
Best wishes.
Cheers Doug

sup man! do you have axe fx? just wanna talk about it if you have one.. I just recently bought one.
Thank you Doug! I'm really grateful for your interest and appreciation!
Thanks for the welcome Doug,
Real nice setup you have there. Great music! As anyone ever told you you look a little like Randy Newman?
Thanks Doug,
See through me was co written and produced with Alex Dunn (also on composers forum) The distortion sound is quite crackly as I'm using a fender strat (single coils) I'm working on getting a better sound.
I hope you enjoyed my music!
