Though a guitarist (since 1967) I have always had a strong fetish for synth musicks. I have been kicking around since the very first synth musicks appeared on the scene and have loved every blip and bleep. The New Age era fostered the arrival of drones and atmospheric and ethereal space music -- some being void of rhythms. This form of amorphous synth musick naturally pulled me in as it had profound effects on my inner worlds and shifted my psyche. I recognized a "power" in this genre to evoke altered consciousness. In 2002 I began experimenting with various software-based synths and sound editing programs. As a music reviewer, I have the pleasure of hearing musicks many will never have the chance to enjoy. In this deep sea of blissful inspiration I was destined to "give back" my own twisted echoes of the genre. Read more on Last.fm.
