Being in Sheffield in the early 80s was a perfect enlightenment to electronic music. Bands such as Vice Versa, ClockDVA, early Human League and Cabaret Voltaire inspired me to purchase a bright yellow, plastic-constructed synthesizer, aptly called the Wasp.
I played with various friends making music. My first semi serious band was Glass Music, and later a very brief appearance in Fatales. Mark Holmes and I formed Mein Glass Fabrik and produced two albums. Then I took a long break, just dabbling occasionally with Cubase and a Roland JX-3P. A renewed energy came in 2010 when David Burleson and I got together to create Sound of Flak.
Today I'm creating mostly solo stuff using a Roland V-Synth plugged into Logic on an iMac.
A duo with David Burleson formed in 2010, producing a wide latitude of material from ambient to rock, mainly in the experimental genre. We have one CD published titled The Unbalanced and another set of material on Soundcloud and youtube.

A duo with Jade Lauren. Jade provides vocals and I add electronic soundscapes to create interesting low-fi electronica.
