looking for chill persons to collaborate with.. i don't want to put to much hear about my style other than i prefer melodic metal which now a days can take many different forms IMO. I'm open to just about anything that someone brings to the table as long as they have a harmonic and melodic mindset and like to get others necks breaking when appropriate. NO abstract sh*t. Music with direction and purpose.
I am not a professional, i am a self taught musician who has performed in several metal bands and open mic covers bands. That being said i have a pretty established ear for music and i know what sounds good and study everyday what people want to hear and whats invoking emotion amongst listeners and other musicians around the world. I have some very modern influences and some very classical influences and i find a way to bring the sounds in my head to life even it it means learning a new technique i don't currently know. I am a perfectionist and i wont stop until a piece is finished.. once i"m hooked on the idea and the emotions behind an evolving musical piece i feel there is nothing better than experiencing that final product with others and having the privilege to present that work of art to the musical world.. I look forward to meeting awesome musicians who i can learn from and grow together with and begin pushing the boundaries of what possible musically.
