Hi everyone,
I'm a 30 y/o producer and guitarist based in London, UK primarily looking for a vocalist to collaborate with on an online/remote experimental/prog/alt rock "studio" project (i.e. not looking to rehearse/play shows, just want to record music). If there are any drummers about as well looking for something like this, please say hi!
I've recently been working on 3 demos that all are sort of one song (as I said above - prog) and you can listen to that here to get an idea of my current style: https://soundcloud.com/hooky08/lotw-full-demo/s-dtpJ9x7UgnW?utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing
My background is playing in rock bands and that's my "main" genre but I'm into a wider range of stuff. Recently I've been listening to
- Jon Hopkins
- Nils Frahm
- Rosalia
- Silk Sonic
- Rachmaninoff
- The National
- Bring Me The Horizon
And some of my favourite bands are:
- Radiohead
- Muse
- Pink Floyd
- Oceansize
- Porcupine Tree/Steven Wilson
- Interpol
- Biffy Clyro
- Queens of the Stone Age
- Thirty Seconds to Mars
- Deftones
A few points:
- Lyrics and saying something with music are also important to me, so I don't really want to write love songs or anything too "teenage angsty".
- I would like to release and promote this music but do not have any expectations for where it could go.
- I'm hoping to finish the demos above first but would really like to throw ideas around and collaborate on songs.
- I love It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, fantasy books (Patrick Rothfuss is my fave), Conan O'Brien, hiking, films that hit you deep but also Marvel movies, veganism, cats, minimalism and lots of other stuff - so there's a few talking points to get to know each other!
Please drop me a message if this sounds like something you would be interested and we can have a chat
