BIO:

Mainly guitarist in several bands, singer and composer at other times. Normal day job, band rehearsals, two album recording projects and a renovation of plumming- and watersystems in my house keep me busy now. Meantime trying to survive in this challenge. This far it looks promising!

You can listen to bands where I play:
Silverine (metal/rock/grunge/rockabilly):

Micko Hell & The Motherfuckers (70s rock with a hint of prog):

6th of August: Ah, yes, today I finally have some time to comment on songs by other challengers. Pardon me, for being so silent for a while. Cheers!

Ooops, I meant thanks for the comments on "Winter Rain" ;) Yep, I'm happy with the lyrics, the demo on the other hand, well... ;)

Hi gonzo thanks for the comments on my lyrics for batteries not included. That is my one real keeper so far

I played one of your songs on the 50/90 podcast (episode 2.) I wasn't sure you were aware of that or not. You can find it here: http://www.archive.org/download/5090PodcastShow-Episode2/5090podcast-201...

Thanks very much for the comments on my song Club 339. Much appreciated.

Hi Gonzo, thanks for your comments on "angry liar" much appreciated. You can consider me a fan, I will pop back.

hey thanks for the feedback and tips...must start gettin structure and usin a click track etc...sound ....

I could comment on every song but I'm just going to say, here, that I really enjoy every song you've posted. All your productions are very hi-fi and polished, very professional. So, when is a label picking you up and when can we expect a US tour? I want tickets.

Gonzo, Thanks for your reply. I'll look forward to hearing from you when you think you're ready for a collab. I understand completely about your personal challenge. Keep up the good work.

Hey Gonzo. Thanks for the kind comments. Well spotted about my influences. My profile confirmed the early Genesis (very much my favourite thing musically) but full marks for the Canterbury scene too - especially Caravan and Gong. Really enjoying your music too - great stuff!

Love your music! I'm a fan :D

I'm a fan,
wolf.

Heya thanks for the nice comments and listens..

I was listening to your work thinking wow, how does he arrange this so well? trying to analyse things.

You are right I am a terrible arranger/ producer and sticking a garageband beat underneath my stuff even is still quite advanced for me now! Luckily I think of 5090 as a big experiment and I expect to post a lot of rubbish. I probably will persevere with it and who knows, one day I might sort out a decent mix :D

Will keep listening, enjoying and learning :D

oops meant to post that on Maybe

this rocks.. watchlisted.. I think you need a crazy high wailing bridge section somewhere.. but otherwise its great.

Digging your music. You've got a great sound and great production chops. Looking forward to hearing more of your music.
